Answer:

The correct answer is equal to price.

Explanation:

A perfectly competitive firm is a price taker. This is because of the large number of firms, no single firm is able to influence the price. So each firm faces a horizontal demand curve. This horizontal line shows demand, marginal revenue, and average revenue.

The price level is determined at the point where the marginal cost is equal to price. The marginal revenue is always equal to price because the price is fixed at a point, each output level is supplied at the same price.

Leviafan [203]

The decision to expand depends on the marginal cost of serving more clients and the marginal revenue he will earn from serving more clients.

<h3>What is marginal cost and marginal revenue?</h3>

Marginal revenue is the change in total revenue when output is increased by one unit. Marginal cost is the change in total cost when consumption is increased by one unit.

Economic theory suggests that output should be increased if the marginal revenue exceeds the marginal cost. If marginal cost is greater than marginal revenue, the business should not be expanded. Profit is maximised when marginal revenue is equal to marginal cost.

What causes unemployment post-keynesianism?

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

involuntary employment

Explanation:

The Post-Keynesianism view is that effective demand is the main determinant of economic performance.

Thus, Keynesianism states that in an economy where there is a significant reduction in demand, it will affect the labor market which further leads to lower wages.

For example, an airline that has 100 workers is experiencing a sharp decline in demand (of flight bookings) because of a government lockdown may decide to cut down their staff capacity ad a result. leading to involuntary employment.
