We were unable to transcribe this imageNow, assume that one of the hot dog stands successfully lobbies the city council to obtain the exclusive right to sell hot dogs within the city limits. This firm buys up all the rest of the hot dog stands in the city and operates as a monopoly. Assume that this change doesn't affect demand and that the new monopoly's marginal cost curve corresponds exactly to the supply curve on the previous graph. Under this...

The graph to the right shows the Marginal Cost (MC), Average Total Cost (ATC), and Marginal Revenue (MR) curves for a perfectly (or purely) competitive firm. Note that the Demand (D) curve is the same as the MR curve for such a MR/MC ($) firm. Assume that the cost curves here are representative of other firms in the industry. Given the current price, this firm will: earn a positive profit. earn a negative profit. earn zero economic profit. In the...

Problem Setup
Analyze each of the following three scenarios (Efficient, A, and
B) describing the market for widgets.
Consider the market for widgets. Consumers have a market
(aggregate)
marginal benefit curve of MB = 50 – 3Q. The supplier(s) in that
market have a market (aggregate) marginal cost curve of MC = 10 +
2Q.
Efficient Outcome
● Use the marginal benefit and marginal cost equations given
above to determine the efficient quantity
Equilibrium with Marginal Cost Pricing (Scenario
A)...

Table 2 Shows Media Cable’s demand table, total revenue, and marginal revenue at each price. Why, at any price lower than $130, is the marginal revenue from an additional sale less than the price? Table 2 Price Amount Demanded Total Revenue Marginal Revenue $160 0 $0 n/a $130 90 $11,700 $130.00 $100 200 $20,000 $75.45 $80 350 $28,000 $53.33 $40 600 $24,000 -$16.00 $0 850 $0 -$96 .00 Question 5 options: a) Lowering the price means that Media Cable lowers...
price ceiling
Suppose that the demand curve for wheat isQ=120−10pand the supply curve isQ=10p.The government imposes a price ceiling of p=$3 per unit.a. How do the equilibrium price and quantity change? (round quantities to the nearest integer and round prices to the nearest penny)The equilibrium quantity without the price ceiling is 6060 and the price without the price ceiling is $66.The equilibrium quantity with the price ceiling is 3030. b. What effect does this ceiling have on consumer surplus, producer surplus, and...
