The minimum feasible​ long-run average cost for firms in a perfectly competitive industry is ​$48 per unit. If every firm in the

industry currently is producing an output consistent with a​ long-run equilibrium, calculate the marginal cost incurred by each firm and the market price. Marginal cost is ​$ nothing and market price is ​$ nothing. ​(Enter your responses as whole​ numbers.)

Answer:

Marginal cost is ​<u>$48</u> and market price is ​<u>$48</u>.

Explanation:

in a perfectly competitive industry, price = average cost. At the same time, average cost = marginal cost. So marginal cost = price.

In a perfectly competitive industry, all producers are making 0 economic profit (which is not the same as 0 accounting profit). Since you are making 0 economic profit, that means that your marginal costs will equal the selling price. This is also the point where the firms are maximizing their accounting profits.

Calculate the following: The future value of lump-sum investment of $3,200 in four years that earns 6 percent. Round your answer
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

(a) $4,040

(b) $3,434

(c) $348

(d) $3,265

Explanation:

(a) Calculate the following: The future value of lump-sum investment of $3,200 in four years that earns 6 percent. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. (Hint: Use Appendix A.1 or the Garman/Forgue companion website.) Round Future value of a Single Amount in intermediate calculations to four decimal places. $

To estimate this, the formula for calculating future value is used as follows:

FV = PV * (1 + r)^n ………………………….. (1)

Where,

FV = future value = ?

PV = lump-sum investment = $3,200

r = interest rate = 6%, or 0.06

n = number of years = 4

Substitute the values into equation (1) to have:

FV = $3,200 * (1 + 0.06)^4

FV = $3,200 * (1.06)^4

FV = $3,200 * 1.2625

FV = $4,040

(b) The future value of $1,100 saved each year for three years that earns 4 percent. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. (Hint: Use Appendix A.3 or the Garman/Forgue companion website.) Round Future value of Series of Equal Amounts in intermediate calculations to four decimal places. $

To calculate this, the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity is used as follows:

FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (2)

Where,

FV = Future value of the amount after 3 years =?

M = Annual savings = $1,100

r = interest rate = 4%, or 0.04

n = number of years = 3

Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:

FV = $1,100 * (((1 + 0.04)^3 - 1) / 0.04)

FV = $1,100 * 3.1216

FV = $3,434

(c) A person who invests $1,800 each year finds one choice that is expected to pay 4 percent per year and another choice that may pay 7 percent. What is the difference in return if the investment is made for four years? Round your answer to the nearest dollar. (Hint: Use Appendix A.3 or the Garman/Forgue companion website.) Round Future value of Series of Equal Amounts in intermediate calculations to four decimal places. $

To do this, we first calculate the return of each of the 2  investments by using the the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity in part b above is used as follows:

<u>Calculation of return at 4 percent</u>

Where;

FV at 4% = Future value of the return after 4 years =?

M = Annual savings = $1,800

r = interest rate = 4%, or 0.04

n = number of years = 4

Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:

FV at 4% = $1,800 * (((1 + 0.04)^4 - 1) / 0.04)

FV  at 4% = $1,800 * 4.2465

FV  at 4% = $7,644

<u>Calculation of return at 7 percent</u>

Where;

FV at 7% = Future value of the return after 4 years =?

M = Annual savings = $1,800

r = interest rate = 7%, or 0.07

n = number of years = 4

Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:

FV at 7%= $1,800 * (((1 + 0.07)^4 - 1) / 0.07)

FV at 7% = $1,800 * 4.4399

FV at 7% = $7,992

<u>Calculation of the difference in return</u>

This is calculated as follows:

Difference = FV at 7% - FV at 4% = $7,992 - $7,644 = $348

(d) The amount a person would need to deposit today with a 7 percent interest rate to have $4,000 in three years. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. (Hint: Use Appendix A.2 or the Garman/Forgue companion website.) Round Present value of a Single Amount in intermediate calculations to four decimal places. $

To estimate this, the formula for calculating present value is used as follows:

PV = FV / (1 + r)^n ………………………….. (1)

Where;

PV = Present value or amount to deposit today = ?

FV = future value in three years = $4,000

r = interest rate = 7%, or 0.07

n = number of years = 3

Substitute the values into equation (1) to have:

PV = $4,000 / (1 + 0.07)^3

PV = $4,000 / 1.2250

PV = $3,265
