The marginal cost curve
intersects the ATC and AVC at their minimum points.
In the short run, the marginal cost curve crosses the average total cost curve at
the minimum point of the average total cost curve.

Less than the long run response.
You are the manager of a firm that sells its product in a competitive market at a price of $60. Your firm's cost function is C = 33 + 3Q2. The profit-maximizing output for your firm is

do not intersect one another.
In the long-run, perfectly competitive firms produce a level of output such that:
P = MC and P = minimum of AC.
A perfectly competitive firm faces:
a perfectly elastic demand function.
A study has estimated the effect of changes in interest rates and consumer confidence on the demand for money to be: lnM = 14.666 + .021 lnC - .036 lnr, where M denotes real money balances, C is an index of consumer confidence, and r is the interest rate paid on bank deposits. Based on this study, a 5% increase in interest rates will cause the demand for money to:
drop by .18%.
If an excise tax is imposed on a good, then the supply curve
shifts up by the amount of the tax.
The possibility of the endless cyclical preference is eliminated by the property of
