The following diagram shows the market demand for titanium. Use the orange points (square symbol) to plot the initial short-run industry supply curve when there are 10 firms in the market. (Hint: You can disregard the portion of the supply curve that corresponds to prices where there is no output since this is the industry supply curve.) Next, use the purple points (diamond symbol) to plot the short-run industry supply curve when there are 15 firms. Finally, use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot the short-run industry supply curve when there are 20 firms. PRICE (Dollars per pound) 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 Demand 0 0 125 250 375 500 625 750 875 1000 1125 1250 QUANTITY (Thousands of pounds) Supply (10 firms) Supply (15 firms) 4 Supply (20 firms)

Assume that, regardless of how many firms are in the industry, ever n in the industry is identical and faces the marginal cost (MC), average total cost (ATC), and average variable cost (AVC) curves shown on the following graph.

If there were 10 firms in this market, the short-run equilibrium price of steel would be $______per ton. At that price, firms in this industry would ______(shut down/operate at a loss/ earn a positive profit/ earn zero profit).  Therefore, in the long run, firms would__________(enter/ exit/ neither enter nor exit) the steel market. Because you know that competitive firms earn______(zero/ negative/ positive) economic profit in the long run, you know the long-run equilibrium price must be $_____per ton. From the graph, you can see that this means there will be_____(10/20/30) firms operating in the steel industry in long-run equilibrium.
