Scenario 11.1 Maui Macadamia Inc. has a monopoly in the macadamia nut industry. The demand curve, marginal revenue and marginal cost curve for macadamia nuts are given as follows: P = 360 - 4Q; MR = 360 - 8Q; MC = 4Q 1. What level of output maximizes the sum of consumer surplus and producer surplus? 2. What is the profit-maximizing level of output? 3. At the profit-maximizing level of output, what is the level of consumer surplus? 4. At...

In some cities, Uber has a monopoly on ride-sharing services. In one town, the demand curve on weekdays is given by the following equation: P = 50 - 1Q. However, during weekend nights, or surge hours, the demand for rides increases dramatically and the new demand curve is: P = 100 - 1Q. Assume that marginal cost is initially 0. What is the profit maximizing price during weekdays and surge hours? (Round answers to 2 decimal places as needed.) The...
Suppose a profit-maximizing monopolist has total cost and marginal cost as follow
Suppose a profit-maximizing monopolist has total cost and marginal cost as follow. TC =8Q + 10 and MC = 8. It faces the demand curve P=20-1/5Q. What is the equilibrium price and output? What is the total profit? Calculate the consumer surplus, producer surplus, and deadweight loss if the firm acts as a monopolist. Illustrate your answer with a diagram. Calculate the consumer surplus, producer surplus, and deadweight loss if the firm acts as a perfectly price-discriminated monopolist. Illustrate your answer with a diagram.

Suppose a monopolist faces the following demand curve: P = 440 – 7Q. The long run marginal cost of production is constant and equal to $20, and there are no fixed costs. A) What is the monopolist’s profit maximizing level of output? B) What price will the profit maximizing monopolist produce? C) How much profit will the monopolist make if she maximizes her profit? D) What would be the value of consumer surplus if the market were perfectly competitive? E)...

Problem 3: A market with a monopoly producer has inverse demand P = 120 - 2Q (which gives marginal revenue MR = 120 - 4Q). The monopolist has marginal costs are MCQ) = 4Q and no fixed costs. a) What is the monopolist's producer surplus when it charges the profit maximizing uniform price. b) What is the deadweight loss due to monopoly in this market? c) What would the monopolist's producer surplus be if it could engage in first degree...

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.

If a monopoly faces an inverse demand curve of p=330-Q, has a constant marginal and average cost of $90, and can perfectly price discriminate, what is its profit? What are the consumer surplus, welfare, and deadweight loss? How would these results change if the firm were a single price monopoly? Profit from perfect price discrimination (T) is S .
