1. Using a graph, show a situation in which a monopolist is incurring short-run losses. Explain how this is possible. 2. Julee has estimated the demand and marginal revenue for her product. They are P = 100 - 2Q (quantity) and MR = 100 - 4Q, respectively. She also experiences constant marginal cost of $16. a. Does Julee have any market power? How can you tell? b. What is Julee’s profit-maximizing quantity? c. What price should Julee charge at that profit-maximizing quantity? 3. Explain a situation in which, when holding costs constant, a monopolist that was earning economic profits in the past can later incur an economic loss.
The demand (downward sloping line) and marginal cost (upward sloping curve) of a monopolist are shown. Use the segment tool to add a marginal revenue curve to the graph. Then, use the point tool to indicate the monopolists profit maximizing price/quantity combination. Segment Point A Undo - Redo x Reset 10 10 quantity Price

2) The Epson Company is a monopolist in the market and faces the demand curve shown in the figure below. The firm's marginal cost curve is MC= 100 +2Q. a. What is the firm's profit-maximizing output and price? Price ($/unit) 400 0 D 200 Quantity of printers (thousand) b. If the firm's demand changes to P = 300 - Q while its marginal cost curve remains the same, what is the firm's profit-maximizing level of output and price? How does this compare to your answer for (a)? c. Draw a diagram showing these two outcomes. Holding marginal cost equal, how does the shape of the demand curve affect the firm's ability to charge a high price? (bonus question 5 points)
