To maximize profits after the variable cost increase, Zoe's Bakery will ________ its price and ________ its level of production.

Answer:

Not change

Decrease

The bakery cannot change its price because it operates in a perfectly competitive market.

Instead the bakery would reduce cost by decreasing its level of production.
