Answer:

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

The price of Kate's breakfast special is $5.

The average variable cost is $3.95.

The average fixed cost is $1.25.

The average total cost

= $3.95 + $1.25

= $5.20

The price is not covering the average total cost but it is covering the average variable cost. The firm can continue operating in the short run but stop production in the long run.

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

1.  Actual Price

2.  Misperceptions theory.

Explanation:

In the short run, the quantity of output that firms supply can deviate from the natural level of output if the ACTUAL PRICE level in the economy deviates from the expected price level. Several theories explain how this might happen.

For example, the MISPERCEPTIONS THEORY asserts that output prices adjust more quickly to changes in the price level than wages do, in part because of long-term wage contracts. Suppose a firm signs a contract agreeing to pay its workers $15 per hour for the next year, based on an expected price level of 100 Year.

The above explanations is the reason why the aggregate supply curve slopes upward in the short run
