The part of MC curve above the minimum AVC ($15) is the supply curve.
For 10 firms multiply Q at each level by 10.
For 15 firms multiply Q at each level by 15.
for 20 firms multiply Q at each level by 20.
If there were 10 firms in this market, the short run equilibrium Price of steel would be $40. Firms will earn POSITIVE ECONOMIC PROFIT and in the long run firms would ENTER THE MARKET
reason- SUPPLY EQUALS DEMAND When P=$40 . At this level P is greater than ATC, Profit = (P-ATC) Q. If P>ATC, Profit are positive which attracts new firms in the market.
Because you know perfectly competitive firm earns NORMAL PROFIT. Long run equilibrium Price must be $30. There will be 15 firms in the long run.
reason- In the long run, P=Min ATC=$30. $30 Is equilibrium Price in case of 15 firms.
