Q3. Which of the following is most accurate for a price-taker firm in long-run equilibrium when there are no barriers to entry? A) P = AVC = MR. B) P = MC = ATC = MR. C) TC = TR = MC.
Q4. Under perfect competition, a firm will experience zero long term economic profit when: A) MC = ATC = MR = price. B) MC is less than ATC. C) price is less than average total cost.
Q5. A firm operating as a price taker will:
