Answer to Question 1

The revenue of a firm is equal to the price of the goods multiplied by the quantity of goods sold. On the other hand, the profit of a firm is equal to the difference of the revenue that a firm earns and the costs it incurs.
If a firm sells 20 units of a good at 5 each, its revenue is equal to 20  5 or 100.
If the average total cost of the firm is 3, the total cost it incurs is 20  3 or 60.
Hence, profits of the firm are 100 - 60 or 40.
