Two countries, both having a monopoly on Y, decide to engage in trade. Graphically illustrate and discuss the welfare effects on country H when the monopoly in country H has a relatively lower cost structure than country F.
Two countries, both having a monopoly on Y, decide to engage in trade. Graphically illustrate and discuss the welfare effects on country H when the monopoly in country H has a relatively higher cost structure than country F.
There are claims saying that free flow of trade prevents monopoly. However, free flow of trade may cause monopoly through predatory pricing. For instance, a foreign industry may dump its goods in a country with free flow of goods strategy. Thus, it forces other rivals out of the market, and will get a monopoly position.
Please provide a counter-argument for the above claim

Is this firm a “natural monopoly”? Answer ‘Yes” or “No” based on your explanation of the meaning of a “natural monopoly.”arrow_forwardMonopoly and Price Elasticity Consider the relationship between monopoly pricing and the price elasticity of demand. If demand is inelastic and a monopolist raises its price, quantity would fall by a (LARGER AND SMALLER) percentage than the rise in price, causing profit to (DECREASE OR INCREASE) . Therefore, a monopolist will (ALWAYS, NEVER OR SOMETIMES) produce a quantity at which the demand curve is elastic. Use the purple segment (diamond symbols) to indicate the portion of the demand curve that is inelastic. (Hint: The answer is related to the marginal-revenue (MR) curve.) Then use the black point (plus symbol) to show the quantity and price that maximizes total revenue (TR).arrow_forward
