Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

New firms enter a perfectly competitive market as long as the existing firms are making an economic profit. Essentially the new firms enter in order to make an economic profit themselves. Entry stops when it is no longer possible to make an economic profit, which occurs when the existing firms are earning zero economic profit, that is, the owners are earning a normal profit.
