Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion A monopolist has a demand curve given by P = 88 − Q and a total cost curve given by TC = 34 + Q2. The associated marginal cost curve is MC = 2Q. Suppose the monopolist also has access to a foreign market in which he can sell whatever quantity he chooses at a constant price of 60. How much will he sell in the foreign market? What will his new quantity and price be in the original market?
QUESTION 1 A. The total cost function for a monopolist is given by TC = 44,000 + 180Q + 0.03Q² and the demand function is P = 420 – 0.06Q per unit of output. i. What is the profit maximising level of output? ii. Calculate the profit maximizing price. iii. Calculate total profit at the profit maximising level of output.
