A firms marginal cost curve above the average variable cost curve is equal to the films individual supply curve. This means that every time a firm receives a price from the market it will be willing to supply the amount of output where the price equals marginal cost. What happens to the films individual supply curve if marginal costs increase?
Tips ips The following graph plots daily cost curves for a firm operating in the competitive market for instant pots. 100 PRICE (Dollars per instant pot) 8888 2 2 2 2 10 o ATC AVC MC ㅁㅁ 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 QUANTITY (Thousands of instant pots) Using the following table, for each price level, calculate the optimal quantity of units for the firm to produce. Using the data from the graph to determine the firm's total variable cost, calculate the profit or loss associated with producing that quantity. Assume that if the firm is indifferent between producing and shutting down, it will choose to produce. (Hint: Select purple points [diamond symbols] on the graph to receive exact average variable cost information.)
