Macrosoft, a profit maximizing software provider, has a fully enforceable patent on word processing software. They can produce software with no fixed costs and with a constant MC of $20 / software package. The market for word processing software is characterized by the demand curve: QD = 60 - P Macrosoft thus faces the following marginal revenue schedule: MR = 60 – 2Q b. The newly elected mayor convenes his Council of Economic Advisors and hears the following testimony: Professor...

The table below depicts the prices and total costs a local used-book store faces. The bookstore competes with a number of similar stores, but it capitalizes on its location and the word-of-mouth reputation of the coffee it serves to its customers. Calculate the store's total revenue, total profit, marginal revenue, and marginal cost at each level of output, beginning with the first unit (Enter all...

Willy's widgets, a monopoly, faces the following demand schedule (sales of widgets per month): Price $20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 Quantity 40 35 30 25 20 15 10 5 0 Calculate marginal revenue over each interval in the schedule (for example, between Q = 40 and Q=35). Recall that the revenue is the added revenue from an additional unit of production/sales and assume MR is constant within each interval. If marginal cost is constant at $20...

Short-Run Firm Supply. Florida is the biggest sugar-producing state, but Michigan and Minnesota are home to thousands of sugar beet growers. Sugar prices in the United States average about 20¢ per pound, or more than double the worldwide average of less than 10¢ per pound given import quotas that restrict imports to about 15 percent of the U.S. market. Still, the industry is perfectly competitive for U.S. growers who take the market price of 20¢ as fixed. Thus, P =...

22. 3D printers are a new technology. Basically, the user simply pours powder into the machine, then the software will tell the machine what to produce. Some 3D printers can make simple things like small food containers, while the more sophisticated ones can even make human artificial ears and hearts! Question: Once these 3D printers become so common that almost everyone will own one (perhaps 15 years from now), then which cost factor(s) listed below should go down? Labor costs...
