Table 14-6 Suppose that a firm in a competitive market faces the following revenues and costs: Quantity (Units) Total Revenue (Dollars) Total Cost (Dollars) 0 0 3 1 6 5 2 12 8 3 18 12 4 24 17 5 30 23 6 36 30 7 42 38 Refer to Table 14-6. The firm will produce a quantity greater than three because at 3 units of output, marginal cost a. equals marginal revenue. b. is greater than marginal revenue. c. is minimized. d. is less than marginal revenue.

The profit-maximizing firm depicted in the graph above should exit if conditions do not improve in the long run produce the output that minimizes average total cost increase price to maximize profits increase output to maximize profits use less capital and more labor to reduce cost
