Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

C. If the firm were to charge more than the going price, it would sell none of its goods.

Explanation:

If a company is considered as a price taker in the competitive market, it does not have the power to influence the present market price by the quantity of the products it produces.

Thus if a price taking firm can charge more for a product than the going market price, then it would not sell its products.

Hence the correct option is (C).
