Answer: reduce output.
Explanation:
In a competitive market, firms do not have control over the price that they sell their goods in the market but they do have control over their costs. It is recommended to produce/ sell goods at a quantity where Marginal Revenue will equal Marginal cost (MR = MC).
In a Competitive Market, Price is the same as Marginal revenue which means that Marginal revenue here is $25 and the Marginal Cost is $26. At this quantity of output, the Marginal Cost is larger than the Marginal revenue.
Company should therefore reduce output to a quantity where Marginal Cost will equal Marginal revenue.

Answer:
If Blue ridge decides to purchase the parts instead of manufacturing them, their total costs will increase by $21,300
Explanation:
currently Blue Ridge's costs are:
variable costs = $69,000
fixed costs = $69,000
total $138,000
total cost per unit = $138,000 / 45,000 units = $3.0667 per unit
if Blue Ridge decide to outsource the production of the parts:
variable costs = 45,000 x $4 = $180,000
decrease in fixed costs = $69,000 x -30% = -$20,700
total costs = $159,300
If Blue ridge decides to purchase the parts instead of manufacturing them, their total costs will increase by ⇒ $159,300 - $138,000 = $21,300
Answer:
ELASTIC
DECREASING PRICE
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
The demand for your parking lot spaces is elastic. if the price of parking is reduced, the demand for parking would rise
