the quLILY suppuu DJ tive firms. 2.3 Problem 3 A monopolist operates in a market with inverse demand P = 20 - 20. so that marginal revenue is MR = 20 - 40. The monopolist's marginal costs are MC = 5+Q. Find the profit maximizing quantity of output and price for this monopolist.
Assume a monopolist faces a market demand curve P = 240 – 1⁄2Q and has the short-run total cost function C = Q2. a. What is the profit-maximizing level of output and price? b. What are profits? c. What would price and output be if the firm priced at the socially efficient (competitive) level? d. What is the magnitude of the deadweight loss caused by monopoly pricing?
A monopolist faces inverse market demand of P = 140- TC(Q) = 20° + 10Q + 200. and has Total Cost given by (20 points) Find this monopolist's profit maximizing output level. Find this monopolist's profit maximizing price How much profit is this monopolist earning?
1. Consider a monopolist having market demand given by p = 50 - Q, and TC = 60Q - 3/2 x Q^2 which gives MC = 60 - 3Q. (c) Suppose now that the demand for the monopolist is q = 100/p and marginal cost is 2. What is the profit-maximizing price and output?
1. Assume that a monopolist has TC(Q) = 6Q and the market demand is P(Q) = 50 – 20. (a) What is the firm's marginal cost? (b) What is the profit-maximizing price and quantity (P*, Q*)? (c) What is the total revenue at (P*, Q*)? (d) What is the total cost at (P*, Q*)? (e)What is the profit at (P*, Q*)? (f) What is the consumer surplus at (P*, Q*)? (g) What is the deadweight loss at (P*, Q*)?
You are a monopolist in a market with an inverse demand curve of: P=10-Q. Your marginal revenue is: MR(Q)=10-2Q. Your cost function is: C(Q)=2Q, and your marginal cost of production is: MC(Q)=2. a) Solve for your profit- maximizing level of output, Q*, and the market price, P*. b) How much profit do you earn?
Part E-H Assume a profit-maximizing monopolist faces a market demand given by P = (12,000 – 90Q)/100 and long run total and marginal cost given by LRTC = 5Q + Q2 + 40 (Note: The answer to this question must be hand-written.): a) Find the equation of the marginal revenue curve corresponding to the market demand curve. b) Find the equation for the marginal cost function. c) Find the profit-maximizing quantity of output for the monopoly and the price the...
