Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

In the long run, a firm in monopolistic competition can earn only zero economic profit, that is, a normal profit. It will not incur an economic loss in the long run because it will close. It cannot earn a positive economic profit because there are no barriers to entry. So if a firm in monopolistic competition is earning an economic profit, in the long run new firms enter the market, produce a similar product, and decrease the demand for the initial firm's product. Entry continues until the firms earn zero economic profit, so its owners make a normal profit.
