PLEASE COMMENT TO LET ME KNOW THAT THIS IS HELPING MY FELLOW PHOENIX. 1. A purely- or perfectly-competitive firm would be characterized by which of the following?
Hint : The different types of firms include pure competition, pure monopoly, monopolistic competition, and oligopoly. A. Large number of firms, price taker, free entry and exit, and standardized product B. Large number of firms, price maker, free entry and exit, and a differentiated product C.

In the case of a purely competitive firm, as opposed to other market structures, a producer can provide as much as they want at the market price, so producers don't need to change the price for the product to sell additional units. In other words, the revenue received for the first unit is the same as that of the last unit sold, which is the same as the revenue for the next unit sold (marginal revenue).
