(ii). See the labelled diagram on item (B) on the attached

(iii) See the labelled diagram on item (B) on the attached

c. For Bestmilk to continue to produce in the short run, either Price (P) is equal to or less than average variable cost (AVC) that is, (P>=AVC) or price (P) is greater than average total cost (ATC), that is (P>ATC)

d. (i). The initial long run equilibrium will be maintained

(ii). The original profit maximizing output will be maintained.

(iii) The number of firms will reduce in response to the elimination of the super-normal profit that initially attracted to the industry in the short run.

Explanation:

b. (i) A decrease in the consumer income will force price in the industry to drop from P1 to P2 and output will naturally follow the downward trend from Q1 to Q2.

(ii) Both the profit maximizing price and quantity will fall to a new level for Bestmilk.

(iii) A decrease in the consumer income will make Bestmilk to operate at a loss as shown in the shaded area of the attached file.

c. For Bestmilk to continue to produce in the short run, either the price (P) charged for the product should be greater than or equal to the variable cost per unit what this means is that P>= AVC or the price (P) charged for the product is greater than average total cost. i.e. P>ATC

d. (i). The initial long run equilibrium will be maintained

(ii). The original profit maximizing output will be maintained.

(iii) The number of firms will reduce in response to the elimination of the super-normal profit that initially attracted to the industry in the short run.

Caleb construction (cc) incurs supervisor salaries expense in the construction of homes. if cc manufactures 100 homes in a year, fixed supervisor salaries will be $400,000. with the current construction supervisors, cc's productive capacity is 150 homes in a year. however, if cc is contracts to build more than 150 homes per year, it will need to hire additional supervisors, which are hired as full-time rather than temporary employees. cc's productive capacity would then become 200 homes per year, and salaries expense would increase to $470,000. how would cc’s salaries expense be properly classified? fixed variable mixed stepped curvilinear
