- Create graph that includes: Demand curve, marginal cost, and marginal revenue. Identify the profit-maximizing quantity and price for this monopolist. To do this you will need to determine marginal revenue at each level of output. Choose output that satisfies the monopolist’s profit maximizing condition of MR = MC. Does this firm earn a profit? How much profit if they do?Would producer surplus with second-degree price discrimination not below a single price.The following table shows demand and marginal cost for a monopolist. Calculate marginal revenue (MR) at each quantity. (Enter your response as an integer.) Output (units) (Q) Price per Unit (P) 20 Marginal Revenue (MR) Marginal Cost (MC) -- -- 1 18 18 2 2 16 14 3 14 10 6 12 6 8 10 2 10 A profit-maximizing monopolist will produce units and set a price of $
- Consider a situation when the producer is a monopolist. Assume that the market demand is P=20-Q. The monopolistic marginal cost is equal to zero and the government impresses a unit tax on the producer equal to 10. How is the price level affected by this Tax?Suppose a monopolist sells a product to faculty members and students on the campus. If the firm sets a single price, the monopolist produces 5000 units and sell them at the price of $3 per unit. At this price, the price elasticity of demand for faculty member is -2.5. And the price elasticity of demand for students is -1.5. The monopolist is considering whether she should set different prices for the faculty members and students and asks for your advice. The monopolist is thinking about charging faculty members a 10% higher price. The quantity demanded by the faculty members would fall by %. The monopolist is thinking about charging students a 10% higher price. The quantity demanded by the students would fall by %. Who should the monopolist charge more? mention faculty and students and how muchA single price monopolist has a cost function of c(Q) = 10 + Q, where Q is output. It faces the following demand curve: Q°(p) = 0, if p > 24 and Q°(p) = 120/p, if p s 24. What is the profit-maximizing choice of output? The profit maximizing choice of output is = At this optimum level of output, calculate the consumer surplus. In addition, by drawing a graph, show the area representing the producer surplus (label it by PS) and the area representing the deadweight loss (label it by DWL). Calculate the values of producer surplus and deadweight loss.
- Suppose a monopolist has a marginal cost of $4 and a fixed cost of $48. Suppose the demand curve is Q=12-(P/2). What is the P and Q which maximises consumer surplus? Q=0, P=24 Q=10, P=4 Q=9, P=18 Q=6, P=12 Q=5, P=14Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion A monopolist faces market demand given by P = 1000 – 10Q. For this market, MR = 1000 – 20Q, MC = 100 + 10Q and ATC = 100 + 5Q. If the monopolist does not price discriminate, what is the value of consumer surplus?A single price monopolist has a cost function of c(Q) = Q. It faces the following demand curve: D(p) = 0, if p > 20 and D(p) = 100/p, if p ≤ 20. What is the profit-maximizing choice of output? If the government could set a price ceiling on this monopolist in order to force it to act as a competitor, what price should they set?
- Will the monopolist produce an output level that is allocatively efficient?What is the difference between price-fixing and predatory pricing? How do governments discourage firms from engaging in such practices?Under pure monopoly market (PMM), MR=MC but not equal to Price. Why is this so? And what is the welfare effect of this? Please explain the negative effect to the consumers when MR is NOT EQUAL to Price?
