If the price a perfectly competitive firm receives for its product is $40, then it should produce which of the
following amounts of output to maximize profit?

Respuesta :

Answer:

300 units

Explanation:

Note: The graph of the question is attached below

A typical perfectly competitive firm will produce where its Marginal Revenue = Marginal Cost and we know that in perfect firm competition, Marginal Revenue = Price. So this firm will maximize profit by producing where Price = Marginal Cost.

In application to the question given, the firm will produce 300 units where Price and MC both are $40.
