Imagine that you ale managing a small firm and thinking about entering the market of a monopolist. The monopolist is currently charging a high price, and you have calculated that you can make a nice profit charging 10 less than the monopolist. Before you go ahead and challenge the monopolist, what possibility should you consider for how the monopolist might react?

E3 Let’s assume a monopolist has the following inverse demand curve:p = 248 −3qand the following cost curve:T C = 8q + q^2(a) Calculate the marginal revenue and marginal cost for this firm.(b) Let’s assume the firm chose to operate in a perfectly competitive market. If that was true,what is the equilibrium price and quantity?(c) Graph the demand curve, marginal revenue, and marginal cost for the perfectly competitivemarket. Show the optimal quantity and price on the graph.(d) Calculate the consumer surplus, producer surplus, and deadweight loss in this market.(e) Now, let’s assume the firm chose to operate as a monopolist. If that was true, what is theequilibrium price and quantity?(f) Graph the demand curve, marginal revenue, and marginal cost for the monopolist market.Show the optimal quantity and price on the graph.(g) Calculate the consumer surplus, producer surplus, and deadweight loss in this market.
Answer the attached question
Please refer to the graph attached. The graph shows the Demand, Marginal Revenue, and Marginal Cost curves for a monopolist. (a) What would be the monopolist profit maximizing price and quantity? (b) If market was perfectly competitive what would be the equilibrium price and quantity? (c)Which area shows the total surplus under perfect competition?
