Suppose a firm has a total cost function, T C = 3/8(Q^2) − 50, and therefore marginal costs of MC = 3/4Q. Assume the market for this firm’s goods is perfectly competitive with a market price, P = 24. (a) Given the information above, is the firm in the short-run or long-run? (1 point) (b) Write down the firm’s marginal revenue equation. (1 points) (c) How many units should the firm produce if it wants to maximize profit? (3 points)...
