what is the profit from perfect price discrimination?
The market demand for a monopoly is given by P = 90 – 2Q, where Q is the number of the product demanded at price P. The total cost function is given by TC = 90 + 20Q +0.5Q2. a) If the firm is a single-price monopoly, what are the equilibrium quantity and price? What are the resultant consumer surplus, producer surplus and social welfare? b) If the government forced the firm to behave as if it were a perfect competitor, what are the equilibrium quantity and price? What are the resultant consumer surplus, producer surplus and social welfare? c) How much does social welfare increase when the firm moves from monopoly to competition?
Suppose a monopoly firm’s total cost of production TC = f + c•Q where f > 0 and c > 0. Is this firm a “natural monopoly”? Answer ‘Yes” or “No” based on your explanation of the meaning of a “natural monopoly.”
You are the manager of a monopoly, and your demand and cost functions are given by P = 300 – 3Q and C(Q) = 1,500 + 2Q2, respectively. What price-quantity combination maximizes your firm’s profits? Calculate the maximum profits. Is demand elastic, inelastic, or unit elastic at the profit-maximizing price-quantity combination? What price-quantity combination maximizes revenue? Calculate the maximum revenues? Is demand elastic, inelastic, or unit elastic at the revenue-maximizing price-quantity combination?

Show that if a firm is a natural monopoly, a government policy that forces marginal cost pricing will result in losses for the firm.

This problem is about a monopoly. Let a monopolist's inverse demand function be given by p = 100 – 0.0002q which generates a marginal revenue function of MR = 100 – 0.0004q Let Total Cost be given by TC = 100 + 28q – 0.005q? + 0.0000011q3 Which has marginal cost of MC = 28 – 0.01q + 0.0000031q? This monopolist maximizes profit at q* = 6610.33 (to the nearest penny). %3D For this problem find the following: ) Show that the profit maximizing output level is 6610.33 (to the nearest penny) ) Find the price at the profit maximizing output level. ) The cost per unit at the profit maximizing output level. ) Profit per unit at the profit maximizing output level. ) The total profit (or loss) at the profit maximizing output level.
