Market Power and Monopoly - End of Chapter Problem Green Machine is the only greenhouse in isolated Point Barrow, Alaska, and therefore has a monopoly on the sale of fresh flowers. The manager estimates that the elasticity of demand for flowers is -0.5. Green Machine cannot be maximizing profits because O it is operating in the inelastic portion of its demand curve, so it can increase price and still gain more revenue while lowering cost. This will increase profits. according to the Lerner index an elasticity of demand of -0.5 means Green Machine's markup is 50% higher than what it should be, so it needs to decrease price and increase sales. elasticity of demand is negative; therefore, Green Machine's total costs are higher than its total revenue, and profits are not being maximized. O its marginal revenue must be greater than its marginal cost when elasticity of demand is between 0 and -1, so profits are not being maximized and it must expand production to increase sales and lower…
