I believe the correct answer would be option A. The government regulate natural monopolies by ensuring and overseeing one supplier. A natural monopoly would happen when a largest manufacturer of a certain industry would have a very big gap as compared to other competitors. These industries are being regulated so as to minimize monopolization and to maintain the competitive equality between industries. Monopolies are mainly being governed by antitrust laws on a national level and on an international level.

Answer:
a. increase price in the short run but not in the long run.
Explanation:
A perfectly competitive market is one in which firms in an economy produce similar goods, and use resources that are limited in quantity.
An increase in demand will result in a corresponding increase in price, and results in firms making high profits. In the diagram below it results in a shift of demand from D1 to D2.
In the long run as firms have low barrier to entry more firms enter the market and supply shifts from S1 to S2. There is reduction in prices and profits start to fall. This is illustrated in the second diagram.
Answer:
$22
Explanation:
The computation of the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate per hour is shown below:
= Total Factory overhead ÷ Estimated labor hours
where,
Total factory overhead is
= Salary of factory supervisor + Heating and lighting costs for factory + Depreciation on factory equipment
= $37,000 + $22,300 + $5,600
= $64,900
And, the machine hours is 2.900
So, the predetermined overhead rate is
= $64,900 ÷ 2,900
= $22
