- Answer everything in the photo please.(Figure: Price Discrimination 2) The following figure shows a business that price discriminates. The business will produce at output level C. What range of buyers will be given a discount so that they are induced to buy the good? Price Marginal cost Demand curve Marginal revenue (* Marginal benefit D Quantity Between C and D Between A and B Between A and C Between B and CProfessional football teams earn substantial revenues through ticket sales. (Note: each team is the only seller for the tickets). To maximize profit, they offer significantly lower ticket prices for children (whose demand is elastic) than those for adults (whose demand is inelastic). This discount may be as much as 50 percent. If this type of price discrimination increases revenue and profit, why don’t teams also price discriminate at the concession stands by offering half-price soft drinks and peanuts to children? Critically discuss.
- Monopoly firms are a lot more profitable than perfectly competitive firms. The primary reason is that the monopoly firm charges a price that is greater than marginal cost at the profit maximizing quantity. Explain this statement with a graph. Specifically, explain how the profit maximizing quantity and price are determined.Problem 1. Market demand is P = 100-0.25Q, where Q is the total quantity demanded by consumers. Monopoly's costs are C = 10Q. (10 marks) a) Calculate prices and quantities if the monopoly uses block pricing with two prices. Calculate CS, DWL and firm's profit and demonstrate on a diagram. b) Find firm's output and profit if the firm engages in perfect price discrimination. Show on a diagram. ISuppose a local utility company provides electricity to a small town. The figure to the right illustrates the utility company's marginal cost of providing electricity along with the town's demand for electricity. Part 2 Assume the local utility company is a monopoly. Use the triangle drawing tool to shade in the dead weight loss created by the monopoly (compared to if the market were perfectly competitive). Properly label this shaded area.

(Enter a numeric response using an integer.)What can you say about the price, with and without price discriminationConditions for price discrimination Price discrimination is the practice of selling the same good at more than one price when the price differences are not justified by cost differences. Evaluate the following statement: "Price discrimination is not possible when a good is sold in a perfectly competitive market." False, because perfectly competitive firms do not profit - maximize by setting marginal revenue equal to marginal cost True, because perfectly competitive firms have no market power False, because perfectly competitive firms have market power None of these choices Examples of price discrimination Cho and Ginny are debating the use of coupons by grocery stores. Cho says, "The use of coupons in grocery stores represents a means of price discrimination. It's pure and simple. Coupons do reduce the price of groceries, but mostly to people who are less likely to buy at the full price." By contrast, Ginny contends, "Coupons do not constitute price discrimination. They simply…
- a) Using the following graph state the price and quantity the firm will be at if the monopoly market is in long run equilibrium. Explain why the firm will be at that price and quantity. b) State the conditions that establish the market structure monopoly, and the conditions needed for price discrimination and why firms price discriminate. (image attached)The graph below shows the demands and marginal revenue in two markets, 1 and 2, for a price discriminating firm along with total marginal revenue, MRT, and marginal cost: Price and cost (dollars) 100 80 60 AS 40 20 0 200 100 300 MR1 400 MR2 MC 500 Quantity How should the firm allocate sales between the two markets? 600 D₁ 700 MRT 800 900 D₂ 1000 QAssume that one of the hot dog vendors successfully lobbies the city council to obtain the exclusive right to sell hot dogs within the city limits. This firm buys up all the rest of the hot dog vendors in the city and operates as a monopoly. Assume that this change doesn't affect demand and that the new monopoly's marginal cost curve corresponds exactly to the supply curve on the previous graph. Under this assumption, the following graph shows the demand (D), marginal revenue (MR), and marginal cost (MC) curves for the monopoly firm. Place the black point (plus symbol) on the following graph to indicate the profit-maximizing price and quantity of a monopolist. PRICE (Dollars per hot dog) 5.0 4.5 4.0 3.5 3.0 2.5 2.0 1.5 1.0 0.5 0 0 45 Monopoly MC MR 90 135 180 225 270 315 QUANTITY (Hot dogs) D 360 405 450 Monopoly Outcome Deadweight Loss ?
