Suppose ABC Corp. is producing newsprint in a perfectly competitive industry. We have the following information about the firm's production:
- output (Q) = 1500 tonnes per month
- average total cost (ATC) = $627 per tonne
- average variable cost (AVC) = $614 per tonne
- marginal revenue (MR) = $620 per tonne
- marginal cost (MC) = $620 per tonne
Suppose ABC Corp. chooses to temporarily halt production in its current period. Is this a profit-maximizing choice for this firm?
◦ No. The firm is covering its ATC and should continue to produce so it can cover some of its fixed costs, which it will incur whether it produces or not.
◦ Yes. The firm is not covering its ATC and is incurring losses in each period.
◦ No. The firm is covering its AVC and should continue to produce so it can cover some of its fixed costs, which it will incur whether it produces or not.
◦ Yes. The firm is not covering its AVC and is incurring losses in each period.
◦ There is not enough information to determine this.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
