• Profit-maximizing or loss-minimizing output graphs

  542649 Profit-maximizing or loss-minimizing output graphs: Should the firm shut down? For each of the following graphs, identify the firm's profit-maximizing (or loss-minimizing) output. Is each firm making a profit?

• Determining profit maximizing output level

  For profit maximization or loss minimization MR=MC=P In the given case MR=MC=P=$3.50 So, we can say that firm is maximizing its profits or minimizing its losses at this output level.

• Perfect competition and monopoly comparison using specific examples that include ATC, Quantity sold, price, MC, MR, etc.

  (1) Perfectly competitive firm: (a) The loss minimizing/profit maximizing output is to produce where MC = P = MR, that is, in this case at $3.50. That means that it is operating at the loss minimizing/profit maximizing output.
