Draw the graph for a monopoly with demand, marginal revenue, and marginal cost curves. Identify the profit-maximizing output level (Qm) and price (Pm). Suppose the monopolist sells Qm units of output at the regular price and then puts the product on sale at a lower price, Ps. Show the new price and quantity. Identify the consumer surplus of the additional sales. What happens to the firm’s profits? Does price discrimination lead to a more efficient or less efficient outcome? Why...

A.Draw a graph showing the demand, marginal revenue, and marginal cost curves for a typical monopolist, indicating the profit-maximizing price and level of output. Then, identify the competitive price and level of output. B.Making specific reference to your graph for Part A, identify the welfare costs of monopoly. Specifically, show how consumer and producer surplus are different under monopoly vs. competition, as well as any deadweight loss.

Practice Question 4. The inverse demand curve a monopoly faces is p = 30 – Q. The firm's total cost function is C(Q) = 0.5Q² and thus marginal cost function is MC(Q) = Q. (a) Determine the monopoly quantity, price and profit, and calculate the CS, PS and social welfare under the monopoly. (b) Determine the socially optimal outcome and calculate the CS, PS and social welfare under the social optimum. (c) Calculate the deadweight loss due to the monopolist...

Figure 15-7 The figure below depicts the demand, marginal revenue, and marginal cost curves of a profit- maximizing monopolist. Price $40 30 20 Marginal Cost Demand 10 Margina Revenue 100 200 300 400 Quantity Refer to Figure 15-7. If fixed costs of production = $1,000, monopoly profit without price discrimination equals o $2,000. O $500 O $4,000. $1,000.

Consider a single-price monopolist (i.e. the monopolist cannot price discriminate) facing the following market demand curve: P = 120 − Q. The monopolist has constant marginal cost of $20 and zero fixed cost. (a) Determine the monopolist’s profit maximizing quantity, denoted QM, and profit maximizing price, denoted PM. (b) Determine the quantity and price that would result in the market if this instead were a competitive market, denoted QC and PC, respectively. (c) Draw a picture of the market demand...

Suppose that market demand for a good is given by
QD(P) = 10−P. The total cost of production is TC(Q) =
2Q2. Determine quantity QM and price
PM that a monopolist will choose in this market.
Calculate consumer surplus (CS), producer surplus (PS), and the
deadweight loss (DWL) resulting from the monopoly. Graphical
