- 4. A pharmaceutical firm is marketing a patented drug it has developed (the firm therefore has monopoly rights over the drug). The demand for the drug is given by Q = 8000 - 8P (MR(Q) = 1000 - = 8000 - 8P (MR(Q) = 1000 - ), where P is the price of the drug (in cents), and the total cost of production is TC(Q) = Q2+100Q+10000 (MC(Q) = 2Q + 100). a. Calculate the (monopoly) price of the drug, PM, and the quantity sold, QM b. Suppose now that the drug's patent expires, and other pharmaceutical firms can begin producing it. Assume this result in a competitive supply of the drug, and calculate the long-run competitive equilibrium price and aggregate quantity. Compare these to those you found in part a.arrow_forwardFemi's Hook NLadder is the only company selling fire engines in the fictional country of Alexandrina. Femi initially produced eight trucks, but then decided to increase production to nine trucks. The following graph gives the demand curve faced by Femi's HookNLadder. As the graph shows, in order to sell the additional fire truck, Femi must lower the price from $80,000 to $40,000 per truck. Notice that Femi gains revenue from the sale of the additional engine, but at the same time, he loses revenue from the initial eight engines because they are all sold at the lower price. Use the purple rectangle (diamond symbols) to shade the area representing the revenue lost from the initial eight engines by selling at $40,000 rather than $80,000. Then use the green rectangle (triangle symbols) to shade the area representing the revenue gained from selling an additional engine at $40,000.
