Does monopolistically competitive firms have horizontal marginal cost curve?
No it does not. Only Perfectly Competitive firms have a horizontal Marginal Cost curve, which is also there demand curve.
6 If the average total cost curve is falling what is necessarily true of the marginal cost curve If the average total cost curve is rising what is necessarily true of the marginal cost curve?
When average total cost curve is falling it is necessarily above the marginal cost curve. If the average total cost curve is rising, it is necessarily below the marginal cost curve.
The supply curve of a monopoly is its marginal cost curve true or false?
Flase, The suuply curve of a "perfect competition" is its marginal cost curve
Profit maxiamisation in a perfect economy?
Profit maximization occurs when the firm produces /sets their price at the intersection of the marginal cost curve and the horizontal MR DARP curve (marginal revenue, demand, average revenue, price)
Why does the marginal cost curve correspond to the supply curve?
A perfectly competitive firm's supply curve is that portion of its' marginal cost curve that lies above the minimum of the average variable cost curve. A perfectly competitive firm maximizes profit by producing the quantity of output that equates price and marginal cost. As such, the firm moves along it's marginal cost curve in response to alternative prices. Because the marginal cost curve is positively sloped due to the law of diminishing marginal returns, the firm's supply curve is also positively sloped.

What happens when the slope of the total revenue curve is equal to the slope of the total cost curve?
a. monopoly profit is maximized. b. marginal revenue equals marginal cost. c. the marginal cost curve intersects the total average cost curve. d. the total cost curve is at its minimum. e. Both A and B
Discuss equilibrium of a firm under monopoly what are the conditions of equilibrium?
when marginal revenue equal to marginal cost,when marginal cost curve cut marginal revenue curve from the below and when price is greter than average total cost
Why supply curve of a monopoly equals to its marginal cost curve?
It's not
The price charged by a profit-maximizing monopolist occurs at?
the point where the marginal cost curve intersects the marginal revenue curve
Does marginal cost curve always intersect the average cost curve at the average cost curve's lowest point?
When the marginal cost is below the average total costs or the average variable costs,then the AC would be declining.When marginal cost is above the average cost then the average cost would be increasing.Therefore the marginal cost should intersect with the average cost at the lowest point in order to pull the average cost upwards.
A firm's marginal cost curve above the average variable cost curve is also?
A firm's short run supply curve
Why the marginal cost curve always cut the average cost curve at its lowest point?
This is because if a marginal figure is less than an average figure, the new average figure will decrease.
