Answer:

c. firms are free to enter and exit the market.

Explanation:

A monopolistically competitive market is a market in which there are a lot of organizations that sell products that are similar and it tends to be easy to enter and leave the industry. Because it is easy for a company to enter the market and there is a lot of competition, in the long run the economic profit is zero. According to this, the answer is that in the long run, profits in a monopolistically competitive market are zero because firms are free to enter and exit the market.

The other options are not right because a monopolistically competitive market has zero profits because of its low entry barriers and amount of competitors not because of government regulations or an illegal agreement between organizations to control competition. Also, in a monopolistically competitive market the products are similar.

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

B) $647.47

Explanation:

The initial closing date was set for May 1st, but due to a problem with the buyer, it was moved to May 10th but that date was accepted by the seller. This means that the buyer should be responsible for the property taxes starting May 10th.

Property taxes per day = $1,832 / 365 days = $5.02 per day

Susan is responsible for paying 31 days in January, 28 days in February, 31 days in March, 30 days in April, and 9 days in May = 129 days x $5.02 = $647.47

The buyer is responsible for $1,184.53 in property taxes.
