Answer:

a. $50.

Explanation:

Since the cost conditions remain the same and the market in question is a perfectly competitive one, when the market returns to a long-run equilibrium, the equilibrium price gravitates towards the previous equilibrium price in which economic profit was zero, which is $50, regardless of some firms leaving the industry or not. Note that this behavior is only observed because this is a perfectly competitive market.

Therefore, the answer is alternative a. $50.

ladessa [460]

Answer:

$40,000

Explanation:

For computing the total variable cost, first we have to determine the variable cost per unit which is shown below:

= (Direct materials cost + Indirect materials - variable + Direct labor cost) ÷ (number of units produced and sold)

= ($18,000 + $2,000 + $10,000) ÷ (3,000 units)

= ($30,000) ÷ (3,000 units)

= $10 per unit

Now the total variable cost would be

= $4,000 units × $10 per unit

= $40,000
