A firm in a perfectly competitive market has the following cost function c= 1/3q^2-5q^2+3q+10 if the market clearing price is 6 obtain the profit maximizing level of output.
If the market clearing price is P = 6, then the profit maximizing level of output is produced at:
P = MC,
q1 = (10 + 9.38)/2 = 9.69 units,
q2 = (10 - 9.38)/2 = 0.11 units (is not possible in our case).
