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...

Assume a perfectly competitive firm sells its output for $150 per unit. At its current 2,000 units of output, marginal cost is $140 and increasing, and average variable cost is $120. Assuming it wants to maximize its profits, it should: u increase output. o decrease output, but not shut down. u maintain its current output rate. shut down.

In the short run, a perfectly competitive firm produces output using capital services (a fixed input) and labour services (a variable input). At its profit-maximizing level of output, the marginal product of labour is equal to the average product of labour. a. What is the relationship between this firm's average variable cost and its marginal cost? O Average variable cost is higher than marginal cost O Average variable cost equals marginal cost O Average variable cost is less than marginal...

the
firm faces a constant price (P) of $60
A firm in a perfectly competitive market sells all its product (Q) at a constant price (P) of $60. Suppose the total cost function (TC) for this firm is described by the following equation: 2 3 TC(Q) = 128 + 69Q - 140 + Q (a)Form the profit function and determine the output that maximizes the firm's profit. Evaluate the second order condition to assure that profit is maximized at this...
