The graph shows the demand curve for cars in 2017. Suppose that the least-possible cost of producing a car is $10,000 and that the efficient scale is 10,000 cars a month. Draw the average total cost curve for a car manufacturer in 2017. Label it. The graph shows that the market for cars is a natural oligopoly with O A. 1 firm B. 2 firms C. 3 firms O D. 4 firms

Suppose the market for soft drinks is a duopoly and the two firms in the market are Coca Cola and Pepsi. Assume Coca Cola and Pepsi make exactly the same soft drinks but with different names: Coke and Pepsi. Assume a constant marginal cost of $200 and no fixed costs. If Coca Cola and Pepsi collude, how many Pepsis would Pepsi produce? 75 O 100 25 150

Suppose the market for fast-food value meals is monopolistically competitive, with many restaurants selling their own brand of food. Assume the restaurants in the industry behave optimally by maximizing profit. The figure to the right represents the market for one monopolistically competitive firm's value meals. How will this figure change as the market moves toward long-run equilibrium? In the long run, O A. the average cost curve and the marginal cost curve will shift up because the firms are currently making profit. O B. the demand curve will shift to the left and become more elastic because the firms are currently making profit. nothing will change because monopolistically competitive markets have barriers to new firms entering. OC. O D. the demand curve will shift to the right and become more elastic because the firms are currently experiencing losses. O E. nothing will change because the firms in this market are breaking even. Price and cost (per value meal) 8.00- 7.60- 7.20 6.80…
