When a perfectly competitive market is in long-run equilibrium: O firms have an incentive to enter the market. O firms have an incentive to leave the market. O no firm has an incentive to enter or leave the market. When a firm operating in a perfectly competitive market is experiencing losses, it should continue operations if: O P< AVC O P=AVC O P > AVC If, in a perfectly competitive market, P= (a firm's) ATC, then the firm: earns an...

4. Deriving the short-run supply curve Consider the perfectly competitive market for dress shirts. The following graph shows the marginal cost (MC), average total cost (ATC), and average variable cost (AVC) curves for a typical firm in the industry. that when the price is exactly equal to the average variable cost, the firm is indifferent between producing zero shirts and the profit-maximizing quantity. Also, indicate whether the firm will produce, shut down, or be indifferent between the two in the short run....

1. Assume the market for tortillas is perfectly competitive. The market supply and demand curves for tortillas are given as follows: Supply curve: P = 0.20 Demand curve: P = 1100 – 20 The short-run total cost curve for a typical tortilla factory, ABC, is: TC = 500 + 10 + 4.522 a) Determine the market equilibrium price and quantity. b) Determine the profit-maximizing level of output for factory ABC. c) Assuming that all of the factories are identical, how...

1. What is their current average revenue per unit?
2. What is their profit maximizing level of output and
profit?
3. If the market clearing price drops to $10.00 per unit,
should they continue to produce in the short run if they wish to

Consider the competitive market for dress shirts. The following
graph shows the marginal cost (MC), average total cost (ATC), and
average variable cost (AVC) curves for a typical firm in the
industry.
On the following graph, use the orange points (square
symbol) to plot points along the portion of the
firm's short-run supply curve that corresponds to
prices where there is positive output. (Note: You
are given more points to plot than you need.)
At the current short-run market price,...

Consider the perfectly competitive market for sports jackets. The following graph shows the marginal cost (MC), average total cost (ATC), and average variable cost (AVC) curves for a typical firm in the industry. For each price in the following table, use the graph to determine the number of jackets this firm would produce in order to maximize its profit. Assume that when the price is exactly equal to the average variable cost, the firm is indifferent between producing zero jackets and...

2. In a perfectly competitive market, there are initially economic profits. Firm entry causes the market supply curve to shift rightwards, but the market does not reach its long run state. a. Draw two corresponding graphs, side-by-side, that allustrate this shift. One is the market supply and demand graph, and the other is the profit-maximizing production choice of a typical firm. Using your graph, explain b. How do price and marginal revenue change as firms enter c. How do MC...
