Question

Assume the following demand and cost function of a monopolistically

competitive firm:

P = 100 − 0.2Q

TC = 30Q − 5Q

q=2 + Q3

i. Determine the long run equilibrium price and output of a

monopolistically competitive firm.

ii. How is monopoly solution (price and output) different from that of

monopolistic competitive solution (price and output)?

iii. Find out the perfect competitive solution (price and output) and

compare the results with monopoly and monopolistically

competitive solution (price and output)

iv. Why do results vary from perfect competition to monopolistic

competition to monopoly?

Definition Video Definition Point where the demand and supply curves intersect. At the equilibrium price the quantity supplied of a good is equal to the quantity demanded. When the market is not in equilibrium, market surplus or market shortage occurs. The region that is above the price equilibrium indicates market surplus and the region below the price equilibrium indicates market shortage. Video
