12. For a monopolistically competitive firm,
the long-run equilibrium price
a. is equal to marginal
cost
b. is above marginal
cost
c. is below marginal
cost
d. may be above, below, or
equal to marginal cost, depending on the location of the marginal
cost curve in relation to the average cost curve
Answer
b. is above marginal cost
The firm produces at MR=MC in the long run but the P=ATC at this point where P=ATC>MR=MC
12. For a monopolistically competitive firm, the long-run equilibrium price a. is equal to marginal...
which of the following is not characteristic of a monopolistically competitive firm in a long-run equilibrium a price is equal to marginal cost b marginal revenue is equal to marginal cost c the firm has excess capacity d price is equal to average revenue
In the long run, a profit-maximizing monopolistically competitive firm sets it price Multiple Choice above marginal cost. below marginal cost. equal to marginal revenue equal to marginal cost.
In comparing the long-run equilibrium of a monopolistically competitive firm and a perfectly competitive firm, which of the following is incorrect? Select one: a. they both produce at the minimum point of the average cost curve ob. the both produce at point where price equals average costs c. they both produce where MR = MC od. the both make zero economic profits e. none of the above. o
A firm in a monopolistically competitive market makes no economic profit in the long run because a. long-run price will be equal to long run average cost. b. long-run price will be equal to long run marginal cost. c. long-run marginal cost will be equal to long run marginal revenue. d. long-run marginal cost will be too high to make any economic profit.
4. Is monopolistic competition efficient? Suppose that a firm produces polo shirts in a monopolistically competitive market. The following graph shows its demand curve, marginal revenue (MR) curve, marginal cost (MC) curve, and average total cost (ATC) curve. Place a black point (plus symbol) on the graph to indicate the long-run monopolistically competitive equilibrium price and quantity for this firm. Next, place a grey point (star symbol) to indicate the minimum average total cost the firm faces and the quantity...
Suppose that a firm produces baseball bats in a monopolistically competitive market. The following graph shows its demand curve, marginal revenue (MR) curve, marginal cost (MC) curve, and average total cost (ATC) curve.Place a block point (plus symbol) on the graph to indicate the long-run monopolistically competitive equilibrium price and quantity for this firm. Next, place a grey point (star symbol) to indicate the minimum average total cost the firm faces and the quantity associated with that cost.Because this market...
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...

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...
