What problems do you think you will encounter if you estimatedthe demand equation by OLS?.ll touch LTE 10:05 PM O 9 37% O A docs.google.com In a perfectly competitive market, what happens to a firm's profit-maximizing level of output if the price of the product falls? * Because the firm maximizes profit by setting marginal revenue equal to O marginal cost, an increase in the price of the product will reduce the firm's profit-maximizing level of output. Because the firm maximizes profit by setting marginal revenue equal to marginal cost, a decline in the price of the product will not affect the firm's profit-maximizing level of output. Because the firm maximizes profit by setting marginal revenue equal to marginal cost, a decline in the price of the product will reduce the firm's profit-maximizing level of output. Because the firm maximizes profit by setting marginal revenue equal to marginal cost, a decline in the price of the product will increase the firm's profit-maximizing level of output.

- Sean's Fire Engines is the sole seller of fire engines in the fictional country of Pyrotania. Initially, Sean produced five fire engines, but he has decided to increase production to six fire engines. The following graph shows the demand curve Sean faces. As you can see, to sell the additional engine, Sean must lower his price from $160,000 to $120,000 per fire engine. Note that while Sean gains revenue from the additional engine he sells, he also loses revenue from the initial five engines because he sells them all at the lower price. Use the purple rectangle (diamond symbols) to shade the area representing the revenue lost from the initial five engines by selling at $120,000 rather than $160,000. Then use the green rectangle (triangle symbols) to shade the area representing the revenue gained from selling an additional engine at $120,000.

- Return to Figure 9.2. Suppose P0 is 10 and P1 is 11. Suppose a new firm with the same LRAC curve as the incumbent tries to bleak into the market by selling 4,000 units of output. Estimate from the graph what the new firms average cost of producing output would be. If the incumbent continues. to produce 6,000 units, how much output would the two films supply to the market? Estimate what would happen to the market price as a result of the supply of both the incumbent firm and the new entrant. Approximately how much profit would each firm earn? Figure 9.2 Economics of Scale and Natural MonoployWould you rather have efficiency or variety? That is, one opportunity cost of the variety of products we have is that each product costs more per unit than if there were only one kind of product of a given type, like shoes. Perhaps a better question is, What is the right amount of variety? Can there be too many varieties of shoes, for example?Suppose that each firm in a competitive industry has the following costs: Total cost: TC = 50 + q2 Marginal cost: MC = q where q is an individual firms quantity produced. The market demand curve for this product is Demand:QD = 120 P where P is the price and Q is the total quantity of the good. Currently, there are 9 firms in the market. a. What is each firms fixed cost? What is its variable cost? Give the equation for average total cost. b. Graph average-total-cost curve and the marginal-cost curve for q from 5 to 15.
