Answer:
Firm should not shut down, as it is able to cover its Average Variable Cost
Explanation:
Perfect Competition firms in Short Run : The firms produce even if their average revenue (price) < their average total costs (AC). They continue production until Average variable cost (AVC) ≥ per unit price (P) i.e average revenue (AR). This is called Shut Down Point. P lower beyond AVC implies that firm won't continue even in short run.
Given : Variable Cost (VC) = 500 ; Revenue (R) = 510
Average Variable Costs & Average Revenue are variable costs & revenue, per unit quantity. AVC = VC / Q ; AR (P) = R / Q
R i.e 510 > VC i.e 500
So, R/ Q i.e AR is also > VC / Q i.e AVC
Since AVC > AR (P), firm should not shut down

Answer:
<u>Part a: What will be the equilabrium price that Dumphy and Funke will charge?</u>
Answer: Price charged = $30
<u>Part b: What are the profits for Dumphy and Funke at the equilibrium price?</u>
Answer: Profit on equilibrium price = $0
<u>Part c: What type of competition would Funke and Dumphy likely engage in after the decrease in demand?</u>
Answer: Price competition
Explanation:
<u>Part a: What will be the equilabrium price that Dumphy and Funke will charge?</u>
Answer:
Price charged by each of the artists will be equal to their marginal cost.
Thus, equilibrium P = MC = $30.
<u>Part b: What are the profits for Dumphy and Funke at the equilibrium price?</u>
Answer:
Equilibrium profits will be 0 at the equilibrium because price charged is equal to MC, leading to no profits.
<u>Part c: What type of competition would Funke and Dumphy likely engage in after the decrease in demand?</u>
Answer:
Price competition - as changes in price will lead to changes in demand and thus sales
The answer is C. Replace workers with machine
It's common for a company to replace workers with maschines in order to do hard menial labour such as wrapping packages, cutting products, shaping the products, moving the raw material, etc. which could increase efficiency and lower wage levels at the same time
