Suppose a pro�t-maximising perfect
competitor’s daily output level to make a
pro�t is 100 units per day. Which of the
following statements is FALSE?


a. The perfect competitor’s average
�xed cost (AFC) for each unit of
output will equal the gap between
its SAC and average variable cost
(AVC) curves at an output of 100
a day.

b. The perfect competitor’s total
cost (TC) will equal its AVC at an
output of 100 a day multiplied by
100.

c. The perfect competitor’s pro�t per
unit of output will equal the gap
between its average revenue (AR)
curve and its short-run average
cost (SAC) curve at an output of
100 a day.

d. The perfect competitor’s total
revenue (TR) will equal its AR at
an output of 100 a day multiplied
by 100.
