- How can a monopolist identify the profit-maximizing level of output if it knows its total revenue and total cost curves?The graph below represents sales per week of ABC Inc. Ltd, a monopoly multinational enterprise that supplies Hi-tech components. Use the graph to answer the questions that follow. "image" i. State the elasticity of the monopoly firm demand curve. ii. Considering the figure, examine the benefits of the characteristics of themonopoly demand curve to ABC Inc. Ltd. iii. Suppose the demand and cost curves result in ABC Inc. Ltd earning aneconomic profit. Do you think ABC Inc. Ltd firm will earn profit in the longrun? Explain your answer. Assume all factors constant. iv. Examine the effects of ABC Inc. Ltd on consumers.(a) What is meant by consumer surplus and producer surplus? Using a diagram show that there is a deadweight loss to society from monopoly in terms of total surplus. (b) In what ways is a monopolistically competitive firm likely to be less efficient than one under perfect competition?
- Questions: 1. What type of monopoly is Meralco? Explain your answer.2. What inefficiencies does the over recovery impose on the market?3. Aside from the government directive, what can be done to prevent Meralco from overcharging?1. Suppose Pepsi Cola, which includes Mt. Dew and several other sodas, purchased Coca-Cola & Coke’s family of sodas to form one large mega-company. What do you believe would happen to the price of sodas in the United States? 2. What would happen to the remaining smaller suppliers? Use all the information we have learned on Supply & Demand and Market Structure and write about the effects. 3. How could a monopoly impact you as a consumer?2 A monopoly sells its goods in the United States, where the elasticity of demand is -2, and in Japan, where the elasticity of demand is -5. Its marginal cost is $10. At what price does the monopoly sell its goods in each country if resale is impossible?
- 2. A monopoly sells its good in Country A, where the elasticity of demand (in absolute value) is 2, and in Country B, where the elasticity of demand (in absolute value) is 3. Its marginal cost is $20. Determine what price does the monopoly sells its good in each country if the monopolist is able to price discriminate. How and why does the price depend on the elasticity of demand?Andrew is a monopolist whose production process exhibits economies of scale. (a) Draw a diagram illustrating Andrew's profit-maximizing price and quantity. On your diagram, identify the deadweight loss of monopoly. (b) The government is concerned that Andrew is charging too high a price and plans to regulate the price. Hustrate the price regulation you would recommend on your diagram and explain your recommendation. (c) What is the maximum amount of money Andrew would be willing to spend lob- bying the government to avoid the price regulation you identified in (b)? 2.Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion The inefficiency (dead-weight loss) of a monopoly (as compared to perfect competition) indicates the amount by which Group of answer choices price exceeds marginal revenue at a particular output level. consumer welfare is increased by the monopolist. price exceeds marginal cost at a particular output level. marginal benefits exceed marginal cost for those units not produced by the monopolist but that would otherwise be produced in a competitive market. marginal costs exceed marginal benefits for those units not produced by the monopolist but that would otherwise be produced in a competitive market.
- Assume that builder XYZ is a monopoly in Sydney’s Southwest, who specialises in apartment construction. (a) Draw a diagram to illustrate XYZ making economic profits before the implementation of the hard lockdown in Sydney’s Southwest. On your diagram clearly indicate the quantity XYZ is choosing to produce and the price XYZ is choosing to charge. (b) Assuming costs remain constant and that that the construction industry is still allowed to operate normally, explain the impact of Sydney’s lockdown on builder XYZ’s demand from Q2 part (a). With the aid of a new diagram, discuss XYZ’s static profit or loss situation after these changes. Clearly indicate the quantity XYZ is choosing to produce and the price XYZ is choosing to charge. (c) Assume that XYZ survives the lockdown and stays in business. If the NSW government decides to double the first home buyer’s grant, explain the impact on XYZ’s demand. With the aid of a new diagram, discuss XYZ’s static profit or loss situation after this…4. A monopolist is faced with the following cost and revenue curves: $ 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 -10 0 -20 100 200 300 400 FMC 500 AC AR 600 MR Quantity (a) What is the maximum-profit output?. (b) What is the maximum-profit price? (c) What is the total revenue at this price and output? (d) What is the total cost at this price and output? (e) What is the level of profit at this price and output? (f) If the monopolist were ordered to produce 300 units, what would be the market price? (g) How much profit would now be made? (h) If the monopolist were faced with the same demand, but average costs were constant $60 per unit, what output would maximise profit? (i) What would be the price now? (j) How much profit would now be made? (k) Assume now that the monopolist decides not to maximise profits, but instead sets a price of $40. How much will now be sold?.GRADUATE STUDIES Practice Question 1 The table below shows the demand for a product produced by a monopolist, who has a constant marginal cost and an average total cost of GH¢45.00 per Quantity (thousand's of units) Price (cedis per unit) 0 120 1 105 2 90 3 75 4 60 5 45 6 30 UPSA 25 GRADUATE STUDIES a.
