Suppose a manufacturer creates a product with MC=10. The manufacturer sells the product both domestically and abroad. There is no difference in marginal cost and all conditions necessary to practice price discrimination have been met. The manufacturer is interest in maximizing profits by charging a higher price to consumers abroad. Demand abroad (A) is characterized by the inverse demand curve P = 72 - 2Q. Demand domestically (D) is characterized by the inverse demand curve P = 40 - 3Q. What is the difference in prices between consumers abroad versus those at home ( PA- PD )?
Hint: Round your answer to the second decimal.

Consider a model of an upstream manufacturer producing a good that it sells to a downstream retailer for resale. Both the upstream manufacturer and the downstream retailer are monopolists. Inverse market demand for the final good is given by P = 100 - Q. The marginal cost for the upstream firm is 40 per unit of good produced. The retailer faces no costs other than the cost of purchasing the good from the manufacturer. b) Now, suppose that the upstream...

Suppose the inverse demand curve for a commodity in a perfectly competitive market takes the functional form: P (Q) = -.1Q + 10. Additionally, the firm’s marginal cost (MC) takes the following functional form: MC = 4 + 2Q. Recalling that a perfectly competitive firm is a price-taker in the market and its profit-maximizing output level (Qe) is always found by equating its price with its marginal cost: P = MC. Given all this, how much output (Qe) should the...

Hints: In problem 11.7 the marginal cost is 20. For both problems it will be useful to know that for a linear demand curve, written with price as a function of quantity (P=0-bQ) marginal revenue is MR=a-2bQ. For problem 12.20, for some steps you will have to re-arrange the demand so to give price as a function of quantity rather than quantity as a function of price. Part a of 12.20 is the same as what we did in the...
