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....

3. Consumer Surplus and Producer Surplus from Market Exchange Consider the Zambian market for oranges. The following graph shows the domestic demand and domestic supply curves for oranges in Zambia. Suppose Zambia's government currently does not allow the international trade in oranges. Use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price of a ton of oranges and the equilibrium quantity of oranges in Zambia in the absence of international trade. Then, use the green point (triangle symbol) to...
