A firm participating in a competitive market with these costs would break even if the price is Average Averag Price Fixed Cost Variable Cost $4 $3 $6 $1 $8 $0.50

Explanation / Answer

(12) (e)

Profit = Total revenue - Total cost

Profit is maximum when quantity = 3 (Profit = $15 - $13 = $2).

(13) Break-even price = $6

In breakeven, Revenue = Total cost

Revenue = Total fixed cost + Total variable cost

P x Q = (AFC x Q) + (AVC x Q)

Dividing each side by Q, we get

P = AFC + AVC

This is satisfied when price = $6 (AFC = $1 and AVC = $5).
