Intel is the world’s largest manufacture of semiconductor chips by revenue. During the 1990s, Intel became the dominant supplier of microprocessors for PCs and was known for aggressive and anti-competitive tactics in defense of its market position. Consider the market for Intel’s Pentium II processor, released in May 1997. Assume Pentium II enjoyed a monopoly in computer processors. Intel’s cost of production is characterized by function C = 10Q2, marginal cost MC = 20Q, while the market demand for the product is P = 400 − 10Q.     Calculate Intel’s profit-maximizing quantity for its Pentium II processor. How much would Intel price its Pentium IIs?
