    Note: if a perfectly competitive firm's price is less than the average total cost they are incurring a loss.

    To find the total loss the broccoli farm is incurring:

    price per crate of broccoli $25

    average cost: $30

    crates: $35

    First, multiply the price per crate or broccoli $25 by the 35 crates = $875

    Next, multiply the average cost of $30 by the 35 crates = $1,050

    Then, subtract the two $875 - $1,050 = - $175
