Answer:

c) explains why the average total cost and marginal cost curves are U-shaped in the short run.

Explanation:

According to the law of diminishing returns, when one input variable is increased, the result is seen in the increase in the output. At some point in the production, when an additional factor is added, the output increases but in smaller return. One factor remains fixed in the process of diminishing return. The variable factor is increased at any point of production which do not prove much productive.

when perfectly competitive firm X sells three units of product Z, its marginal revenue is $4.67. when it sells one hundred units
Ghella [55]

Answer:

B) $4.67

Explanation:

By definition marginal revenue is the revenue generated by the sale of one more unit of product Z.

Marginal revenue = unit price

Since firm X participates in a perfectly competitive market, it is a price taker, and since the marginal revenue is constant, we can assume that this is the equilibrium price of product Z.

Sidana [21]

Answer:

(I) Price elasticity = 1/6

(II) the $2.5 price gives the higher revenue: 1,250

Explanation:

(I) price elasticity

E_s =\frac{\frac{Q2 - Q1}{(Q2+Q1)/2}}{\frac{P2 - P1}{(P2+P1)/2}}

↑Q (500 - 300)/((500+ 300) / 2)

↑Q 200 / (800/2) =  200/400 = 1/2

↑P (3.5 - 2.5)/((3.5+2.5)/2)

↑P 1/(6/2) = 1/3

Es = \frac{1/2}{1/3}  = 1/6

(II) total revenue

3.5 x 300 = 1,050

2.5 x 500 = 1,250
