The Spacing Guild has a monopoly on space transport. They sell tickets (Q) for seats on starships for interstellar travel at a per-ticket price of P. All tickets cost the same. The Marginal Cost for each seat is $16 and there are no other costs. Market demand is Q=306-5P. What is the difference between the Guild's PRICE and the price that would result if interstellar travel was a perfectly competitive market?
