Refer to the following figure. Suppose a firm spends $4,000 per day producing a good. The wage rate per worker is $400 per day and rental rate per unit of capital is $1,000 per day. The firm’s isocost line at the current expenditure level is represented by

If a firm has market power but cannot prevent its customers from reselling the product, then the firm will

In the market for apartment rentals, the demand and supply equations are given by QD = 9,000 – 2P and QS = 3P + 1,000, where P is the price per apartment and Q measures the quantity of apartments. What is the equilibrium quantity?

A firm is producing 8 units of output at an average total cost of $40. When the firm produces 9 units of output, average total cost rises to $54. What is the marginal cost of the 9th unit of output?

Suppose the supply curve for backpacks is Q = 2P – 36. What is the highest price at which no producer is willing to sell backpacks (i.e., the supply choke price)?

A perfectly competitive firm maximizes profit by producing 500 units of output, selling each unit for $5. The firm’s average variable cost is $2, and its average fixed cost is $1. What is the firm’s profit?

In the market for apartment rentals, the demand and supply equations are given by QD = 5,000 – 3P and QS = 5P + 1,000, where P is the price per apartment and Q measures the quantity of apartments. What is the equilibrium quantity?

Refer to the following figure. C1 , C2{“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”C1 , C2″} and C3{“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”C3″} are isocost curves. Which of the following points minimize the cost of producing Q = Q{“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”Q = Q”} ?

Suppose that the inverse demand in a market is P = 100 – 2Q. A firm’s marginal cost is constant and equal to $50. If the marginal cost increased from $50 to $60 and the firm is a monopoly, then it would raise its price _____. If the marginal cost increased from $50 to $60 and the firm operates in a perfectly competitive market, then the market price would _____.

A firm is producing 4 units of output at an average total cost of $10. When the firm produces 5 units of output, average total cost rises to $20. What is the marginal cost of the fifth unit of output?
