without economies of scale
This statement implies a firm must maintain proficiency in order to subsist in a perfectly competitive market. In perfectly competitive marketplace all prices are established by through supply/demand. Some firms may be a little on the lucky side while others may just be good. I will take luck any day however, at some point luck runs out and you better have learned something from your luck and apply it to being good. A firm in a competitive market must be efficient and find methods of production which yield the correct number of outputs and maintain fixed and variable cost of production at marginal levels.
It is a positive statement.

equality is more important than efficiency. Is that a positive or normative statement?
A normative statement in economics is like a normative statement in any other academic subject--it is a statement about something with an implicit value judgment or moral claim. It is distinct from a descriptive statement that is supposed to be value/ideologically neutral. For example, a descriptive statement in economics could be something like, 'Social Security is set to go bankrupt by 2050.' Whereas a normative statement would be something like, 'Social Security is set to go bankrupt by 2050 and thus must be saved to prevent a huge boom in elderly poverty.'
