# Question
1

A firm is operating under the conditions of imperfect competitive industry. The cost and revenue are given as follows:

TC=2Q+5

AR=8-Q

Where TC=Total Cost, AR=Average Revenue  and Q=Quantity of output produced/Sold.

If this firm is incurring a loss of 77 Tshs;

  1. Compute the level of output at which the firm is producing
  2. Give six reasons that may have caused this firm to incur loses
