A firm produces a product in a competitive industry and has a total cost function (TC) of TC(a) 60+4q+2q2 and a marginal cost function (MC) of MC(q) = 4 + 4q. At the given market price (P) of $20, the firm is producing 4.00 units of output. Is the firm maximizing profit?V What quantity of output should the firm produce in the long run? The firm should produce unit(s) of output. (Enter your response as an integer.)

A perfectly competitive firm faces total cost of product as follows: TC = 0.1q2 + 10 + 50. a. If market price is $20/unit, find the output rate at which firm's profit is maximized. b. Find the firm's shut-down point. c. Find the firm's short-run supply function (express output q as a function of market price P). d. If there are 100 identical firms (have the same cost of production) in the market, determine market supply function.
