Answer to Question 1

The price will not change. Any one perfectly competitive firm is such a small part of the market that a change in its output has virtually no effect on the price. This result is why the firm's marginal revenue equals its price: No matter how much (or how little) the firm produces, the marginal revenue from one more unit always equals the price of the product.

Answer to Question 2

A
