A monopolist faces a market demand curve given by
A monopolist faces a market demand curve given by Q=70-P a. If the monopolist can produce at constant average and marginal costs ofAC-MC-6, what output level will the monopolist choose to maximize profits? What is the price at this output level? What are the monopolist's profits? b. Assume instead that the monopolist has a cost structure where total costs are described by C(Q) = 0.25Q2 - 5Q + 300. With the monopolist facing the same market demand and marginal revenue, what price-quantity combination will be chosen now...
A monopolist faces a demand curve P = 210 - 3Q and faces a constant marginal cost MC = 15.
A monopolist faces a demand curve P = 210 - 3Q and faces a constant marginal cost MC = 15. a) Calculate the profit-maximizing monopoly quantity and compute the monopolist's total revenue at the optimal price. d) Suppose that this monopoly opens for competition and the market becomes perfectly competitive. The firms face constant marginal cost MC = 15. Find the long-run perfectly competitive industry price and quantity.

1. A monopolist faces demand given by P=18-0.50(MR-18-Q) and produces with a constant marginal cost of $10. Assume that there are no fixed costs. i. Solve for the profit-maximizing quantity and price. What is the firm's profit? ii. If this was a competitive market, what would the equilibrium price and quantity be? iii. Graph D, MR, and MC curves for the monopolist. Show the area that represents the social gain if the monopolist was forced to produce and price at...
A monopolist faces a demand curve given by P = 200-10Q

Question 2 (7 marks) A monopolist faces the demand for its product: p = a - bQ. The monopolist has a marginal cost given by c and a fixed cost given by F. Answer the following questions, while showing all of your derivation steps. Just providing final answer does not warrant any mark. 2-a) Assume that F is sufficiently small such that the monopolist produces a strictly positive level of output. What are the profit-maximizing price and quantity? (3 marks)...

A monopolist who sells toys faces the following demand: P(y)=100-2y. The total cost function of the monopolist is given by: c(y)=20y+10y2 . a) Find the price and quantity that maximizes the monopolist’s profit. Also calculate the profit. [3+3] b) If the monopolist can do a perfect price discrimination, then find the consumer and producer surplus.
