Suppose a perfectly competitive industry is in long-run equilibrium. A new one-time cost-saving technology (which is freely available) is then developed and new plants are built. Eventually, a new long-run equilibrium will be established where
◦ all plants continue to operate until they are physically worn out as long as price is greater than the firm's average variable cost.
◦ all plants use the new technology, and market output will be higher and price will be lower.
◦ high-cost and low-cost firms exist side by side and market output will be higher.
◦ the industry supply curve has shifted to the left and price and output are both higher.
◦ new plants employ the new technology, but existing plants continue to produce as long as they cover their fixed costs.
