Answer:
C. Prices in the country Increase
Explanation:
Inflation describes the general increase in prices in a country over time. Prices tend to rise with the increase in economic growth. A high economic growth rate implies that prices will increase at a high rate.
The Inflation rate is measured by assessing changes in the prices of products and services representing people's consumption. A rise in the inflation rate indicates a general increase in prices.
The ratio of the percentage
change in the quantity demanded of a good to a percentage change in its price
refers to the price elasticity of demand.
<span>To add, price elasticity of demand (PED or Ed) is a measure used
in economics to show the responsiveness, or elasticity, of the quantity
demanded of a good or service to a change in its price, ceteris paribus.</span>
The firm will exit or leave the industry as its not making any profits.
<h3><u>CALCULATION OF THE PROFITS</u></h3>
According to the Question,
The firm produces at P = MC
Where we know,
Q = 55 units
P = $4.78
ATC or Average Total Cost = 6.76
AVC or Average Valuable Cost = 3
P > AVC so the firm produces to minimize losses at the MC = P.
Profit = ( P - ATC ) × Q
=( 4.78 - 6.76 ) × 55
= - 108.9
The profit is - 108.9 dollars per minute.
As the firm in the industry is making losses ( a negative profit ) so it will exit the industry in the long run.
