The following graph illustrates the demand curve facing a single-price monopolist. Suppose the monopolist initially sells...
2. The demand curve facing a monopoly firm Aa Aa Louie's Fire Engines is the sole seller of fire engines in the fictional country of Pyrotania. Initially, Loule produces 360 fire engines, but Louie has decided to increase production from 360 to 480 fire engines. The following graph shows the demand curve he faces. As you can see, to sell the additional engines, Louie must lower his price from $50,000 to $40,000. Note that while Loule gains revenue from one...
BYOB is a monopolist in beer production and distribution in the imaginary economy of Hopsville. Suppose that BYOB cannot price discriminate; that is, it sells its beer at the same price per can to all customers. The following graph shows the marginal cost (MC), marginal revenue (MR), average total cost (ATC), and demand (D) for beer in this market. Place the black point (plus symbol) on the graph to indicate the profit-maximizing price and quantity for BYOB. If BYOB is making...

Place the black point (plus symbol) on the following graph to indicate the profit-maximizing price and quantity for BYOB. If BYOB is making a profit, use the green rectangle (triangle symbols) to shade in the area representing its profit. On the other hand, if BYOB is suffering a loss, use the purple rectangle (diamond symbols) to shade in the area representing the loss. Suppose that BYOB charges $2.00 per can. Your friend Jake says that since BYOB is a monopoly with...
The following graph shows the marginal cost (MC), marginal revenue (MR), average total cost (ATC), and demand (D) for a monopolist. Suppose that this monopolist cannot price discriminate. Place the grey point (starymbol) on the graph to indicate the profit-maximizing price and quantity for this monopolist. If the monopolist is making a profitne the green rectangle (triungle symbols) to shade in the area representing its profit. On the other hand, if the monopolist is suffering a loss use the purple...

Consider the market for luxury yachts depicted on the following graph. Determine the equilibrium price and quantity of luxury yachts in the absence of a tax. Using the green triangle (triangle symbols), shade the area representing total consumer surplus (CS) at the equilibrium price. Next, use the purple triangle (diamond symbols) to shade the area on the following graph representing total producer surplus (PS) at the equilibrium price. PRICE (Thousands of dollars per yacht! Supply 0 10 20 Demand 30...
