Question



Which of the following is correct?

A.

A firm under perfect competition is in equilibrium where AR = MR

B.

A firm under monopoly is in equilibrium where TR = MR

C.

A firm under monopolistic competition is in equilibrium where AC = MC

D.

A firm under oligopoly is in equilibrium where MR = MC

Correct option is D

A firm reaches equilibrium when it maximizes profit or minimizes losses. This occurs where Marginal Revenue (MR) = Marginal Cost (MC).
· Perfect Competition: The equilibrium condition is MR = MC, not AR = MR (AR = MR only holds true under perfect competition, but equilibrium requires MR = MC).
· Monopoly: The firm maximizes profit where MR = MC, not where TR = MR.
· Monopolistic Competition: The equilibrium condition is also MR = MC, not AC = MC.
· Oligopoly: Firms under oligopoly follow the MR = MC rule for profit maximization.
