Part 2 of 2 – Profit Maximization
for a Firm in Monopolistic Competition
(Exhibit: Profit Maximization for
a Firm in Monopolistic Competition) Suppose that an innovation reduces a
firm’s fixed costs and reduces cost from ATC to ATC’ Suppose further that
after the innovation reduced the cost to ATC?, it costs a total of $18 per
unit to produce 170 units per day. If the firm charges a price equal to
marginal cost, total net profit will be:
A.$1,700.
B.$1,190.
C.$3,060.
D.$3,400.
