The first table shows cost data for a single firm. Now suppose that there are 600 identical firms in this industry, each with the same cost data. Suppose, too, that the demand curve for this industry is as shown in the second table.

Price	Quantity Demanded
$20	6,800
30	5,975
45	5,500
60	5,125
75	4,500
95	4,200
120	3,600
150	2,400

Based on all these data, the equilibrium price of the product in the market will be

Multiple Choice

$95.
$75.
$120.
$60.

Solutions

Expert Solution

Answer: $95

Supply curve is same as MC curve. Once you get the MC curve for 1 firm, then aggregate it for 600 firms. This has been shown in the table below.

The formula view of this table is as follows for your reference.

The demand and supply curves are as follows. From this diagram, it seems that $95 is the equilibrium price.
