30. Average total cost a. b. c. d. e. increases as output increases. decreases as output increases. increases if marginal cost is increasing increases if marginal cost is greater than average total cost. both c and d 31. Amonopolist which suffers losses in the short run will continue to operate as long as total revenue covers fixed cost. raise price in order to eliminate losses exit in the long run if there is no plant size that will result in economic profit that is greater than or equal to zero. both a and b both a and c a. b. d. 32.
