Which of the following correctly states the main prediction of the excess-capacity theorem?
◦ When price-taking firms maximize their profits by setting price equal to marginal cost, each firm operates with some excess capacity.
◦ Monopolistic firms will achieve positive economic profits by restricting output below the economically efficient level at which average total costs are minimized.
◦ Profit-maximizing firms will always choose to operate with some degree of excess capacity, in order to be flexible in the face of shifts in demand.
◦ Long-run equilibrium in a monopolistically competitive industry occurs with all firms producing at a lower output level than that which minimizes average total costs.
◦ All firms in a perfectly competitive industry will produce at a lower output level than that which minimizes average total costs.
