The demand function for a monopolist is given by: P1 = 1,250 – 3.5Q and the cost function is given by C(Q) = 1,200 +1.5Q + 0.8Q2. This firm, Otsuka, is a pharmaceutical holding a patent on a depression treatment, Rexulti. However, the patent expired, and a generic treatment is offered in the market. Now, the new market price is P=$400.    What is optimal Q given the new market price?

Total costs for a monopolist are defined as: C(q) = q3 + 1 Hence, marginal costs are: MC(q) = 3q2 If market demand is: P(q)=100 - 10q. a) How much is the monopolist going to produce? b) Provide a graphical representation of your results. c) If the monopolist could discriminate prices perfectly, how would your answers to a) and b) change.

A monopolist produces a unique product in three different plants, each with its own marginal cost structure. The overall market demand for the product is governed by = the demand function Q 128 8* P,where is the total quantity demanded, and Pis the market price. To meet this demand, the monopolist must decide on the allocation of production quantities Q1, Q2 and Q3 across Plant 1, Plant 2, and Plant 3 respectively. The marginal costs (MC) for producing the good in each plant are as follows: MC₁ = 1, MC₂ = 1/²+Q2 and MC3 = Q3. How many units should the monopolist optimally produce in Plant 1 to contribute to the total market demand 62 units 63 units O unit -

For a monopolist's product, the cost function is c = 0.004q³ + 20q + 5000 and the demand function is p = 450 - 4q. Find the profit-maximizing output. The profit-maximizing output is (Round to the nearest whole number as needed.)

A movie monopolist sells to students and adults. The demand function for students is Qds = 600 - 100P and the demand function for adults is Qda = 1200 - 100P. The marginal cost is $2 per ticket. What is the difference in the monopolist's profit when it is able to price discriminate and when it cannot? $0 $450 $50 $2500

f Q = 100/p and c(q) = q2, what is the optimal level of output for the monopolist

Tobacco King is a monopolist in the cigarette market in Nicotiana Republic, where the Singaporean dollar is used as the official currency. The firm has a constant marginal cost of $2.00 per pack. The fixed cost of the firm is $50 million. The firm’s demand curve can be expressed as P = 8 - 0.04Q, where Q is the quantity demanded (in millions of packs) and P is the price per pack (in $).] [In a table show Tobacco King, the monopolist’s demand schedule, total revenue, average revenue, and marginal revenue for prices $2, $4, $6, and $8. (Hint: demand schedule refers to prices and quantity demanded at those prices).  Based on the table created in answer to part (a), show Tobacco King’s average revenue and marginal revenue curves in a graph. Comment on why the MR curve lies below the AR curve in 100 words or less. Add marginal cost curve to the graph drawn in part (b). Find out the price and quantity combination of cigarettes packets at which, Tobacco King will maximize its profit

Suppose a monopolist faces two markets withdemand curves given by D1(p1) = 200 − p1D2(p2) = 100 − 2p2Assume that the monopolist’s cost function is c(y) = y2 1. What is the optimal prices for the monopolist if it can charge different prices in these markets?2. What is the optimal price if the monopolist must charge the same price in each market?3. How much total consumers’ surplus changes between the two separate prices and the sameprice cases?

A monopolist's costs are given by: C(Q) = 4Q² + 10Q + 100 and it faces the demand function: P = 50 - Q
