Answer: B) the firm will shut down in the short run, but stay in the industry in the long run if it expects the product price to rise high enough soon.
Explanation:
If a purely competitive firm is currently facing a situation where the price of its product is lower than the average variable cost, but it believes that the market demand for its product will increase soon, then the firm will shut down in the short run, but stay in the industry in the long run if it expects the product price to rise high enough soon.
Answer:
Many
Homogenous
There are no barriers
Have perfect knowledge
Explanation:
A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods. Because there are many sellers of homogenous goods, firms are price takers.
Because there are no barriers to entry, in the long run, firms earn zero economic profit.
Because buyers and sellers have perfect knowledge of prices, price arbitrage isn't possible.

Answer:
The standard cost is $5 per lbs
each units uses 2 lbs, so the unit stadard cost is $10
Explanation:
Volume variance
std quantity 2800.00 (1,400 units times 2 pounds per unit)
actual quantity 3000.00
std cost ??
difference -200.00
efficiency variance $(1,000.00)
-200 x Std cost = -1,000
Standard cost = -1,000/-200 = 5
The standard cost is $5 per lbs
each units uses 2 lbs, so the unit stadard cost is $10
Answer:
(a) Assumption
(b) Cause and Effect
(c) Cause and effect
(d) Assumption
Explanation:
(a) People behave rationally: Assumption
Rational behavior refers to a decision-making process that is based on making assumptions that result in an optimal level of benefit or utility.
(b) Cause and Effect
If a price of goods falls that is a cause and the effect is that people will consume more of the good.

Money supply is the total amount of money in circulation which includes coins, cash and balance in savings account in a country at a period of time.
- Given a fixed supply of money and a downward sloping aggregate demand curve, an increase in money demand will <u>not change</u> the price paid for its use, otherwise known as the <u>discount rate.</u>
- A change the money supply in a country causes a change in aggregate demand.
- An increase in the money supply causes increase in aggregate demand and a decrease in the money supply causes decrease in aggregate demand.
Therefore, an increase in money demand will not change the price paid for its use, otherwise known as the discount rate.
