firms profit amounts to$_.ANS:300第27页/共36页SHORT ANSWERWhy is a firms average-total-cost curve U-shaped?How and why does it differ in the short run and in the long run?第28页/共36页SHORT ANSWER(1)The average-total-cost curve is U-shaped because the firm initially is able to spread out fixed costs over additional units,but as quantity increases,it costs more to increase quantity further because an important input is limited.第29页/共36页SHORT ANSWER(2)In the long run,a firm can adjust the factors of production that are fixed in the short run;for example,it can increase the size of its factory.As a result,the long-run average-total-cost curve has a much flatter U-shape than the short-run average-total-cost curve.In addition,the long-run curve lies along the lower envelope of the short-run curves.第30页/共36页GRAPHICALLY ANALYSESSuppose we are analyzing the market for cars.Graphically illustrate the impact each of the following would have on demand or supply.Also show how equilibrium price and quantity have changed.a.A stock-market boom makes people wealthier.b.A strike by steelworkers raises steel prices.第31页/共36页GRAPHICALLY ANALYSESa.Because cars are normal goods,an increase in peoples wealth will shift the demand curve for car to the right,both P and Q will rise.第32页/共36页GRAPHICALLY ANALYSESb.Because steel is an input in the production of cars,higher steel prices will shift the supply curve of cars to the left,P will rise and Q will decrease.第33页/共36页Under what conditions will a competitive firm have profits in the short run?Under what conditions will it have losses in
