(11) True
Economic profit = Revenue - All explicit costs - All implicit costs
(12) False
Zero economic profit is an indifference point: Firm may decide to shut down or decide to continue.
(13) (C)
In long run, all inputs are variable.
(14) (E)
In short run, firm will shut down if price is less than AVC and will continue producing if price is more than AVC.

Fixed costs are irrelevant in the decision about whether to shut down production in the short run because fixed costs: do not affect, and are not affected by, the quantity the firm produces. can be paid off over time. only change when production changes only change in the short run |If a profit-maximizing perfectly competitive firm shuts down in the short run, it incurs no losses. it incurs an economic loss equal to total fixed cost. its profit equals zero....

Profits will always be maximized when total revenue equals total cost =T or F If marginal revenue for an extra unit is positive, then selling the extra unit causes total revenue to rise. T or F Given a downward-sloping demand curve and positive marginal costs, profit-maximizing firms will always sell less output at higher prices than will revenue-maximizing firms. T or F Marginal profit is the difference between marginal revenue and marginal cost, and will always equal zero at the...
For a firm, marginal revenue minus marginal cost is equal to: a) profit b) average total cost c) change in profit d) change in average revenue
