Question 14 Questions 14-18 refer to Figure 5-1 below. Suppose a firm operating in a perfectly competitive market has the following cost curves: Figure 5-1 MC ATC P4 P3 P2 2 P1 Price AVC Q102 03 04 Q5 Quantity Refer to Figure 5-1. When price rises from P2 to P3, the firm finds that... marginal cost exceeds marginal revenue at a production level of Q2. if it produces at output level Q3 it will earn a positive profit. O expanding output to Q4 would leave the firm with losses. it could increase profits by lowering output from Q3 to Q2.
