Answer:

The correct answer is the option C: earn positive economic profits.

Explanation:

In microeconomics, all the companies in a perfectly competitive industry at the short-run might <em>earn positive economic profits due to the fact that at short-term many companies might leave</em> the industry in the case that they do not earn normal profits and that <em>causes that the companies that stay will earn positive economic profit</em>. In addition to that, at the long-run more companies will enter the industry and therefore all the firms might earn zero economic profit that is equal to normal economic profit.

Explanation:

a. Probability Refrigerator purchased from store lasts more than 15 years :

Prob(refrigerator purchase from A) and Prob(refrigerator from A life > 15 years) + .........Prob(refrigerator purchase from D) and Prob(refrigerator from D life >15 years)

(0.40x0.1)+(0.25x0.20)+(0.15x0.05)+(0.20x0.25) = 0.04+0.05+0.0075+0.05 = 0.1475  

b. Refrigerator last > 15 years given , Probability it is from B :

[ Prob (B Purchase) . Prob (life > 15, given from B) ] / Prob (Life > 15)

P (B/15) = [P(B).P(15/B)]  / [P15]          {Bayes Theorum}

= [(0.25)(0.20)] / 0.1475  = 0.05 / 0.1475

= 0.3389
