Answer:

500

Explanation:

please find attached the table referred to in this question and a second table where marginal cost is included

A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogeneous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply.

in a perfect competition, price = marginal cost = marginal revenue

Marginal cost = total cost 2 - total cost 1

e.g. marginal cost at 2 units of output = $7 - $2 = $5

Hank and Helen would supply at the point  where marginal cost is equal to $5.

looking at the second attached table, there are two points where marginal cost is equal to $5. at output 1 and output 5.

at output one, Hank and Helen would be earning a loss because total cost is greater than total revenue. so they would not supply at this point.

at output five, Hank and Helen would earn a profit and thus would supply at 5 units of output.

Since all firms face and identical cost structure, the industry supply would be 100 x 5 = 500 pounds

Assume a firm faces these costs: total cost of capital $4,000; price paid for labor = $20 per labor unit; and price paid for raw
insens350 [35]

Answer:

A) total cost = (200 labor hours x $20) + (500 units of raw materials x $8) + $4,000 cost of capital = $12,000

average total cost per unit = $12,000 / 2,000 units = $6 per unit

B) new total cost = (100 labor hours x $20) + (500 units of raw materials x $8) + $4,000 cost of capital =  $2,000 + $4,000 + $4,000 = $10,000

average total cost per unit = $10,000 / 3,000 units = $3.33 per unit

C) When process innovation occurs, total productivity and efficiency increase, decreasing the average cost per unit. In this case the total cos decrease, but even if total costs do not decrease, higher efficiency and productivity can be achieved by production more units at the same total costs. Process innovations, usually related to new technologies, are responsible for the greatest increases in productivity and efficiency which result in higher economic output and growth.
