Monopoly – Suppose firm A is the only firm in the market of providing space tours. The inverse market demand for space tours is described by P = 1,500 – 50Q. The cost function of firm A providing space tours is C = 500 + 25Q². Find the quantity that will maximize firm A's profit, the associated market price and firm A's (maximized) profit.
