Question : 2
Under which market condition do firms have excess capacity?
a) Oligopoly
b) Perfect competition
c) Monopolistic competition
d) Duopoly
Answer »Answer: (c)
Unlike a perfectly competitive firm, a monopolistically competitive firm ends up choosing a level of output that is below its minimum efficient scale. When the firm produces below its minimum efficient scale, it is under-utilizing its available resources.
In this situation, the firm is said to have excess capacity because it can easily accommodate an increase in production. This excess capacity is the major social cost of a monopolistically competitive market structure.

a) oligopoly
b) perfect competition
c) monopoly

Question : 6
Which from the following is not true when the interest rate in the economy goes up ?
a) Return on capital increases
b) Saving increases
c) Lending decreases
d) Cost of production increases
Answer »Answer: (a)
The interest rate is the cost of demanding or borrowing loanable funds. Alternatively, the interest rate is the rate of return from supplying or lending loanable funds. The demand for loanable funds takes account of the rate of return on capital.
The rate of return on capital is the additional revenue that a firm can earn from its employment of new capital. This additional revenue is usually measured as a percentage rate per unit of time, which is why it is called the rate of return on capital.
Firms will demand loanable funds as long as the rate of return on capital is greater than or equal to the interest rate paid on funds borrowed. In case of an increase in interest rate, return on capital decreases.
