A natural monopolist faces the following demand curve: P = 409 - 2Q, its total cost is given by: TC = 12800 + 9Q (marginal cost is the slope of total cost). (a) If the government regulates the monopolist to charge a socially optimal price, what price will it charge and how many units will it sell? How much are the profit, consumer surplus and producer surplus? (b) If it is not a regulated monopolist, what is its profit maximizing...

Suppose that market demand for a good is given by
QD(P) = 10−P. The total cost of production is TC(Q) =
2Q2. Determine quantity QM and price
PM that a monopolist will choose in this market.
Calculate consumer surplus (CS), producer surplus (PS), and the
deadweight loss (DWL) resulting from the monopoly. Graphical
Solution would suffice!

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...

7. A monopolist in the market for widgets is facing a demand curve P= 60 - Q. The marginal cost of producing Q units is equal to $Q. (a) Calculate the monopolist's profit maximizing price and quantity. Calculate producer, consumer, and total surplus, and deadweight loss. (b) The government wants to impose a price ceiling that will maximize the total surplus in the market. What price ceiling should the government set? What would be the new values of consumer and...

A monopolist’s inverse demand is P=500-2Q, the total cost function is TC=50Q2 + 1000Q and Marginal cost is MC=100Q+100, where Q is thousands of units. a). what price would the monopolist charge to maximize profits and how many units will the monopolist sell? (hint, recall that the slope of the MARGINAL Revenue is twice as steep as the inverse demand curve. b). at the profit-maximizing price, how much profit would the monopolist earn? c). find consumer surplus and Producer surplus...
