Why do we model a competitive firm with assumptions that seem to be unrealistic? Why do we see that marginal cost tends to increase with each unit of output? Why do we observe a U-shaped Average Cost Curve? Why is it the Marginal Revenue equal to the Price? What does it mean that the Marginal Revenue curve is a flat horizontal curve? Why do we assume that companies are profit-maximizing institutions? After all, they may care about something else besides profit. Also, what kind of information is profit communicating to society?
