3. Consider a competitive firm with total costs given by
TC(q) 10010q+ q?
The firm faces a market price p = 50
(a) Write expressions for total revenue TR and marginal revenue MR as functions of
output q
(b) Write expressions for average total cost ATC, average variable cost AVC, and
marginal cost MC as functions of output q
(c) For what value of output is ATC minimized?
1
(d) Find the profit maximizing level of output q. At this level of output, what are
TR, TC, ATC, and *?
(e) Graph the ATC, AVC, MC, and MR curves in a single graph, and indicate the
profit maximizing level of output. If there are profits, shade the region corre-
sponding to profit and label it.
(f) If fixed costs increase from 100 to 500, what happens to the profit maximizing
level of output, TR, TC, and ?
(g) If fixed costs increase from 100 to 500, should the firm continue to operate in the
