A perfectly competitive, profit maximizing firm earns zero economic profit in the long run. The firm’s total cost is: TC = a + bQ2. Use only the cost curve given. Determine mathematically the level of output the firm will produce in the long run. Show mathematically if this amount differs from the amount of output the firm would produce in the short run. Explain why a perfectly competitive firm earns zero economic profit in the long run.
In the long run, a firm in a perfectly competitive market earns zero economic profit, so the opportunity in the short run to enjoy positive economic profits will cause existing firms to increase output and new firms to enter the market.

QUESTION 8 Which of the following statements best describes firms under monopolistic competition? Profits will be positive in the long run. Price always equals average variable cost. In the long run, positive economic profit will be eliminated. Marginal revenue equals minimum average total cost in the short run. QUESTION 9 Which of the following...
QUESTION 5 A monopolistically competitive firm will: maximize profits by producing where MR = MC. not likely earn an economic profit in the long run. shut down in the short run if price is less than average variable cost. all of the above. QUESTION 6 A monopolistic competitive firm is inefficient because the firm: earns positive economic profit in the long run. is producing at an output corresponding to the condition that marginal cost equals price. is not maximizing its...
Suppose there is a monopolistically competitive market with n identical firms, such that each firm produces the same quantity, q. Further, the market is in the monopolistically competitive long-run equilibrium. You are given the following: Inverse market demand: P 10-Q Total market output: Qnxq Marginal revenue: MR 10n+ 1)xq Total cost: C(q)-5+q Marginal cost: MC 2xq In long-run equilibrium, each firm earns zero economic profit. In long-run equilibrium, the number of firms, n, is and each firm produces units) of...

Exhibit 10-3 A monopolistic competitive firm in the long run LRAC Price, costs, and revenue (dollars) 0 200 400 600 800 1,000 Quantity of output (units per week) As presented in Exhibit 10-3, the long-run profit- maximizing output for the monopolistic competitive firm is: zero units per week. 200 units per week. 400 units per week. 600 units per week. 800 units per week
Draw a diagram showing a competitive firm operating with zero economic profit where P = LAC. If the price fell slightly, would the firm immediately go out of business? Why or why not? If only one firm is producing a particular product, we know that price will be above marginal cost. True or false? Explain.
