22. Suppose the firm in the figure below sets a uniform price for its product. Please show the steps. a. If the firm chooses to set a uniform price for its product, then the profit-maximizing price is $________ and ________ units will be sold.

6. Deriving the short-run supply curve Consider the competitive market for dress shirts. The following graph shows the marginal cost (MC), average total cost (ATC), and average variable cost (AVC) curves for a typical firm in the industry. COSTS (Dollars) PRICE (Dollars per shirt) 100 90 80 70 60 50 100 40 90 10 80 0 70 Price (Dollars per shirt) 60 50 20 10 0 0 For each price in the following table, use the graph to determine the number of shirts this firm would produce in order to maximize its profit. Assume that when the price is exactly equal to the average variable cost, the firm is indifferent between producing zero shirts and the profit- maximizing quantity. Also, indicate whether the firm will produce, shut down, or be indifferent between the two in the short run. Lastly, determine whether it will make a profit, suffer a loss, or break even at each price. 15 20 25 55 70 85 10 0 0 0 MC D ATC On the following graph, use the orange points (square symbol) to plot points along the…
4. Study Questions and Problems #4 The market equilibrium price for wheat is $4 per bushel. On the following graph, use the green line (triangle symbol) to plot the marginal revenue curve for a typical wheat farmer. Use the orange line (square symbol) to plot the total revenue curve for this farmer. TOTAL REVENUE & MARGINAL REVENUE (Dollars per bushel) 10 9 9 1 2 3 4 6 6 7 8 9 10 QUANTITY (Bushels) Marginal Revenue Total Revenue ? True or False: Marginal revenue is the change in total revenue per bushel. In this case, $4 is the marginal revenue that remains constant and equal to price. True False
5) Calculate the arc price elasticity of demand for wheat in the two situations below: Farmer Brown's Wheat Old price; $3.40/bu Old quantity; 28,000 bu The Wheat Market Old price; $3.40/bu Old quantity; 2.5 billion bu New price; $3.20/bu New price; $3.20/bu New quantity; 2.525 billion bu New quantity; 35,000 bu Can you account for the difference in elasticities?
8. Short-run and long run effects of a shift in demand Suppose that the tuna industry is in long-run equilibrium at a price of $5 per can of tuna and a quantity of 350 million cans per year. Suppose that WebMD daims that a protein found in tuna will increase your expected lifespan by 2 years. WebMD's claim will cause consumers to demand more PRICE (Dollars per cani producing more tuna and earning positive profit Shift the demand curve, the supply curve, or both on the following graph to illustrate these short-run effects of WebMD's claim. ? 0 tuna at every price.
