- Suppose that the monopolist from Question 4 is now forced to charge the same price in both markets. Using thedemand functions and cost function from Question 4, what is the total inverse demand in this case? What is theprofit-maximizing price? What is the monopolist’s profit? (Question 4 = A monopolist is operating in two separate markets. The inverse demand functions for the two markets are P1 = 35 – 2.5Q_1 and P2 = 30 – 2Q_2. The monopolist’s total cost function is TC(Q) = 8 + 5(Q_1 + Q_2). Q_1 means Q subscript 1Suppose that the demand for a special kind of silica is given by Q = 55 – 0.5P, where Q is in tons of silica per day and P is the price per ton. This special kind of silica is produced by Thorpe Industries (a monopolist) that has a constant marginal and average total cost of $10 per ton. [up to 6 points] a. Derive the inverse demand and marginal revenue curves faced by Thorpe Industries. b. Equate marginal cost and marginal revenue to determine the profit-maximizing level of output. c. Find the profit maximizing price for Thorpe Industries. d. How would your answer change if marginal cost were instead given by MC = 10+Q?A monopolist with a marginal cost MC = 2 faces two types of customer groups. Type 1 has itinverse demand function P1 = 10 - 0.5x, while type 2 has the inverse demand functionP2 = 10-x. What prices will the monopolist charge if he can discriminate on price between the two groups?Calculate, illustrate with the help of figures and explain the intuition behind the result.
- The supply chain for Pappy Van Winkle bourbon is characterized by a monopolist upstream producer and a competitive downstream retail sector. Final consumers’ demand for Pappy Van Winkle bourbon is given as: P=140-2Q, where Q is the number of bottles that are purchased each day. The marginal cost of production (i.e., performing the manufacturing function) can be written as: MCM=30+2Q, and the marginal cost of performing the retail function is MCA=20. Suppose that the two firms are not vertically integrated. Construct the final consumers’ demand curve.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 reaction curve of oligopolists? b) What will be the production of each of the companies? c) What is the selling price practiced by oligopolists? d) What is the profit of each of the oligopolists? e) 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…Suppose a discriminating monopolist is selling a product in four separate markets in which demand functions are: Q1 = 450 – P1; Q2 = 200 – 0.5 P2; Q3 = 150 – 0.25P3 and Q4 = 80 – 0.4P4 Cost function is TC = 95,000 – 100Q. a. As an economic adviser, determine the Prices to be charged in the three markets and amount of output to be sold in each market so that total profits can be maximized. b.Calculate the total profit to be made from the strategy of price discrimination and clearly explain how this strategy has aided this monopolist.
- 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.Assume that a monopolist sells a product with a total cost function: TC = 1200+0.5Q2. The market demand curve is given by the equation: Q=300-P a) For this monopolist, the profit-maximizing price is _________, at which it will sell __________ units of output. b) If this market were supplied by many firms with the same cost function, how much would be produced? _____________ At what price would it be sold? ______________ c) Calculate the loss in efficiency in this market due to the monopoly _____________Suppose a discriminating monopolist is selling a product in four separate markets in which demand functions are: Q1 = 300 – P1; Q2 = 200 – 0.5 P2; Q3 = 150 – 0.4P3 and Q4 = 75 – 0.25P4. Assume further that the total cost of the firm is given as TC = 65,000 – 100Q. As an economic adviser you are required to determine: The prices to be charged in the four markets and the amount of output to be sold in each market so that total profits can be maximized. Calculate the total profit to be made from the strategy of price discrimination. Explain what would have happened if this monopolist did not implement this strategy of price discrimination. Elasticities in each market and comment.
- Suppose that a monopolist, who sells all units at a uniform price, faces an inverse market demand curve P=200- 4Q. If there is no cost of production, what output would the firm produce to maximize profit, what price would the firm charge, and what profit would the firm earn? Give the numerical value of these three variablesHello! I just want to ask for help whether the answers in the given pictures are correct. If it's not, please help me recheck and resolve it. Please refer to the given pictures below for the answers. After verifying the given answers shown in the subsequent picture, PLEASE ANSWER LETTER D. SITUATION/PROBLEM: Consider a price discriminating monopolist facing two markets for its good. The demand equations faced by the monopolist and its cost function are: Market 1: Q1 = 55 - P1 Market 2: Q2 = 70 - 2P2 Cost Function: TC(Q) = 100 + 5Q, where Q = Q1 + Q2. a. If the monopolist can maintain the separation between the two markets, calculate the optimal output level that the firm should produce for each market to maximize profits. b.
