- Draw a monopolists demand curve, marginal revenue, and marginal cost curves. Identify the monopolists profit-maximizing output level. Now, think about a slightly higher level of output (sayQ0+1). According to the graph, is there any consumer willing to pay more than the marginal cost of that new level of output? If so, what does this mean?Draw an example of a monopoly with a linear demand curve and a constant marginal cost curve. a. Show the profit-maximizing price and output and and identify the areas of consumer surplus, producer surplus, and deadweight loss. Also show the quantity that would be produced if the monopoly were to act like a price taker. b. Now suppose that the demand curve is a smooth concave-to-the-origin curve (whose ends hit the axes) that is tangent to the original demand curve at the point Explain why the monopoly equilibrium will be the same as with the linear demand curve. Show how much output the firm would produce if it acted like a price taker. Show how the welfare areas change. c. Repeat the exercises in part b if the demand curve is a smooth convex-to-the-origin curve (whose ends hit the axes) that is tangent to the original demand curve at the pointAssume the definition of deductible elasticity that gives non-negative figures for normal demand. A monopoly that maximizes profit adapts so that the deductible elasticity is 2 and the price is NOK 500.What must then be the marginal costs of the monopoly? (Answers in whole kroner.)
- You are the manager of a monopolistically competitive firm. The demand curve of the firm is linear, and the marginal cost is a fixed constant. a. Graphically illustrate the profit-maximizing output and price set by the monopolistic firm. b. If the government set a tax of $t per unit sold, graphically illustrate how the output and price of the monopolist’s profit maximization will change? *Please show all work*Do you agree or disagree with each of the following statements? Explain your reasoning. a. For a monopoly, price is equal to marginal revenue because a monopoly has the power to control price. b. Because a monopoly is the only firm in an industry, it can charge virtually any price for its product. c. It is always true that when demand elasticity is equal to –1, marginal revenue is equal to 0.Assume the following equations describe the conditions for a monopoly: Qd = 2,000 - 100P TC = 3,500 + 5q + .005q2 Where Qd is the quantity demanded, P is the commodity's price in dollars, TC is the firm's total cost in dollars and q is the quantity of output produced. Based upon these equations, answer the following questions: a. What is the firm's equation for total revenue expressed as a function of quantity? b. What is the firm's equation for marginal revenue expressed as a function of quantity? What is the firm's equation for marginal cost expressed as a function of quantity? c. What is the firm's profit maximizing quantity of output? d. What price will the firm charge for the commodity? e. What would be the socially optimal quantity of output? f. What price would regulators have to establish in order to have the firm produce the socially optimal quantity of output?
- Consider a single-price monopoly. The government is considering to impose 10% tax on its profits. After the tax, the deadweight loss in this market will increase. True FalseExercise 5. You are the manager for a monopoly with costs, demand, and marginal revenueas in the graph at the top on Figure 1.a. Does the fact that you operate in a monopoly always guarantee that you can achievehigher profits by increasing the price? Explain.b. Draw the area representing the profits on the top graph on Figure 1.c. Suppose one of your suppliers just announced an increase in prices for a specific partthat your product requires. What should the impact be to each of the curves on thetop graph of Figure 1? Explain carefully.d. Suppose economic conditions change in such a way that the demand curve for yourcompany shifts left.i. Draw a demand curve on the bottom graph on Figure 1 that leads to zero economicprofits.ii. Draw a demand curve on the bottom graph on Figure 1 such that any furtherleftward demand shift will cause you to shutdown.(ONLY PART D) You are the manager for a monopoly with costs, demand, and marginal revenue as in the graph at the top on Figure 1. a. Does the fact that you operate in a monopoly always guarantee that you can achieve higher profits by increasing the price? b. Draw the area representing the profits on the top graph on Figure c. Suppose one of your suppliers just announced an increase in prices for a specific part that your product requires. What should the impact be to each of the curves on the top graph of Figure 1? Explain d. Suppose economic conditions change in such a way that the demand curve for your company shifts Draw a demand curve on the bottom graph on Figure 1 that leads to zero economic profits. Draw a demand curve on the bottom graph on Figure 1 such that any further leftward demand shift will cause you to shut down.
- What is the value of producer surplus? What is the value of deadweight loss? Assume that the firm is a monopoly with perfect price discrimination. What is its profit?Consider a natural monopoly with large fixed costs and a constant marginal cost of production, such as supplying water to household. Which condition can be used to regulate such a natural monopoly to ensure that the firm continues to operate while maximizing consumer surplus? Question 23Answer a. Demand = Average Cost b. Demand = Marginal Cost c. Marginal Cost = Marginal Revenue d. Price = Marginal Cost e. Price = Marginal RevenueSuppose that Eric has a Magazine monopoly. The following table gives Eric's demand and costs per month for subscriptions to basic cable: Price Quantity Total Revenue Marginal Revenue Total Cost Marginal Cost $27 3 $56 26 4 73 25 5 91 24 6 110 23 7 130 22 8 151 a. If Eric wants to maximize profits, what price should it charge, and how many Magazine subscriptions per month should it sell? How much profit will Eric make? Suppose the local government imposes a $45 per month tax on Magazine companies. b. What price should Eric now charge, and how many subscriptions should it sell? What will its profits be?
