Alocal pizza shop has hired a consultant to it compete with national chains in the area. because most business is handled by these national chains, the local shop operates as a price taker. using historical data on costs, the consultant finds that short-run total costs each day are given by:

stc = 10+q+0.1q²

a) find the short-run marginal cost (smc) function associated with this shop.

b)what is this price-taking firm's short-run supply curve?

c)does this firm have a shutdown price? that is, what is the lowest price at which the firm will produce any pizza?

d)find the short-run average cost (sac) for this shop. find the q where the sac reaches minimum point. how would you verify this?

e) the consultant also claims that any price for pizza of less than $3 will cause the shop to lose money. is this consultant correct? explain.

f) currently the price of pizza is low ($2) because one major chain is having a sale. because this price does not cover average costs, the consultant recommends that this shop cease operations until the sale is over. would you agree with this recommendation? explain.
