Question 13 Which of the following is true of a monopolist firm, but NOT of a monopolistically competitive firm? The firm can make strictly positive profits in the long run. The firm's marginal revenue curve is downward sloping and below the price. A profit-maximizing firm produces a quantity such that marginal revenue equals marginal cost. The firm has market power.

This profit-maximizing firm will produce Blank 1 units. What price will this profit-maximizing firm charge? $Blank 2 (Do NOT enter the '$' in your response. Enter only the whole dollar amount; do NOT enter cents.) If the industry was perfectly competitive instead of monopolistic, then market output would be Blank 3 units and market price would be $Blank 4. (Do NOT enter the '$' in your response.

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. C(x): = X Find the monthly profit as a function of x. P(x) = Determine the log-on fee you should charge (in dollars) to obtain the largest possible monthly profit. x = $ per log-on What is the largest possible monthly profit (in dollars)? $

Joyce owns a gas station and monopolizes gas sales along a remote stretch of road. In February, Joyce stayed open even though she earned negative economic profits. Draw a correctly labeled graph for Joyce’s gas station during February and show each of the following. The profit-maximizing output and price, labeled QJ and PJ The average total cost curve, labeled ATC Deadweight loss, completely shaded What must have been true for Joyce to continue operating during the month of February even though she earned negative economic profit? Assume that fixed costs for Joyce’s gas station decrease. Would Joyce’s profit-maximizing quantity increase, decrease, or stay the same in February? Explain. During the month of July, demand increases so that Joyce now earns a positive economic profit. However, she realizes her profits would have been higher if she had reduced the price of gasoline. At the quantity sold in July, was marginal revenue greater than, equal to, or less than…
