A monopoly sells Frisbees to two customer groups. Group A has a downward-sloping straight-line demand curve, whereas the demand curve for Group B is infinitely elastic. Draw the graph determining the profit-maximizing discriminatory prices and sales to the two groups. What will be the price of Frisbees to Group B? Why? How is the price to Group A determined?
