Assume that a single price monopolist has a marginal cost curve given by MC=10+2Q. Further the demand curve that it faces is given by p=250-Q. Compared to a perfectly competitive industry with the same demand and cost equations, the loss in consumer surplus in this market equals: O 1600. 1800. O 1200 O 1400
