Refer to Exhibit 25-7. A monopolistic competitive firm earns a total profit of __________ when it produces and sells 20 units of its good. Group of answer choices $40. $10. $200. $80. $50.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is B) $ 10 Dollars.

Explanation:

Monopolistic competition refers to an industry in which many businesses offer similar products or services but not perfect substitutes.

Barriers to entry and exit in a monopolistic competitive industry are low, and the decisions of any one firm do not directly affect those of its competitors.

Step 1

The total profit function is given as:

Profit = Total revenue – Total expenses (or Total Cost)

Total Revenue (TR) = Price X Quantity

Step 2

Using the attached Exhibit,

We compute TR as

$9 x 20 (Units)

This gives us $180.

Step 3

If Total Revenue is equal to $180 then

Total Profit (TP) = $180 - $170

(Total Cost is given in the exhibit)

TP therefore is equals to $10.

Cheers!
