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?

Before you go ahead and challenge the monopolist, what possibility should you consider for how the monopolist might react?
How can a monopolist identify the profit-maximizing level of output if it knows its total revenue and total cost curves?
