The following table shows quantity, price, and marginal cost
information for a monopoly. What price should the firm charge to
maximize its profit?
Answer
According to profit maximizing condition of a monopoly a firm produces that quantity at which MR = MC
MR = Marginal Revenue is the revenue firm receives by producing 1 addition unit of output
MR for Q = 3 is Total Revenue form 3 units - Total Revenue for 2 units
Total Revenue form 3 units = 7*3 = 21
Total Revenue form 2 units = 2*8 = 16
Hence MR for Q = 3 = 21 - 16 = 5
and MC for Q = 3 is 5
Hence MR = MC for Q = 3
Hence Firm should produce 3 units and Charge Price = 7
Given the following information for a monopoly firm: Demand: P = 64-4(Q) Marginal revenue: MR = 64 - 8(Q) Marginal cost: MC = 2(0)+10 Average total cost at equilibrium is 30 1.
