2)Suppose Fantastic Films charges a single price for all tickets. Identify the monopoly outcome (PM, QM). Calculate the firm's profit maximizing price $ , output tickets, and economic profit $ .
3)
Compute consumer surplus, producer surplus, and deadweight loss.
Consumer surplus
Producer surplus
Deadweight loss
4)
If the movie theater industry were perfectly competitive, how many tickets would be sold and what would be the price of each ticket? [competitive outcome, (Pcomp, Qcomp)]
Competitive price: $ ["$13 per ticket", "$5 per ticket", "$12 per ticket", "$10 per ticket", "$6 per ticket"] per ticket
Competitive output: ["700 tickets", "800 tickets", "350 tickets", "400 tickets", "750 tickets"] tickets

CENGAGE | MINDTAP Aplia Homework: Monopoly 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 curves (S - MC) in the market for hot dogs....

Monopoly - End of Chapter Problem 6. Consider the accompanying demand schedule for diamonds. The marginal cost of producing diamonds is constant at $100. There is no fixed cost. Price of Quantity of diamonds diamond demanded $500 0 400 300 2 200 100 4 0 1 زرا 5 a. If De Beers charges $300 for a diamond, calculate total consumer surplus by summing individual consumer surpluses. How large is producer surplus? Consumer surplus: $ Producer surplus: $ Suppose that upstart...

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...
Sketch a natural monopoly firm under marginal cost pricing regulation. Label its price, quantity, and profit. What is the deadweight loss (loss in consumer and producer surplus) if regulation is effective?
A small town is served by many competing supermarkets, which all have the same constant marginal cost. Use the black point (plus symbol) to show the competitive price and quantity in this market. Then use the green area (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing consumer surplus in the market for groceries, and use the purple area (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing producer surplus. Now suppose that the independent supermarkets combine into one chain. Use the black point...
Please Type Answer George has a monopoly on burrito sales in a small town in Kansas. The burritos cost him a constant $5 each to produce. He faces following demand schedule for his product: Price Quantity Demanded $30 0 $25 1 $20 2 $15 3 $10 4 $5 5 $0 6 Under normal monopoly conditions, how many burritos should he produce, what price should he charge, and how much profit can he expect to make? Draw a graph under these...
I need help with B and C Suppose that the Texas Ski Company has a monopoly on skiing in Texas due to a special technology that allows it to make snow at all temperatures. Demand is linear (a straight line that is downward sloping). At a price of zero, 1,000 lift tickets are demanded. When the price reaches $200, the quantity of lift tickets demanded drops to zero. The marginal revenue curve intersects the vertical axis at $200, and intersects...
