Answer:
a. Profit; $520
b. Firms will enter; Left
c. Zero profits or normal profits
Explanation:
A restaurant is operating in a monopolistic competitive market.
The restaurant is producing 260 meals per day.
This is the profit maximizing level of output where the marginal cost is equal to marginal revenue.
The average total cost at this point is $10.
The price level is $12.
The profit or loss to the restaurant will be equal to the difference between total revenue and total cost.
a. Profit
= Total Revenue - Total cost
= $12
260 - $10 260
= $3,120 - $2,600
= $520
b. This supernormal profit will attract other firms to enter the market, as a result the market share of existing firms will decline. The demand curve of the restaurant will move to the left.
c. In the long run, the firms in a perfectly competitive market earn only zero economic profits as positive profits attract new firms and negative profits cause the firms to leave.
So the restaurant will have zero or normal profits in the long run.

Effective gross income = Total Potential income-Expenses- management fees
Total potential income = gross rental income + vending receipts- gross rental income vacancy
gross rental = $145000
vending receipts = $5000
rental vacancy = $7250
total potential income = $142,750
Expenses = taxes+insurance +maintenance + utilities + repairs +legal fees
Expenses = $40,000
management fee = (total potential income- expenses) x.04
management fee = $4110
gross effective income = $142750-$40000-$4110
= $98640
