Draw a graph with linear demand and marginal curves and a horizontal MC curve. Find the monopolist’s profit-maximizing price (P*) and output (Q*). Now change the demand curve by rotating it clockwise (making it steeper) through the point (Q*, P*). What is the new profit-maximizing price and quantity? Is price higher or lower? Relate your answer to the fact that a monopolist does not have a supply curve
