Answer
The perfectly competitive firm produces at MC=P
at MC=P, the quantity is 75 boxes
ATC=$22
Profit=(P-ATC)*Q=(34-22)*75=900
The profit is $900
The Apple growers can earn profit price above min(ATC) and the
minimum average total cost is $20=price

3. A firm in a perfectly competitive market will produce no output in the short run if the price is below $18 but will produce if the price is above $18. The smallest quantity they will produce in the short run is 8. Firms will earn 0 economic profit if the price is $74 and its profit maximizing quantity is 12 at that price. The firm’s fixed cost is $576. Assume the good can be produced in continuous quantities. Draw...

Assume that apples are produced in a perfectly competitive market. Grande’s Orchard is a typical firm that grows and sells apples. Currently, Grande earns zero economic profit, and the market price of apples is $10 per bushel. (a) Draw a correctly labeled graph showing Grande’s demand curve, average total cost curve, and marginal cost curve, and show the profit-maximizing quantity, labeled QG . (b) Suppose an increase in the popularity of apple cider increases the demand for apples. How will...

Suppose that 3W is a representative firm operating in a perfectly competitive industry. 3W's total cost of production is given by TC = 100+q+. a. If the output price is $400, what is 3W's short-run profit-maximizing level of output? b. What is 3W's profit at that price? Graph your results from a) and b).
