The Total Costs are given by T C ( q ) = 400 + 4 q 2. Marginal Costs are given by MC(q)=8q. What is the firm's MIN ATC?
Homework Answers
Answer #1
Average Total cost (ATC) is calcuated by total of Variable cost and Fixed cost divided by the units produced by the industry.
Therefore, minimum ATC is 80.

Q) Perfect Competition
Demand: P=$4
Marginal revenue: MR = $4
Average total cost: ATC = 2/Q + Q
Marginal cost :MC = 2Q
Draw a graph showing MC. MR, demand, and ATC. Illustrate this
firm's revenue, cost, and profit in your graph. Then, Explain why
the demand is perfectly elastic in a perfectly competitive
marker.

In a MS Word document, define total revenue (TR), marginal
revenue (MR), and the profit-maximizing rule for a single
investor-owned firm. Then calculate MR, MC, and ATC for Table 3.1.
Next, give the profit-maximizing level of output (Q).
Now, assume the firm is a tax-exempt agency. One possibility is
that tax-exempt agencies maximize output. Define the
output-maximization rule and then give the output-maximizing level
of output (Q) given Table 3.1. What happens to the...

Suppose that demand for electricity is given by P= 400 -(Q) ,
where Q is the quantity kilowatt hours demanded and
P is the price of electricity. The marginal private cost
of electricity production is: MC(Q) = 100 +1/2Q . Assume that
electricity production exposes an external cost on society of
$30 per kWh. There are no marginal external
benefits from the consumption or production of electricity.
