If the price is Po what should the firm do? O The firm should shut down in the short-run because price is below AVC. In the long-run, they will assess the market conditions to see whether they should reopen for business or exit the market. O The firm should decrease production because marginal revenue is greater than marginal cost. Therefore, the firm has not maximized operating profits. O The firm should exit the market because firms will soon enter. This will drive the price below ATC, which will cause the firm to earn economic losses. O The firm should increase production because marginal cost is less than marginal revenue. Therefore, the firm has not maximized operating economic profits. O The firm should shut down in the long-run because price is below AVC. In the long-run, they will assess the market conditions to see whether they should reopen for business or exit the market. They will reopen if price remains below AVC.
