Homework Answers
A. P/14
Explanation: C(Q) = 7Q2
So, Marginal cost = d/dQ (7Q2) = 14Q.
In perfect competition, marginal cost = marginal revenie i.e. price
So, P = 14Q
i.e. Q = P/14

Briefly discuss a strategy a firm operating in a perfectly competitive market must take to sustain its profit outlook. [3 Marks] A firm operating in a competitive market has the following cost function C = 10 + 2Q2. The market demand is Q = 40 – 2P and equilibrium price of output is K20. Calculate the output the firm must to maximize its profits. [3 Marks] Find the price the firm must charge to maximize profits. [2 Marks]

Suppose you are analyzing a firm operating in a perfectly competitive market. You know the market demand curve is P = 300 - Q and the market supply curve is P = -525 + 2Q. You also know that the cost function of the firm is: C (Q) = -1/6Q^3 - 1/2^2 + 21Q + 100/3. Using this information find A. the quantity that will maximize profits. B. If the firm is making a profit or suffering loss

In a perfectly competitive market, a firm has the following short-run total cost function: C(q)=16+4q+q2 The market demand is Q(p)=220-p a. Show that marginal cost curve passes through the minimum point of average cost curve. Draw a figure to show it. b. Find the firm’s individual short-run supply function. Draw it on the above figure. For the following questions, suppose that there are currently 10 identical firms in this market. c. What is the market supply curve? What are the...
