Answer:
Explanation:
Suppose there is one perfect competitive market for wheat There are 90 firms in that industry.
Consider the Table 1 given below:
Table 1: Industry supply
MC individual Quantity (9) Industry quantity (Q)
25 30 30*90=2,700
40 35 35*90=3,150
55 40 40*90=3,600
70 45 45*90=4,050
Take possible MC (Marginal cost) with their respective individual. Calculate the industry supply by multiplying 90 with the firm's individual quantities as shown in Table 1 above.
Going by the graphical diagram in the attached image below, we can derive that:
The orange line represents the industry supply. The lower and higher orange represents the lowest and highest quantity respectively.
The intersection industry demand and industry supply gives the short run price and quantity
Therefor, the short run price and quantity are $40 and $3,150 respectively. This and can be shown with dotted black line.
So Therefore
At the current short run market price, the firms will produce in short run because this price is above the average variable cost
In the long, some firms will exit the market, given the current market price.
