Why does a monopoly arise? because of diseconomies of scale because entry to an industry is blocked because of elastic demand because firms want to maximize profits

Suppose that only one firm, Big Foot, sells footballs in the country and international trade of footballs including both exporting and importing is prohibited by government due to Big Foot’s successful lobby. The following equations indicates Big Foot’s market demand and total cost:• Demand: P = 5-0.5Q• Total Cost: TC = 1.5 + 0.5Q + 0.25 Q2where Q is quantity (in 1000) and P is the price measured in dollars. (i) Determine how many footballs Big Foot chooses to produce, the price it will set for its product and its expected profit. Illustrate your analysis with a propermarket diagram.(ii) Evaluate the size of deadweight loss cause by monopoly status of Big Foot. Suppose that the parliament passed a new law that not only allows everyone to sell footballs but also opens international trade of footballs. Suppose further that the market demand in the country remains the same while the price of football in the competitive global market is $3 including shipping and importation fee. Analyse…

Use the cost and revenue data to answer the questions. Quantity Price Total Revenue Total Cost 10 90 15 80 20 70 25 60 30 50 35 40 900 1200 1400 1500 1500 1400 675 825 1025 1250 1500 1850 What is marginal revenue when quantity is 25? What is marginal cost when quantity is 15? If this firm is a monopoly, at what quantity will profit be maximized? If this is a perfectly competitive market, which quantity will be produced? $ 20 $ 90 Incorrect quantity: 6 Incorrect quantity: 8 Incorrect

You have been granted a monopoly in the avocado market. The market demand for avocados is Q = 2000 – 2P. Your cost structure is such that your total costs are TC = 1000+ 400Q. (limit: whatever needed) What is your profit maximizing price and quantity? Explain this in words and show it graphically. What are the profit, producer surplus and consumer surplus? The government is thinking about breaking your monopoly into ten identical firms and giving ownership to 10 random people. Correspondingly, each firm would have a fixed cost of $1000 and a marginal production cost of $400 per unit. In this perfectly competitive environment, what would be the equilibrium price and quantity? Explain this in words and show it graphically. What are the profit per firm, producer surplus and consumer surplus that correspond to your answer to part d)? How much would you be willing to pay to keep the government from taking your monopoly away? Explain.

Identify the primary difference between a purely competition and a monopoly market

Based on market research, a film production company in Ectenia obtains the following information about the demand and production costs of its new DVD Demand :P =1000-10Q Total Revenue : TR=1000Q-10Q2 Marginal Revenue: MR=1000-20Q Marginal Cost: MC=100+10Q Where Q indicates the number of copies sold and P is the price in Ectenian dollasrs. a. Find the price and quantity that maximize the company's profit  b. Find the price and quantity that would maximize social welfare c. Calculate the deadweight loss from monpoly. d. Suppose in addition to the costs above. the director of the film has to be paid. The company is considering four options i. a flat fee of 2000 Ectenian dollars ii. 50 percent of the profits. iii. 150 Ectenian dollars per unit sold iv. 50 percent of the revenue. For each option, calculate the profit-maximizing price and quantity. Which if any of these compensation schemes would alter the deadweight loss from monopoly. Explain.

A graph of a monopoly is shown. The initial position of the cost curves do not accurately represent their true relationship. First, move point E to indicate the monopoly's loss-minimizing price and quantity. Then, shift the average total cost (ATC) curve and average variable cost (AVC) curve to show the monopoly operating at a loss. Finally, position the loss box to indicate the monopoly's total loss. Price E MR ATC MC AVC D Loss

The accompanying graph depicts a hypothetical monopoly. Follow instuctions 1−3 below to identify the monopoly's profits. Place point E at the monopoly's profit maximizing price and quantity. Move the average total cost (ATC) curve to a position that depicts the monopoly earning a positive profit. Place the area labeled Profit in the area of the graph that represents the monopoly's profit.

The graph below shows the Market conditions of Honey’s Laundry service, which is the only laundry in Arizon Residential Area. Considering the shop as a Monopoly market, answer the following questions: (a)In order to maximize profit, how many clothes does the shop clean?[Answer in numerical value only without any unit] (b)If the opening of five new laundries turns it into a perfectly competitive market, what should be the price Sunny’s laundry be charging now?[Answer in numerical value only without any unit] (c)Compute the change in total revenue between part a and part b.[Answer in numerical value only without any unit]   Note: Bartleby does not accept more than 3 sub-parts, and here are no more than 3.
