Question 7 5 pts Let's say that you know the following information for an oligopoly firm: Total Revenue equals $200 million. Variable Costs are $170 million. Fixed Costs equal $20 million. The firm is currently producing 2,000 products at the MC = MR point (and the MC curve is rising). What recommendation do you have for this firm? Assuming the firm's costs remain the same, the firm should produce fewer products in order to decrease its marginal costs. The profit...
