What are the four characteristics of a monopolistically competitive industry and what is one example of a monopolistically competitive industry?

How does a monopolistic market during entry and exit affect economic profit and economic loss? Show diagram.

The following graph shows a firm operating in a monopolistically competitive market. Short term, how many haircuts will the firm perform and at what price? At this point, what will its total revenue, total cost, and total profit be? Given your answers, what would we expect to happen in the long term in this market (i.e. are we at long term equilibrium, or will we see further changes)?

Suppose that a firm produces polo shirts 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 unification the minimum average total cost the firm faces and the quantity associated with that cost. Because this market is a monopolistically competitive market, you can tell that it is in long-run equilibrium by the fact that ___ at the optimal quantity for each firm. Furthermore, the quantity the firm produces in long-run equilibrium ___ the efficient scale. True or False: This indicates that there is excess capacity in the market for shirts. Monopolistic competition may also be socially inefficient because there are too many or too few firms in the market. The presence of the ___…

Answer all four questions! Is a monopolistically competitive firm productively efficient? How can you tell? Offer one reason why a monopolistically competitive firm might be productively inefficient. Is it allocatively efficient? How can you tell? Offer one reason why a monopolistically competitive firm might be allocatively inefficient.

how does a firm behaves in monopolistic competition and  explain the outcomes for the firm in the short run and in the long run.

Suppose the tattoo shop market in Richmond is monopolistically competitive. Consider the market from the perspective of one tattoo parlor, Roses & Thorns. Suppose there were positive economic profits in the market and an additional two tattoo parlors enter the market. What happens to the demand curve for Roses & Thorns tattoos shifts up shifts down stays the same

Is the outcome in a monopolistically competitive market desirable from the standpoint of society? Can the government improve on the market outcome?

1. Briefly discuss the various ways monopolistically competitive firms can differentiate their products?   2.  In the long-run, a perfectly competitive firm will earn what kind of economic profit?
