3. Why is the equality of marginal revenue and marginal cost essential for profit maximization in...
The graph to the right shows the Marginal Cost (MC), Average Total Cost (ATC), and Marginal Revenue (MR) curves for a perfectly (or purely) competitive firm. Note that the Demand (D) curve is the same as the MR curve for such a MR/MC ($) firm. Assume that the cost curves here are representative of other firms in the industry. Given the current price, this firm will: earn a positive profit. earn a negative profit. earn zero economic profit. In the...

Statement 1: For a monopoly firm, the marginal revenue curve is the same as the demand curve for its product. Statement 2: A monopolist uses the same profit maximization rule that the perfectly competitive firm uses. Both statements (1) and (2) are false. Both statements (1) and (2) are true. Statement (1) is true; statement (2) is false. Statement (1) is false; statement (2) is true. Which of the following is TRUE of the model of perfect competition? There are...
50 A MC The accompanying graph depicts average total cost (ATC), marginal cost (MC), marginal revenue (M), and demand (D) facing a monopolistically competitive firm.

Will the firm continue to produce or shut down? Explain your answer.
ttempts: ampts: 0 Keep the Highest: 0/3 3. Profit maximization using total cost and total revenue curves Suppose Sean runs a small business that manufactures shirts. Assume that the market for shirts is a competitive market, and the market price is $20 per shirt. The following graph shows Sean's total cost curve. Use the blue points (circle symbol) to plot total revenue and the green points (triangle symbol) to plot profit for shirts quantities zero through seven (inclusive) that Sean...
1l. If a monopolistically competitive firm is incurring losses, then at the profit-max a price is above the average total cost curve. b. price is below the average total cost curve c. price is equal to marginal revenue. d. price is less than marginal revenue. e. average total cost equals marginal cost. Both competitive and monopolistically competitive firms a. can maximize profit by raising price. b. cannot control or set their own price c. can maximize profit by producing to...
33. Gas’n'Go is one of the 20 gas stations in Lafayette, California. The following diagram shows the demand curve (D), marginal revenue curve (MR), marginal cost curve (MC) and average total cost curve (ATC) for GasN'Go. Assume that the market for gasoline is a monopolistically competitive market. Part 1: Label all curves and identify and label the initial price (P1) and quantity (Q1). Part 2: Suppose that the price of oil increases, causing Gas'n'Go's production costs to also increase (oil...
