Answer:

The explanation is below

Explanation:

A.  Shutdown point is achieved when price equal AVC. when price lowers than the AVC, firm shutdown.

VC = q^2

AVC = q

So,

P = q is the shutdown point.

B.  For profit maximizing level of output,

P = MR = MC

500 = 20 + 2q

q = 240 units

So, profit maximization level of output = 240 units

C.  Firm level supply curve = MC curve above the shutdown point

Number of firms = 5

So,

Industry supply curve = 10*MC = 200+20Q

Industry supply curve = 200+20Q

It shows that MC curve above the shutdown point is supply curve.

Indicate whether the following statements are positive or normative. a. Raising interest rates encourages people to save: b. The
denpristay [2]

a. Raising interest rates encourages people to save: positive statement

b. The government ought to be more concerned with reducing unemployment: normative statement

c. The government should raise the tax on tobacco to discourage people from smoking: normative statement

d. The government should limit immigration: normative statement

e. Increasing gasoline taxes results in less disposable income: normative statement

f. The government should raise gasoline taxes and fix bridges: normative statement

<h3>What are normative and positive statements?</h3>

Normative statements come from a viewpoint or an opinion. As a result, the terms "should," "ought," or "it is preferable to" are commonly used. Normative statements can never be proven to be true.

Conversely, positive statements can often be put to the test in theory, if not always in practice. Positive statements are not value judgments. They are predictions of what it is, was, or will become.

Thus, option A is a positive statement and rest are normative statements.
