2. Suppose a monopoly firm faces inverse market demand curve p a - bQ. Its average total cost (ACc) and marginal cost (MC) both equal c where c >0. Assume that a>0, a> c, and b> 0. Assume that the firm maximizes its profit. Depict and identify the following five concepts graphically (a) (i)the firm's profit-maximizing output QM (ii) the corresponding price PM, (ii) the socially optimal output Q* (iv) the firm's supernormal profit and (v) the deadweight loss. (b)...

Suppose that the United States currently both produces kumquats and imports them. The U.S. government then decides to restrict international trade in kumquats by imposing a quota that allows imports of only six million pounds of kumquats into the United States each year. The figure to the right shows the results of imposing the quota. Fill in the following table (enter all numeric responses rounded to the nearest penny for prices and as whole numbers for quantities). .Su.s With Without...
Suppose you have been tasked with regulating a single monopoly firm that sells 50-pound bags of concrete. The firm has fixed costs of $30 million per year and a variable cost of $2 per bag no matter how many bags are produced nstructions: Enter your answers as whole numbers. In part e, round your answer to 2 decimal places. a. If this firm kept on increasing its output level, would ATC per bag ever increase? Yes Is this a decreasing-cost...

summarizr the followung info and write them in your own words and break them into different key points. 6.5 Metering Chamber: 6.5.1 The minimum size of the metering box is governed by the metering area required to obtain a representative test area for the specimen (see 7.2) and for maintenance of reasonable test accuracy. For example, for specimens incorporating air spaces or stud spaces, the metering area shall span an integral number of spaces (see 5.5). The depth of...

6.1 Introduction—The design of a successful hot box appa- ratus is influenced by many factors. Before beginning the design of an apparatus meeting this standard, the designer shall review the discussion on the limitations and accuracy, Section 13, discussions of the energy flows in a hot box, Annex A2, the metering box wall loss flow, Annex A3, and flanking loss, Annex...
