Please answer the following three s, assuming that the firm is proftit maxilmizing and does not shutdown in the short run. 1. What is the firm's total revenue? Price, Cost MC ATC $300 AVC 2. What is the firm's total cost? Number $150 3. What is the firm's profit? (Enter a negative number for a loss.) 205 260 336 365

Explanation / Answer

Answer 1 - According to the given information and graph we have calculated firm's total revenue. We know that total revenue is equal to price time quantity. In the graph P = MC at output level 260 units. The price is $200. Thus total revenue TR = 260*200

TR = $52,000

Answer 2 - Total cost of the firm is ,

TC = ATC * Q

TC = 320 * 260

TC = $83,200

Answer 3 - Profit = total revenue - total cost

Profit = 52,000 - 83200

Profit = - $31,200

This firm is suffering from loss ( $31200)
