Suppose a monopoly's price elasticity of demand equals-5 and the marginal cost of production equals $500.00. The profit-maximizing price is $ 625 (Enter a numeric response using a real number rounded to two decimal places.) What will be the firm's markup? When maximizing profit, the monopoly's markup is______percent. (Round your response to the nearest percent.)

The market demand for a good is P = 90 - Q. The good can be produced at a constant cost of $10. How much deadweight loss is created if the market is served by a monopolist as opposed to a competitive market?Enter as a value.
In British Columbia, Canada a company named after Tim Hortons runs a monopoly on a sweet snack called Timbits! Suppose the demand for Timbits is P=90-Q and the cost function is C-Q How much would the consumer surplus, producer surplus and DWL be in case Tim Hortons a single-price monopoly? Suppose Tim Hortons could install a device in its premises that could immediately 11) predict the willingness to pay of every unsuspecting customer entering its franchise premises and charge them that corresponding amount! Additionally, suppose they could also stop resale of products, and thus become a first degree price discriminatıng monopoly. How much would the consumer surplus, producer surplus and DWL be in this case?
Exhibit 9-7 Monopolist (dollars) 10 8 6 0 Quantity earn an hourly profit of $240. MR As shown in Exhibit 9-7, in the short run, the monopoly will: earn an hourly profit of $80. MC break even (i.e., earn zero economic profit). suffer an hourly loss of $160.

A monopolist produces a certain good. The cost c for producing this good is given by c = 20q, whereq is the quantity produced. The (inverse) demand function for this product is given by p = 30 − 0.01q,where p is the price per unit of the product. We assume that the full produced quantity is sold. Thegovernment taxes the sales of the good and would like to maximize the received tax T .Suppose in first instance that the government introduces a tax of 4 monetary units per unit of theproduct sold. We determine how much the government then receives.
Suppose a monopolist sells a product to faculty members and students on the campus. If the firm sets a single price, the monopolist produces 5000 units and sell them at the price of $3 per unit. At this price, the price elasticity of demand for faculty member is -2.5. And the price elasticity of demand for students is -1.5. The monopolist is considering whether she should set different prices for the faculty members and students and asks for your advice. The monopolist is thinking about charging faculty members a 10% higher price. The quantity demanded by the faculty members would fall by %. The monopolist is thinking about charging students a 10% higher price. The quantity demanded by the students would fall by %. Who should the monopolist charge more? mention faculty and students and how much
Assume inverse demand function for game console in an imaginary country is P=1200-4Q and the total cost function is TC=400+4Q². Government put $120 of specific tax on production. a. If the market is competitive what is the incidence of tax on consumer? b. If the market is monopolist what is the incidence of tax on consumer?
