Consider a market with a common demand function given by Q-100-2P, where Q represents quantity and P represents price. The total cost function for firms in this market is TC= 1000+ 5Q². a) For a monopoly, calculate the profit-maximizing price, quantity, consumer surplus, producer surplus, and dead weight loss. b) Compare the monopoly equilibrium to the equilibrium in perfect competition. Calculate the price, quantity, consumer surplus, producer surplus, and deadweight loss under perfect competition. c) Use a single graph to illustrate both the monopoly and perfect competition equilibriums.

Saltanat has a monopoly on ginger (имбирный) cookies in Almaty.  The inverse demand function for the cookies is P = 100 – Q, where P denotes price and Q denotes quantity.  The marginal cost is zero.  a)Calculate P, Q and profits, if Saltanat maximizes profits. b) Now suppose instead that the ginger-cookie industry is competitive.  Calculate P, Q and profits.

Suppose that the demand a monopoly faces is given by: Q = 10 − P + 10A, where Q is the quantity of output and A is the quantity of advertising. Suppose the cost of advertising and output is given by: C(Q, A) = Q^2 + 100A. Derive profit-maximizing quantity, price, and the quantity of advertising

Q,)Assume a monopoly market characterized by the following: P = 10 – 1.5Q (demand curve) MC = 2 + Q (marginal cost curve) Find the monopolist’s equilibrium price and quantity consistent with profit maximization

Kalamazoo Competition-Free Concrete (KCC) is a local monopolist of ready-mix concrete. Its annual demand function is Q* = 10,000 – 200P, where Pis the price, in dollars, of a cubic yard of concrete and Qis the number of cubic yards sold per year. Suppose that Kalamazoo's marginal cost is $20 per cubic yard and fixed costs are sunk. Instructions: Round your answers to 2 decimal places. a. What is the deadweight loss from monopoly pricing? b. Now suppose that fixed costs are avoidable and large enough such that the monopolist elects not to produce. What is the deadweight loss from the monopoly not producing? %24

Subject:

Consider a monopoly market with demand curve Q(P) = . Suppose that producing a good costs $1 per unit and the firm must produce at least 1 unit by law. (1) What is the elasticity of demand? (2) How much would the monopolistic firm produce?

For the monopoly represented by the figure to the right, at what quantity is its revenue maximized? (Hint: Revenue is maximize where MR = 0.) Why is revenue maximized at a larger quantity than profit? Show the revenue curve. In the figure to the right, let D be demand and MR be marginal revenue. The quantity at which revenue is maximized is Q = 10 units. (Enter your response rounded to the nearest whole number.) Revenue is maximized at a larger quantity than profit because A. costs are decreasing in output. OB. marginal costs can be negative. C. marginal revenue is decreasing in output. OD. D. revenue is greater than profit. OE. profit is decreasing in output. Using the three-point curved line drawing tool, graph the monopoly's revenue curve. Label this curve 'R.' Carefully follow the instructions above, and only draw the required objects. p. $ per unit 30 28- 26- 24- 22- 20- 18- 16- 14- 12- 10- 8- 6- 4- 2- 0- 024 100- 90- 80- 70- 60- 50- 40- 30- 20- 10- 0- 6 MR D 8 10 12 14 16 18 20…

Consider a monopoly with inverse demand given by P(q)=a-bq and cost function c(q)=cq, where a>c>0 and b>0 are parameters, and q is the quantity supplied by the monopoly. Find the monopoly’s profit-maximizing price and output, and calculate the output and the welfare loss compared to the competitive outcome.

Consider a monopoly that faces the demand curve P = 20 − Q, and has the marginal cost curve MC = 2. a) Use the demand curve to find the equation of the marginal revenue curve. b) Find the profit-maximizing price and quantity for this monopoly if the monopoly uses uniform pricing. What is the producer surplus? c) Now, suppose the monopoly wants to increase profits using block pricing. The total cost the monopoly incurs is T C = 2Q. Find the optimal quantities, Q1 and Q2, and their corresponding optimal prices, P1 and P2 that maximize profits using a two-block pricing scheme. What is the new producer surplus?
