3. There are two types of firms in an industry. Type 1 firms have the costs TC() 91) 6250.25i and type 2 firms have costs TC(92) 500052. The fixed costs for both types of firms are NOT sunk (e) If consumers demand is Q"(p) 2400 10p what is the short-run equilibrium price and quantity? What are the long-run equilibrium price, quantity, and number of firms?
5. Short-run marginal costs for firms "A" and "B" are given by SMC = 204 and SMC = 498. Assume that these firms behave under the rules of perfect competition. a. Using diagrams, derive the market supply curve for this industry. Market demand is given by D = 60-0.750. Solve for the equilibrium price, equilibrium quantity and the quantity supplied by each firm.
3. A market consists of 100 identical firms and the market demand curve is given by D(P) = 60 - P. Each firm has a short-run total cost curve STC(q)-0.1+150q2. What is the short-run equilibrium price and quantity in this market? 4. The short-run marginal cost curves of two types of firms in an industry are given as MC1 = 3q and MC2 = 5q respectively. There are 100 firms of each type. If these firms behave competitively, determine the...
1. Suppose firms in a perfectly competitive, constant cost (i.e., flat LR supply curve), industry face monthly demand given by Qp = 1000 - P and have access to a production technology that yields a cost function TC(Q:) = 40? + 100Qi + 100 where Q denotes units produced per month. Assume the only difference between short-run and long-run costs is T C(0) = 100 in the short run and TC(O) = 0 in the long run (which is consistent...
1. The bolt-making industry has 20 identical firms, each one has a short-run total cost function TC(q) 16 + q2 (a) What is the short-run supply of each firm? (b) The market demand is QD(p) = 110-p. What is the short-run equilibrium price and quantity supplied by each firm? Calculate each firm's profit. (c) Suppose that the number of firms increases to 25. What is the short-run equilibrium price and quantity supplied by each firm? Calculate each firm's profit
6. Deriving the short-run supply 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. COSTS (Dollars) AVC МСП OHH 0 10 90 100 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 QUANTITY (Thousands of lamps) On the following graph, use the orange points (square symbol) to plot points along the portion of the firm's short-run supply curve...

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 100 90 70 60 ATC 50 40 30 20 AVC 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....
37. If every firm in a perfectly competitive industry experiences the same technological improvement, then A. the firm's short-run supply curves will shift to the right. B. the industry's short-run supply curve will shift to the right. C. the industry's long-run supply curve will shift downward or to the right D. All of the above statements are true. E. Only A and B are true. D, a, ap, o, 38. In a perfectly competitive, constant-cost industry, the long-run equilibrium price...
21. The widget industry is a constant-cost industry, so that all firms are identical. The following chart shows the industry-wide demand curve and the marginal cost curve of a typical firm: Industry-Wide Demand Price ($) Quantity Firm's Marginal Cost Curve Quantity Marginal Cost ($) 500 oooooow 400 300 200 100 + LOCO cocoon The industry is in long-run equilibrium and there are 100 fims. a. What are the fixed costs at each firm? b. What is the price of a...
1. (18pts) Suppose there are 100 firms in a perfectly competitive industry. Short run marginal costs for each firm are given by SMC = q + 2 and market demand is given by Qd = 1000-20P (5pts) Calculate the short run equilibrium price and quantity for each firm.. b. (3pts) Suppose each firm has a U-shaped, long-run average cost curve that reaches a minimum of $10. Calculate the long run equilibrium price and the total industry output.. (4pts) What is...
