Answer
Option c
the cheese is an input for pizza which increases the input cost and shifts the marginal cost to up which decreases output at the profit-maximizing level as the firm produces at MR=MC
where MR is downward sloping and MC is upward sloping where MC shifts UP then it cut the MR at lower output level.

A price-taking firm in a perfectly competitive market faces a market price of $4. The firm's marginal cost function is MC(Q) = 2 + aQ, where "a" is a positive number. As "a" increases, the firm's profit-maximizing quantity increases, decreases, or does not change?

Suppose that a perfectly competitive firm faces a market price of $ 12 12 per unit, and at this price the upward-sloping portion of the firm's marginal cost curve crosses its marginal revenue curve at an output level of 1 comma 800 1,800 units. If the firm produces 1 comma 800 1,800 units, its average variable costs equal $ 7.00 7.00 per unit, and its average fixed costs equal $ 1.00 1.00 per unit. What is the firm's profit-maximizing (or...

1. WidgetWorks operates in perfectly competitive markets. It hires an extra worker at $24 an hour and each hour he produces six widgets, which will sell for $10 apiece. Is WidgetWorks at its profit-maximizing output level? A. Yes, because it is making a profit on the widgets it has just produced B. No, because the marginal revenue product is too high. C. No, it should hire more workers and increase production. D. No, it should hire fewer workers and increase...

The demand curve for a perfectly competitive firm options: is upward sloping. is perfectly horizontal. is perfectly vertical. maybe downward or upward sloping, depending upon the type of product offered for sale. In the short run, the best policy for a perfectly competitive firm is to Question 17 options: shut down its operation if the price ever falls below average total cost. produce and sell its product as long as price is greater than average variable cost. shut down its...

A firm operates in a perfectly competitive market with a price of P = 50 for the product. TVC = 0.5Q3 − 18Q2 + 170Q Q (output) TFC = 300. Write an equation expressing the firm’s total revenue (TR) as function of Q. Write an equation expressing the firm’s total cost (TC), as a function of Q. Write an equation expressing the firm’s profit (π), as a function of Q.Find the first-order condition for the firm’s profit-maximization decision. Find the...

please explain.
A corporation will most likely increase the price of its output if the; supply curve shifts to the right. quantity supplied of the good exceeds the quantity demanded. demand curve shifts to the left. quantity demanded of the good exceeds the quantity supplied. Suppose that you discover that, ceteris paribus, when the price of tomatoes increases, the demand for bleu cheese decreases. From this you conclude that: tomatoes are inferior goods and blue cheese is a normal good....

13. If Firm A operates in a perfectly competitive industry, with market price = $1,200/unit. If Firm A’s total cost function is given by TC(q)= 20q^2+ 80q + 200, find Firm A’s profit maximizing level of output. 14. Using the information from the above question: is the market in which Firm A is selling its output currently in long run equilibrium?

The market demand curve of a local pizza is QD= 100 − 4P. The total cost curve of Pat’s Pizza Kitchen is TC = 0.5Q2 + Q+5. Assuming Pat’s Pizza is doing business in a competitive industry and the price of the pizza is $10 for all firms. Using Excel to calculate the firm’s total revenue, total cost, and profit for q = 1 to q = 25 in increments of 1. (Note: your answers should be rounding decimals to...
