Question

Can you help me understand which statements are true please. 

1. Qm is the quantity that would be sold in a perfectly competitive market

2. Pm is the price that would be charged in a perfectly competitive market
 
3 Pm is the price that would be charged by a monopolist
 
4.The monopolist sells quantity Qm, but consumers would be better off if the firm would sell a larger quantity (specifically that consistent with the point where MC intersects AC)
 
5. Even though the monopolist is restricting supply and charging a higher than competitive market price, the firm is not making a profit because the AC curve is below the price PM it is charging at output Qm
 
6. The monopolist is restricting supply and charging a higher than competitive market price, and the firm is making a profit because the AC curve is below the price PM it is charging at output Qm
