Suppose that a firm produces wooden train engines in a monopolistically competitive market. The following graph shows its demand curve, marginal revenue (MR) curve, marginal cost (MC) curve, and average total cost (ATC) curve. Place a black point (plus symbol) on the graph to indicate the long-run monopolistically competitive equilibrium price and quantity for this firm. Next, place a grey point (star symbol) to indicate the minimum average total cost the firm faces and the quantity associated with that cost. ?

Price $1.40 $1.00 $0.95 $0.85 $0.60 MR MC ATC D 0 300 500 900 1000 Quantity The monopolistically competitive firm represented in the graph above is in: long-run equilibrium because economic profits are zero at the profit-maximizing output level. short-run equilibrium because price exceeds average total cost at the profit-maximizing output level. both short-run and long-run equilibrium because price exceeds average total cost at the profit-maximizing output level. O both short-run and long-run equilibrium because price equals marginal cost at the profit-maximizing output level.
