What kind of a profit is earned by perfect competition in the long run?
In the long period, economic profit cannot be sustained. The arrival of new firms or expansion of existing firms (if returns to scale are constant) in the market causes the (horizontal) demand curve of each individual firm to shift downward, bringing down at the same time the price, the average revenue and marginal revenue curve. The final outcome is that, in the long run, the firm will make only normal profit (zero economic profit).

Among the multiplicity of objectives that a modern firm has profit maximization continues to be the most important Comment?
The success or failure of a firm is measured in terms of the amount of profit it is able to earn in a competitive market. Under profit management, one has to study various theories of profit, emergence of profit, functions of profit and its measurement, etc.Thoeries underlying the Objective of a Firm, mainly talk about the subject of Ethics in Business. Debate is going on since a long time, as to whether every Firm's Objective needs to be ETHICAL? the answer may seem as simple as "YES", but the counter arguements that follow are difficult to answer.Coming to Profit Maximization, the question goes as to whether Profit Maximization Goal is justitfied? In a private enterprise, no one can have control over Profit maximization. If the profits are made with the use of Society's resources, such profits need to be sowed back for Societal Development.The profit-maximization rule applies both to firms that are able to sell their product at a constant price and to firms that find they must reduce the price of their product to increase sales. In the real world, firms have to engage in trial-and-error discovery processes, searching for the profit-maximization point. But the process can be succinctly described by the marginal revenue-marginal cost rule.Profit is what is left over from a business after the bills are paid. without profit the company can not afford to re-invest in capital or have money to pay stockholders. I think Customer satisfaction if the basic motive and objective of firm. When we will more and more consider to satisfy customer needs and wants, automatically our secondary objective "profit maximization" will be achieved.

What is profit maximazation?
Profit Maximization is an interesting and rather deep issue in Economics. Please understand that this question can be answered from various approach and interpretation. There are other disciplines like Business and Management which offers a slightly different answer.For example, if you are a Finance student, you might use the term to maximize shareholder value. ( which can be different from this goal ). From my understanding, profit maximization alone cannot be an appropriate goal for a firm. When I teach my students, I often ask them, if each of you start a company today, will the reason to do so, just to maximize profit ?. Although many firms do aim to maximize profit in their existence, not all do so. When we say maximize profit, this means to get the most profit in the firm's existence. And there are other firms that don't. Other goals of the firm can be expansion or growth, where they focus on establishing more branches or growing larger, while other firms focus on sales maximization, where they focus on selling more. There are also other firms that put the environment or social issues as their goal. ( although this can be argued if it's a marketing ploy ). Apart from these different goals of firms, we need to understand that different firms have different goals. A small grocery shop will have a different goal than a multinational company. And a different environment can also affect the goals of the company. If the firms operates in a monopolistic environment, then profit maximization is possible, as it's the only firm. If the firm operates in a perfectly competitive environment, the goal of profit maximization is not possible, as profit can be influenced by new firms who enter the environment and old firms who exit it.
