Q-3: A monopolist sells in 2 markets and produces in 1 factory. Although the monopolist can charge difference prices in the two markets, it must sell all units within a market at the same price.a) Suppose this monopolist does not have a marginal cost (M C = 0). If demand in market 1 is X1(p1) = a1 −b1p1 and demand in market 2 is X2(p2) = a2 −b2p2, set up the monopolist’s profit maximization problems and solve for the market prices that result in each market.b) Under what conditions on a1, b1, a2, b2 from above will the monopolist not price discriminate?c) If demand in market i, where i = 1 , 2, is instead Xi(pi) = aipi−bi and the monopolist has some constant marginal cost of c, where c > 0, set up the monopolist’s profit maximization problem and solve for the market prices.d) Under what conditions on a1, b1, a2, b2 from above will the monopolist not price discriminate?
Consider a market with the following characteristics. There is a single monopolist whose technology exhibits constant marginal costs; i.e., The market demand curve exhibits constant elasticity, e. There is an ad valorem tax on the price of the good sold so that when the consumer pays a pricePD, the monopolist receives a price of Ps = (1 - T)PD. (HerePDis the demand price facing the consumer andPsis the supply price facing the producer.) . The taxing authority is considering changing the ad valorem tax to a tax on output, t, so that we will havePDPs+ t. You have been hired to calculate the output tax t that is equivalent to the ad valorem tax T in the sense that the final price facing the consumer is the same under either scheme.
16 Suppose a monopoly firm produces bicycles and can sell 10 bicycles per month at a price of $600 per bicycle. In order to increase sales by one bicycle per month, the monopolist must lower the price of its bicycles by $50 to $550 per bicycle. The marginal revenue of the 11th bicycle is Ic raw Multiple Choice $50 $-50. $6,050. $50. Note:- Please refrain from offering handwritten solutions.
