3. A firm in a perfectly competitive market will produce no output in the short run if the price is below $18 but will produce if the price is above $18. The smallest quantity they will produce in the short run is 8. Firms will earn 0 economic profit if the price is $74 and its profit maximizing quantity is 12 at that price. The firm’s fixed cost is $576. Assume the good can be produced in continuous quantities. Draw...

Suppose that a competitive firm's marginal cost of producing output q (MC) is given by MC(q) = 3 + 2q. Assume that the market price (P) of the firm's product is $15. What level of output (q) will the firm produce? The firm will produce units of output. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.) What is the firm's producer surplus? Producer surplus (PS) is $ . (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.) Suppose that the average...

Short-Run Firm Supply. Florida is the biggest sugar-producing state, but Michigan and Minnesota are home to thousands of sugar beet growers. Sugar prices in the United States average about 20¢ per pound, or more than double the worldwide average of less than 10¢ per pound given import quotas that restrict imports to about 15 percent of the U.S. market. Still, the industry is perfectly competitive for U.S. growers who take the market price of 20¢ as fixed. Thus, P =...

Suppose that 3W is a representative firm operating in a perfectly competitive industry. 3W's total cost of production is given by TC = 100+q+. a. If the output price is $400, what is 3W's short-run profit-maximizing level of output? b. What is 3W's profit at that price? Graph your results from a) and b). (Hint: your graph needs to include the MR, MC, and ATC curves.)
