Since the industry is in the long run equilibrium so the price should be equal to the minimum ATC
The market price = 22.75

3) Perfect Competition (5 points) The data in the table below are the monthly average variable costs (AVC), average total costs (ATC), and marginal costs (MC) for Alpacky, a typical alpaca wool-manufacturing firm in Peru. The alpaca wool industry is competitive.For each market price given below, give the profit-maximizing output level and state whether Alpacky's profits are positive, negative, or zero. Also state whether Alpacky should produce or shut down in the short run. a. If the market price is $22... i. what...

The marginal costs (MC), average variable costs (AVC), and average total costs (ATC) for a monopoly are shown in the figure below. The figure also shows the demand curve (D) and the marginal revenue curve (MR) for this market. Instructions: Use the tools provided to plot the profit-maximizing quantity (Q), the profit-maximizing price (P), the profit (Profit), and the deadweight loss (DWL). Note that the deadweight loss will be only approximate due to the curvature of the marginal cost curve....

Consider the competitive market for halogen lamps. 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 lamps 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 lamps and the...
