Graphically show a monopoly firm that currently sells 250 units of output at a price of $60/unit, where the marginal revenue of the 250th unit is $40, the marginal cost of the 250th unit is $50, and the average total cost at 250 units is $60. [Hint: Based on the information given, is the quantity you’re asked to show the profit-maximizing quantity? Think about what has to be true for profit-maximization.] Based on the graph and assuming the firm attempts to profit maximize (and succeeds), what would happen to price, quantity, MR, MC, and ATC? (rise, fall, or stay the same?)
The table below shows cost data for producing different amounts of cleaning products. Suppose this market is a monopoly.

Refer to the graph below: Price and cost (dollars) 0 $ MR MC ATC AVC D 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 Quantity The figure shows the demand and cost curves facing a monopoly in the short run. The profit-maximizing level of output is...
Price and cost (dollars per unit) PI P2 P3 0 MR 외 Q2 Q3 Quantity (units per hour) Which of the following is true? In the above figure, if the market is S=MC a monopoly, output will be Q1 and price will be P3. perfect competition, output will be Q2 and price will be P2. perfect competition, output will be Q3 and price will be P3. a monopoly, output will be Q3 and price will be P3.
A firm is a natural monopoly. Its marginal cost curve is flat, and its average cost curve is downward sloping (because it has a fixed cost). The firm can perfectly price discriminate. Use a graph to show how much the monopoly produces, Q*. Show graphically and mathematically that a monopoly might shut down if it can only set a single price but operate if it can perfectly price discriminate.
Assume someone organizes all farms in the nation into a single-price monopoly. As a result, the amount of food produced increases remains constant decreases
Some say a monopoly can charge whatever price it wants. This is not true, explain why? What restricts a monopoly? (government regulation is not the answer here).
The inverse demand curve a monopoly faces is p = 130 - Q. The firm's cost curve is C(Q) = 10 +5Q. What is the profit-maximizing solution? The profit-maximizing quantity is 62.5. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) The profit-maximizing price is $ 67.5. (round your answer to two decimal places.) What is the firm's economic profit? The firm earns a profit of $. (round your answer to two decimal places.)
Suppose a monopoly is producing at its profit-maximising (loss-minimizing) quantity, and the price corresponding to this quantity is below average total cost but above average variable cost. The monopoly will shut down in the short run but return to production in the long run shut down in the short run and exit the market in the long run keep producing both in the short run and in the long run keep producing in the short run but exit the market in the long run None of the above.

Price (dollars per unit) 600 400 AC = MC De mand Marginal revenue 200 400 Computers (units per day) The graph above shows the average cost, marginal cost, demand, and marginal revenue curves for selling computers in a given market. The computer industry is currently perfectly competitive and in equilibrium. Suppose all firms in the industry are taken over by a single firm that establishes a monopoly in the market. Assuming the monopoly maximizes profit, Select one: there will be no effect on the price of computers. Ob. the price of computers will increase from $400 to $600, but there will be no change in quantity demanded. Oc. the price of computers will be set equal to the marginal cost of computers. O d the price of computers will increase from $400 to $600, and the quantity demanded will fall from 400 to 200 per day.
