How is the perceived demand curve for a monopolistically competitive film different from the perceived demand curve for a monopoly or a perfectly competitive film?
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?
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.
Continuing with the scenario in question 1, in the long run, the positive economic profits that the monopolistic competitor earns will attract a response either from existing firms in the industry or film outside. As those films capture the original films profit, what will happen to the original films profit-maximizing price and output levels?
COURSE: MICROECONOMICS - PERFECT COMPETITION AND MONOPOLY (RESUBMITION QUESTION) We appreciate a perfect competition market where there is a predetermined limit number of firms with 20 total firms.Each has the cost function such that: CTi = qi2 + 4qi + 3 where qi indicates numbers of firms (i = 20) The demand in the market is: Q = 100 - 4pa) What is the individual supply of each firm?b) What is the supply of the whole industry?c) Obtain the market equilibriumIn the case where a new firm intended to enter a monopolist's market:(a) What kind of legitimate entry barriers can the firm face understanding the nature of the market it wishes to enter?b) What type of anticompetitive barriers could the firm already in the market present?
A drug company introduces a drug which is protected by a patent. Therefore,it is a monopoly in that specific market. Suppose that inverse demand for the drug isgiven by P(y) = 100 − y/2. And cost function is C(y) = y2 + 10y + 100.a. What is the profit maximizing output and price?b. Calculate the profit, consumer’s surplus, producer’s surplus and thedeadweight loss.Suppose that the patent expires and the market becomes perfectly competitive.c. Find the profit maximizing output and price. And compare your answer with(a).d. Calculate the profit, consumer’s surplus, producer’s surplus and thedeadweight loss. And compare your answer with (b).
One of these four answers best represents the condition that generates a natural monopoly. Which one? OA single firm controls an industry because there are very few customers in the industry. The government prohibits entry into an industry. O The firm takes anti-competitive actions to keep other firms out. O Economies of scale are large relative to quantity demanded in a market
