<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>
(a). Firm in perfect competition produces at minimum efficient scale, MEC where average cost AC is minimum. The price is determined by the market supply and demand.
(b) Note that q1 is at the minimum of AC while Q* is to the left of q1. Similarly, P1 is equal to MC while P* is higher than MC. This shows that firms in perfect competition produce more and charge less than the firms in monopolistically competitive market.
(c) All firms in monopolistically competitive market as well as perfectly competitive market earn zero economic profit in the long run. This is because there is a free entry and exit
(d) Demand is steeper for firms in monopolistically competitive market so that demand is elastic. Demand is horizontal for any quantity which means it is perfectly elastic for a firm in competitive market.

Answer:
Larry protests the assignment and demands that Moe not make the assignment.
Explanation:
An assignment is defined as the transfer of the responsibility of performing a task or contract to another person.
In this instance Moe is trying to assign the contract he has with Larry to Curly.
Curly will now take responsibility for the execution of the contract.
Assignment is allowed if performance of the task is assured, and the other party has no grounds to object if performance will not be affected.
The situation where the assignment will not be prevented is when Larry protests the assignment and demands that Moe not make the assignment.
However the assignment can be prevented if there is an anti-assignment clause, violate public policy, or materially alter Larry's duties and cause an increased burden or risk to Larry.

Explanation:
In a job interview, the interviewer must try to determine if a candidate fits the job profile or not, and he/she really has a very limited amount of time. A very effective way of knowing someone is how that person reacts under pressure when faced with really tough and problematic situations. Being interviewed is already tough, and a really difficult question that doesn't necessarily have a right or wrong answer doesn't make it easier.
Many times the applicant's reaction is more important than the answer itself.
Answer:
prices to fall according to the classical economists and unemployment to increase according to Keynes.
Explanation:
The classical economists believes that a decrease in aggregate demand for goods produced would being about fall in the prices of such goods. What this implies is that as more goods are produced, if such production is not backed by corresponding demand by consumers, the prices of such goods produced will eventually fall because supply is greater than demand.
For the Keynes, their argument is that a decrease in aggregate demand will cause unemployment to increase. This is because owners of businesses or employers would lay off their employees when goods produced exceeds the demand for such production by consumers. Here, owners of businesses pays their employees through sales of goods produced. So, when the goods produced are not purchased, then there will be excess availability of such goods; hence no sale or profit, from which salaries would be paid. The next step is to start laying off employees because employers cannot cover their running costs.
