1. (25 points) Suppose that a monopolist faces the inverse demand curve: P 100-Q and produces goods at a marginal cost of $5. Finally assume that the firm incurs no fixed costs A. Suppose the monopolist lowers the price from $90 to $89. Explain why the firm's marginal revenue is less than the price of the 11th unit sold, $89 (do not answer this question by providing a mathematical equation). B. At what price will the monopolist maximize its profit?...

1. Suppose that a single-price monopolist faces the demand function P 100 Q where I is average weekly household income, and that the firm's marginal cost function is given by MC(Q) 2Q. The firm has no fixed costs. = (a) If the average weekly household income is $600, find the firm's marginal revenue function. (b) What is the firm's profit-maximizing quantity of output? At what price will the firm sell that output? What will the firm's marginal cost be? (c)...

Practice Question 4. The inverse demand curve a monopoly faces is p = 30 – Q. The firm's total cost function is C(Q) = 0.5Q² and thus marginal cost function is MC(Q) = Q. (a) Determine the monopoly quantity, price and profit, and calculate the CS, PS and social welfare under the monopoly. (b) Determine the socially optimal outcome and calculate the CS, PS and social welfare under the social optimum. (c) Calculate the deadweight loss due to the monopolist...
A monopolist faces a demand curve P = 210 - 3Q and faces a constant marginal cost MC = 15.
A monopolist faces a demand curve P = 210 - 3Q and faces a constant marginal cost MC = 15. a) Calculate the profit-maximizing monopoly quantity and compute the monopolist's total revenue at the optimal price. d) Suppose that this monopoly opens for competition and the market becomes perfectly competitive. The firms face constant marginal cost MC = 15. Find the long-run perfectly competitive industry price and quantity.

5. A monopolist faces a demand curve P = 60 – 2Q and initially faces a constant marginal cost MC = 4. (a) Calculate the profit-maximizing monopoly quantity and price, and compute the monopolist's total rev- enue and profits at the optimal price. (b) Suppose that the monopolist's marginal cost in- creases to MC = 8. Verify that the monopolist's total revenue goes down. (c) Suppose that all firms in a perfectly competitive equilibrium had a constant marginal cost MC...

monopolist is a price maker. he will determine the quantity of output that will maximize revenue. the monopolistic faces a downward sloping demand curve because he can sell more if he lowers the price. the profit maximizing price and output is where marginal revenue equals marginal cost, then it is extended to the market demand curve to determine what market price corresponds to that quantity. the profit maximization price is c and quantity is q.
