with ideal market efficiency?

Answer:

High price and low output, relative to ideal market efficiency

Explanation:

An unregulated monopolist will most likely charge a higher price in a bid to maximize its profit since the company would be the only producer of its output in the market it operates. In a bid to keep prices high, the monopolist will keep output (supply) lower than market demand leading to a scarcity and an inadvertent increase in the price of its output.

On the other hand, in an ideal market efficiency, prices are likely to be low as multiple producers produce high volume of output causing supply to be higher than demand.

Explain why to maximize profits a firm needs to produce an output at a level where marginal revenue
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Rest of question:

... equals marginal cost.

Firms will maximize profits at the point where marginal revenue equals marginal cost because producing after this point means that no profits will be made.

As long as the Marginal revenue exceeds marginal cost, there will be profits made because the company is making more than it is spending so they should keep producing. When it gets to a point in production where the marginal revenue equals marginal cost, the company should not produce further than that.

This is because, as earlier mentioned, any further production would result in the marginal cost being larger than the marginal revenue which means that a loss will be made. The company should therefore stop at the point where MR = MC so as not to let MC get larger than MR so that no losses will be made.

Suppose the price of tomatoes falls, ceteris paribus. Describe the impact the substitution effect and the real income effect wou
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Ceteris paribus assumption: Demand curves relate the prices and quantities demanded assuming no other factors change

Explanation:

Ceteris paribus is a  Latin phrase meaning “other things being equal”. If all else is not held equal, then the laws of supply and demand will not necessarily hold.

Demand is the amount of some product a consumer is willing and able to purchase at each price.

IMPACT THE SUBSTITUTION EFFECT AND THE REAL INCOME

A substitute is a good or service that can be used in place of another good or service. A lower price for a substitute decreases demand for the other product and increases the quantity demanded for tomatoes

A change in the price of a good or service causes a movement along a specific demand curve, and it typically leads to some change in the quantity demanded, but it does not shift the demand curve.
