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?
In what sense is a natural monopoly natural?
How can a monopolist identify the profit-maximizing level of output if it knows its total revenue and total cost curves?
What is the usual shape of a total revenue curve for a monopolist? Why?
How does the demand curve perceived by a monopolist compare with the market demand curve?
Suppose demand for a monopolys product falls 50 that its profit-maximizing price is below average variable cost. How much output should the film supply? Hint: Draw the graph.
What is the usual shape of a marginal revenue cuwe for a monopolist? Why?
