Website Profit The latest demand equation for your gaming website, www.mudbeast.net, is given by q=-100x + 1500 where q is the number of users who log on per month and x is the log-on fee you charge. Your Internet provider bills you as follows. Site maintenance fee: $50 per month High-volume access fee: $0.50 per log-on Find the monthly cost as a function of the log-on fee x.

Why does consumer surplus decline when monopolies are present?
Suppose a monopoly is producing at its profit-maximising (loss-minimizing) quantity, and the price corresponding to this quantity is below average total cost but above average variable cost. The monopoly will shut down in the short run but return to production in the long run shut down in the short run and exit the market in the long run keep producing both in the short run and in the long run keep producing in the short run but exit the market in the long run None of the above.
