The cashew industry is perfectly competitive and until now each of the identical firms in the industry have been earning zero economic profits while selling ay units of output each (for a combined industry-wide total of qy units) at a market equilibrium price of P1 per unit. An unexpected increase in the demand for cashews raises the market equilibrium price to P2, which creates a situation in which P2 exceeds MC at 91 units of output. a. If the firms continued producing 91 units each, would their combined output of cashews be too little, too much, or just right to achieve allocative efficiency?
i. Just right
ii. Too much
iii. Too little
b. In the long run, what will happen to the supply of cashews and the price of cashews?
i. The industry's supply of cashews will exceed Q1 and the price of cashews will equal P1.
ii. The industry's supply of cashews will be less than Q1 and the price of cashews will be less than P1.
iii. The industry's supply of cashews will equal Q1 and the price of cashews will equal P2.
iv. The industry's supply of cashews will exceed Q1 and the price of cashews will equal P2.
