Perfect competition and the supply curve - the industry supply curve - the long run industry supply curve
12 important questions on Perfect competition and the supply curve - the industry supply curve - the long run industry supply curve
When does the additional producer enter the market?
What will happen when the additional producers enter the industry? what will happen to the total industry output?
- The quantity supplied at any given price increases
- the SRSC will shift to the right
- this will result in a lower market price
- existing firms will respond the the lower market price by reducing their output
- the total industry output will increase because of the large number of firms
What is a situation in which the quantity supplied equals the quantity demanded giver that sufficient time has elapsed for producers to either enter of exit the industry
- Higher grades + faster learning
- Never study anything twice
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
For my 1st exam I got a C. Then, I started looking for ways to learn better and I came across Study Smart. Since then I have scored a A+, A, A- and another A. I highly recommend it to everyone who wants to hear it. I am so happy with it!!
I was struggling to finish all my first-year subjects for 3 years. Then I discovered Study Smart, which helped me to finish all of them within 3 months.
Because of StudySmart, things are going well in many ways. Before, I always had study stress and no time for anything. Now I feel calm and confident (because of the program). I used to score a B, now I usually score an A or A+.
Hey Chris, I really want to thank you very much for developing the platform, I usually got around C for my exams, now I scored an A+, an A and a A- !!
Since using Study Smart, my average has increased significantly. I even completed a statistics course with a A+ while I'm bad at statistics. I took on extra courses this year, because of Study Smart. Thanks so much!
Ever since I started studying with StudySmart I passed all my exams !!! No more re-sits!! At first, I was happy with a pass and now I only get good grades. Many thanks!
I aced all the courses I studied with Study Smart. For law, I first scored a D, and now an A! I’m 100% sure that I’ll pass all the courses I study with Study Smart.
I always thought I studied well. My grades were fine. I could never have imagined that applying these study skills would have such a huge and direct impact on my grades, my speed and the pleasure I have in learning.
For the first time, I finally feel totally confident about the way I learn. I have the perfect overview and make great progress in terms of speed and the grades I get. Thanks, Chris!
I immediately started to enjoy learning again, and my grades soared. All of a sudden, everything went better. I highly recommend Study Smart to all students..
Being able to create my materials online made the process of studying so much smoother and quicker. I no longer have to spend a huge amount of my time on creating my summaries.
At first, my notes were a mess. Now I use Study Smart to take my notes in a perfectly structured way. It helps me to save a lot of time and do other things I enjoy.
Students that study with Study Smart get better grades. The system applies all the learning methods in such a way that both well-performing students and students who struggle perform much better.
Hi Chris, I would like to thank you very much. Last year I scored C on a course, and this year I got an A+ thanks to your method! Thank you very much!
The largest effect is that my child is more enthusiastic about school! Every parent wants their children to be happy at school, Study Smart made it happen.
In high school, I failed several exams, and that has really changed now. I actually needed this tool very much back then. Since I started studying with StudySmart, I haven't had any D's. My average score is now an A and those are results I would have never had in the past
With my old method, I passed only 3 out of 8 courses. Since I started taking my notes digitally in Study Smart, I have passed all my courses on the first try. For me, StudySmart takes away the stress of wondering if I will pass or not.
Thanks to StudySmart, I passed all my exams, and with better grades than before! On top of that, I have mastered a very good study method now, which I am confident will help me earn my degree.
Where does increased industry output come from?
What will happen at price = the supply curve 3=D? And what do we call the equilibrium?
- At this price there is no incentive either for potential to enter and existing producer to exit the industry.
- the new equilibrium where S3 = the demand, and that equilibrium is equals to the market price is the LRME
What will happen to the industry in the long run when demand increases?
over time entry will cause the SRSC of the industry to shift to the right
the firms reduce its output in response to the fall in the market
ultimately arriving back to its original output, the break even point or the minATC
every firm is now in the industry and everyone is making zero economics profit
What is the relationship between the quantity supplied by an industry responds to the price given to that producers have had time to enter or exit the industry? What is the shape of the supply curve?
it is a horizontal line
What do we call it when each firm regardless of whether it is a new entrant or it exits they face the same cost.
When can long run industry supply curve slope upward?
this can only be the case for oligopoly and monopoly
What happens to entry or exit when there is a rise in price?
- becasue a high price caused by an increase in demand
- attracts new producers,
- resulting in a rise in industry output and
- an eventual fall in price
When can long run industry supply curve slope upward?
the industry expand, the price of that input is driven up
later entrants in the industry find that they have higher cost structures than early entrants
Whether the LRSC is horizontal, upward sloping or even downward sloping what happens to the long run industry supply curve and the long run price elasticity of supply when there is free entry and exit?
- The long run industry supply curve is always flatter than the short run industry supply curve
- The long run price elasticity of supply is always higher than the short run price elasticity of supply
