In competitive market equilibrium, the allocation of the social surplus is such that no individual can be made better off without making someone else worse off.
The phrase "competition equilibrium" refers to an equilibrium condition when the firm's goal of maximising profits and the customers' goal of maximising utility both aspire to reach an equilibrium price as a result of freely determined prices.
According to the theory of competitive equilibrium, the firm's supply of the product is equal to the market's demand for that same amount of the product. It is a circumstance in which neither the buyer nor the seller can strengthen their bargaining position with regard to the goods being sold.

Answer: $225
Explanation:
Deadweight loss is caused by inefficient allocation of the resources or when both the supply and the demand for a product aren't in equilibrium.
The deadweight loss will be calculated as:
= 1/2 base × height
= 1/2 × 15 × 30
= $225
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
- a. <em>Break-even quantity:</em> <u>28,000 pens</u>
- b<em>. Price</em>: <u>$1.51 per pen</u>
Explanation:
1. Break-even quantity
<u>a) Revenue, R(x)</u>
The  monthly revenue is the product of the price by the number of units sold in the month. 
Naming x the number of pens sold in the month:
<u>b) Cost, C(x)</u>
<u />
The monthly cost is the sum of the fixed cost per month plus the variable costs:
- C(x) = $21,000 + 0.25 × x = 21,000 + 0.25x
<u>c) Break-even</u>
Break-even is the point when the revenue and the total costs are equal, this is, when the profit is zero. Write the equation and solve:
Hence, the break-even quantity is 28,000 pens.
2. Price pens must be sold to obtain a monthly profit of $18,000
Profit = Revenue - Total cost
- P(x) = x.p - [ 0.25x + 21,000]
Where p is the price.
- P(x) = x.p - 0.25x - 21,000
Substitute the quantity demanded, x, with 31,000, and the profit, P(x) with 18,000:
- 18,000 = 31,000p - 0.25(31,000) - 21,000
Solve for p and compute:
- 31,000p = 18,000 + 7,750 + 21,000
That is $1.51 per pen.
