3. (Figure: Price-Discriminating Monopolist 2) The perfectly price-discriminating monopolist in this diagram will produce units of output, and a single price monopolist would produce units of output. Consumer surplus under a perfectly price discriminating monopolist is dollars less than under a single-price monopolist. While, perfect price discrimination results in reduced consumer surplus, it (increases/decreases) producer surplus and ultimately results in deadweight loss that is (less than/equal to greater than the amount of deadweight loss found in a perfectly competitive market....
