Consider a monopoly firm which has T=1000+40Q+0.1 Q² MC=40+0.2 Q and demand is P=240-0.15Q so MR =240-0.30Q a)find the monopoly outcome (Q,price and profit). b)find the competative outcome (Q,price and profit) c)Now continue to assume competative pricing is forced in the firm ,and presume the monopoly can make copies of its factory .find Qmes and ACmin .the market quantity and finally revenue and CS.

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+ 50². a) For a monopoly, calculate the profit-maximizing price, quantity, consumer surplus, producer surplus, and deadweight 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. 4

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

Consider a downstream monopolist producing a final good that requires two inputs in fixed proportions. Input 1 is produced by upstream monopolist U1 and input 2 is produced by upstream monopolist U2. Suppose that the demand function for the final product is linear and the marginal costs of production for the upstream producers and final producer (other than for the two inputs) are equal to zero. What is the effect of a merger between the two upstream producers? a) The merger reduces the quantity of the final product sold to consumers and the merged firm's profits. b) The merger reduces the quantity of the final product sold to consumers and increases the merged firm's profits c) The merger increases the quantity of the final product sold to consumers and the merged firm's profits. d) The merger increases the quantity of the final product sold to consumers and decreases the merged firm's profits. e) Cannot be determined given the information provided.
