Explanation:
A perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.
In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit. If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.
Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.
Answer:
Instructions are listed below
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
For the purchase option:
Buying price= $22 per unit.
For the make option:
Weekly rental payment of $30,800
The firm also has to hire five operators to help make product A. Each operator works eight hours per day, five days per week at the rate of $14 per hour.
The material cost for the make option is $15 per unit of product A.
A) We need to find the number of units that makes the unitary fixed costs= $7
Weekly rental= 30800
Direct labor= ($14*8 hours*5workes)*5 days= 2800
Total fixed costs= $33,600
Unitary fixed costs= total fixed costs/ Q
7=33600/Q
Q= 4800 units
B) Now Q= 6600
Buy= 6600*22= $145,200
Make= 6600*15 + 33600= $132,600
