Cost curves, profits/losses, and long-run equilibrium: a. Draw typical short run average cost and marginal cost curves for a firm (costs on the vertical axis, q on the horizontal axis), such that marginal cost = average cost= 6 at q=10. b. Suppose this firm operates as a perfect competitor in a market with a short run equilibrium price of $5. Illustrate on your graph the area indicating the short run profit or loss experienced by this firm, given the cost...

The graph below shows the marginal cost (MC), average variable cost (AVC), and average total cost (ATC) curves for a firm in a competitive market. These curves imply a short-run supply curve that has two distinct parts. One part, not shown, lies along the vertical axis (quantity = 0); this represents a condition of production shutdown. Where is the other part? Use the straight-line tool to draw it.
