a. A perfectly firm is a price taker and hence it produces output where P=MC or D=MC
It charges $10
b. A competitive produces at D=MC
It produces 5 units.
c. Deadweight loss is zero because social welfare is maximized at perfectly competitive equilibrium. Both allocative and productive efficiency are achieved at P=MC.

Graph a Monopoly, make sure to include the Price, Quantity, Demand, MR, MC, ATC, and Profit Compare the price, quantity, and ATC of a monopoly with a perfectly competitive firm. Who is more efficient and why?
Monopoly Markets, I understand that a loss in social welfare is caused because a monopoly market produces a smaller output than that of a perfectly competitive market. A monopolist produces too little output at a higher price. The concept of “underproduction” has been the topic of many research studies, concluding that if markets would deviate from a perfectly competitive market structure, it may cause a lack of economic efficiency. My question is this what is the scholarly term for monopoly...

2. Use the following graph to answer the following questions: P/ MC ATC /AVC MR 20 2528 50 a. What price is charged by the monopol order to maximize profits? b. Calculate the total revenue accruing to the mo- nopolist at the profit-maximizing output. C. Calculate the total cost to the monopolist at the profit-maximizing output. d. Calculate the profit for the monopolist. e. Calculate the total variable and fixed costs of the monopolist at the profit-maximizing...
Practice Question 4. The inverse demand curve a monopoly faces is p = 30 – Q. The firm's total cost function is C(Q) = 0.5Q² and thus marginal cost function is MC(Q) = Q. (a) Determine the monopoly quantity, price and profit, and calculate the CS, PS and social welfare under the monopoly. (b) Determine the socially optimal outcome and calculate the CS, PS and social welfare under the social optimum. (c) Calculate the deadweight loss due to the monopolist...
3. Monopoly Consider a situation where a monopolist faces the following inverse market demand curve 132 - 2a p and the following cost function TС — 12g + 2q* a) Derive the marginal revenue and marginal cost functions b) What are the equilibrium price and quantity if this market behaved as if it were competitive? c) Calculate the Consumer Surplus, Producer Surplus and Welfare levels under perfect petition d) What are the equilibrium price and quantity when the monopolist produces...
Consider the local telephone company, a natural monopoly. The following graph shows the demand curve for phone services, the company's marginal revenue curve (labeled MR), its marginal cost curve (labeled MC), and its average total cost curve (labeled ATC). You can hover over the points on the graph to see their exact coordinates. PRICE, COST, MR (Dollars per month) 100 90 80 70 60 Demand 50 40 30 ATC 20 MC 10 MR 54 60 30 36 42 48 0...

5. Monopoly outcome versus competition outcome Consider the daily market for hot dogs in a small city. Suppose that this market is in long-run competitive equilibrium with many hot dog stands in the city, each one selling the same kind of hot dogs. Therefore, each vendor is a price taker and possesses no market power. The following graph shows the demand (D) and supply (S MC) curves in the market for...
