Homework Answers
(1) (B) each firm will earn $500 as economic profit.
total unit sold 100000
no of firm 1000
no of unit produced by each firm = 100000/1000= 100
total revenue = 100*20=2000
cost per unit = 15*100=1500
economic profit = TR- TVC= 2000-1500 = $500
2(D)
reason when some of the firm exit from industry it leads to fall in the quantity of unit and it leads to increase in equilibrium price.
3(A)
- New firms enter supply increases from S1 to S2 until the price falls

Suppose the market for canola oil is perfectly competitive. There are 1,000 firms in the market, each of which have a fixed cost of FC=2 and a marginal cost of MC= 1+Q, where q is quantity produced by an individual firm. Let QS denote the total quantity supplied in the market. The market demand is QD= 15,250-250P A) Find the market supply equation, that is write QS as a function of price P B)What is the equilibrium price? What is...
