- 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?Question 38 (1 point) ✓ Saved A monopolist faces market demand given by P= 100-3Q. For this market, MR=100-5Q and MC-25. What price will the monopolist charge in order to maximize profits? $12.50 $84.50 Another value (not listed) O $25.00 $45.00Consider a monopolist with demand ?? = 90 − 3? and marginal cost MC=20. Determine profit, consumer surplus, and welfare in the following cases: (a) single-price monopolist; (b) perfect price discrimination; (c) intertemporal price discrimination whereby in period 1 the monopolist sets price ?1 and whoever buys leaves the market, then in period 2 the monopolist sets price ?2 for whoever remains in the market
- Part A Suppose that the monopolist can produce a good with total cost TC = 24Q. Assume also that hemonopolist sells its goods in two different markets separated by some distance. The demand curves inthe first market and the second market are given by Q1 = 120 - P1/2 and Q2 = 360 - 3P2. If themonopolist can maintain the separation between the two markets, what level of output should beproduced in each market, and what price will prevail in cach market? Why are the two prices different?Verify the Lemer Index for cach market. Part B Suppose a monopoly faces a demand curve by Q = 154 - P/3. The monopolist has two plants. The firsthas a total cost function given by TC1, = 3Q21 and the second plant's total cost function is given byTC2 = 2Q22 How much total output will the monopoly choose to produce and how will it distributethis production between its two factories in order to maximize profits? Find monopolist's profits.Let the demand and cost curves for a monopolist be If the government imposes a price ceiling of $100 on the monopolist's price, what is the profit earned by the monopolist without and with the price ceiling? O No ceiling: $10,000 Ceiling: $0 O No ceiling: $10,000 Ceiling: $10,000 O No ceiling: $20,000 Ceiling: $10,000 Q = 1000 - 4P 20000 + 50Q TC O No ceiling: $20,000 Ceiling: $0In a market where a monopolist can charge different prices to different groups, which of the following groups will likely be charged the lowest price?O a. the group for which the good is a necessityO b. the group for which the good makes up a large portion of income (big-ticket item)O c. the group for which the good has no good substitutesO d. the group for which the good makes up a small portion of income (small-ticket item)O e. The groups described in (a), (c), and (d) will all get charged a lower price than the group described in (b).
- Suppose both a monopolist and a perfectly competitive firm are producing in theirrespective markets at a point where marginal cost is $8 and marginal revenue is $10. Whatshould the profit-maximizing firms do? Group of answer choices Both the monopolist and the perfectly competitive firm should increase output until MC= MR. The monopolist should keep producing at this level but the perfectly competitive firmshould decrease output until MC = MR. The monopolist should increase output but the perfectly competitive firm should shutdown. Both the monopolist and the perfectly competitive firm should decrease output until MC= MR.A monopolist book publisher with a constant marginal cost of 2 and no fixed costs sells novels in only two countries. Assume the inverse demand curve in country 1 is given by P1=10-2/3Qand the inverse demand curve in country 2 is given byPW=18-QAssuming book shipments across countries are banned so that price discrimination occurs. What is the equilibrium price and quantity of books sold by the monopolist in country 1?Options are: a)p=1, q=16b) p=1 q=12c) p=4, q=8d)p=6, q=6Continuing to assume price discrimination, what is the equilibrium price and quantity of books sold by the monopolist in country 2?a)p= 4,q=14b)p= 6,q=12c)p= 8,q=10d)p= 10,q=8If book imports are permitted in both countries so that price discrimination is impossible, what is the equilibrium price and quantity sold in the two countries combined?a)p=6,q=20b)p=7,q=20c)p=10,q=8d)p=12,q=6Suppose that a monopolist supplies a product in two distinct markets, LA and SF. The demand functions for thetwo markets are PLA = 52 – 4QLA and PSF = 70 – 7QSF. The monopolist has a fixed cost of $20 and a constantmarginal cost of $10 per unit.a. If segmenting is feasible, what are the profit-maximizing prices, quantities, and maximized profit?b. If segmenting is NOT feasible, what is the profit-maximizing price, quantity, and maximized profit?c. How much is the difference in total consumer surplus in the two cases? Which case makes consumers better off?
- E4 Suppose that the monopolist can produce with total cost: TC = 10Q. Assume that the monopolist sells its goods in two different markets separated by some distance. The demand curves in the first market and the second market are given by Q1 = 120 - 4P1, and Q2. = 240 - 2P2. Suppose that consumers can mail the product from cheaper location to a more expensive location freely (mailing cost $0). What would be the monopolist profit? 3750,3500,5250,4000.Consider any market that has a demand curve given by: Qd = 240 - 2P. Where Qd is the total quantity demanded in the market, given in millions of units and P is the market price, calculated in monetary units. Imagine that there are 2 Cournot oligopolists operating in this market with Cmg = CVme = 15 and fixed monthly costs equal to 1,400. About this market, ask yourself: a) What is the profit of each of the oligopolists? b) Imagine that one of the companies managed to implement a process innovation capable of halving its Cmg and CVme, so that they would go from 15 to 7.5. This investment implies an additional monthly expense of $1,800. Discuss the statement: "If this situation occurs, the innovative company will not implement variable cost reduction, as the quantity supplied in the market will increase very little; prices will remain very close to what they are today and its profits will not increase"Q15 Assume that Bandai Namco is a monopolist that can sell 10 units of toy output at $5 per unit and 11 units at $4.80 per unit. For Bandai Namco to profitably produce and sell the eleventh unit of output, its marginal cost must be anywhere at or below Multiple Choice $36. $3.20. $5. $2.80. $4.80.
