A.Draw a graph showing the demand, marginal revenue, and marginal cost curves for a typical monopolist, indicating the profit-maximizing price and level of output. Then, identify the competitive price and level of output.
B.Making specific reference to your graph for Part A, identify the welfare costs of monopoly. Specifically, show how consumer and producer surplus are different under monopoly vs. competition, as well as any deadweight loss.

Draw the graph for a monopoly with demand, marginal revenue, and marginal cost curves. Identify the profit-maximizing output level (Qm) and price (Pm). Suppose the monopolist sells Qm units of output at the regular price and then puts the product on sale at a lower price, Ps. Show the new price and quantity.
