Suppose that a firm produces baseball bats in a monopolistically competitive market. The following graph shows its demand curve, marginal revenue (MR) curve, marginal cost (MC) curve, and average total cost (ATC) curve.
3. Is monopolistic competition efficient? Suppose that a firm produces baseball bats in a monopolistically competitive market. The following graph shows its demand curve, marginal revenue (MR) curve, marginal cost (MC) curve, and average total cost (ATC) curve. Place a black point (plus symbol) on the graph to indicate the long-run monopolistically competitive equilibrium price and quantity for this firm. Next, place a grey point (star symbol) to indicate the minimum average total cost the firm faces and the quantity associated with...

Suppose that a firm produces tennis racquets in a monopolistically competitive market. The following graph shows its demand curve (D), marginal revenue curve (MR), marginal cost curve (MC), and long-run average cost curve (LRAC). Assume that all firms in the industry face the same cost structure.Place the tan point (dash symbol) on the graph to indicate the long-run monopolistically competitive equmbrium price and quantity for this firm. Next, place the purple point (diamond symbol) to indicate the point at which...
