Suppose five construction companies have the ability to build a factory overseas to produce a manufactured good The marginal cost of building a factory for each construction company is shown in the table below: Producer Company 1 Company 2 Company 3 Company 4 Company 5 Marginal Cost S1,000,000 $1.250,000 $1,300,000 $1,350.000 $1.500.000 If the market price of an overseas factory is $1.425,000, what is the surplus for these five companies? Producer surplus is S (Enter your response an a whole number
Only typed answer and don't use chatgpt . B) A monopoly has two production plants with cost functions C1 = 50 + 0.1Q12 and C2 = 30 + 0.05Q22. The demand it faces is Q = 500 - 10P. What is the profit-maximizing price?
1 The inverse demand to cross a river is given by P = 8 − Q, where P is the asking price for a passage. Standing Bridge monopoly connects the two shores. The monopoly cost is fixed: C(Q)= 4. - the Government wants to regulate the bridge to maximize the surplus of the consumer while ensuring that Pont Debout does not lose. Suggest an optimal policy for the government.

ASAP Suppose the market for kiwis has a demand curve of the form: Qd = 200-2Pd And that the costs of the monopoly producer of kiwis are determined by Total Cost (Q) = Variable Cost (Q) + Fixed Cost. C (Q) = Q² + 100. That is, its marginal cost will be: MgC (Qs) = 2Qs = Ps A. If the Government regulates this monopoly so that it does not generate welfare losses, how much should the maximum price to impose be? B. If the Government decides to grant a subsidy to reach the amount of the social optimum, would it stop having a loss of welfare? C. Bonus How much the subsidy should be for each unit so that the amount is reached in the social optimum.
1). The DeBeers company is a profit-maximizing monopolist that exercises monopoly power in the distribution of diamonds. If the company earns positive economic profits this year, the price of diamonds will: Exceed the marginal cost of diamonds but equal to the average total cost of diamonds. Exceed both the marginal cost and the average total cost of diamonds. Be equal to the marginal cost of diamonds. Be equal to the average total cost of diamonds. 2). Using 100 workers and 10 machines, a firm can produce 10,000 units of output; using 250 workers and 25 machines, the firm produces 21,000 units of output. These facts are best explained by: Economies of scope Diseconomies of scale Diminishing marginal productivity Economies of scale 3).
