You are the manager of a monopoly. Your analytics department estimates that a typical consumer's inverse demand function for your firm's product is P = 350-20Q, and your cost function is C(Q) = 70Q. a. Determine the optimal two - part pricing strategy. Per-unit fee: $ Fixed fee: $ b. How much additional profit do you earn using a two-part pricing strategy compared with charging this consumer a per- unit price? $
Consider the single seller of diamonds where the demand curve and the marginal revenue curve are described as follows: P = 10,000 – Q and MR = 10,000 – 2Q. The quantity Q refers to the number of diamonds sold each week. The marginal cost of producing diamonds is constant at $4,000 each. (MC=2000). You do not need to draw a graph. . a. Calculate the profit-maximizing number of diamonds sold each week by this monopolist Show your work. Q = ___________. b. Calculate the price that the monopolist will charge for each diamond sold. P =_________. c. Finally, calculate the total profit earned by this monopolist if Total Costs = 1,000,000+4,000Q. Show your work!

Conditions for price discrimination Price discrimination is the practice of selling the same good at more than one price when the price differences are not justified by cost differences. Evaluate the following statement: "Price discrimination is not possible when a good is sold in a perfectly competitive market." False, because perfectly competitive firms do not profit - maximize by setting marginal revenue equal to marginal cost True, because perfectly competitive firms have no market power False, because perfectly competitive firms have market power None of these choices Examples of price discrimination Cho and Ginny are debating the use of coupons by grocery stores. Cho says, "The use of coupons in grocery stores represents a means of price discrimination. It's pure and simple. Coupons do reduce the price of groceries, but mostly to people who are less likely to buy at the full price." By contrast, Ginny contends, "Coupons do not constitute price discrimination. They simply…
In terms of perfect first-degree price discrimination, could you show that the firm's price of the last unit sold would equal the marginal cost of producing that unit and that the firm would produce the perfectly competitive level of output? If you can use a graph, that would help me understand thank you.
In India, Cisco’s market share of the Ethernet switch and router market is approximately 67 percent. Juniper and HP each have market shares of about 6.5 percent, and several other firms have somewhat smaller market shares. Draw a diagram showing the equilibrium in this dominant firm market. Identify the equilibrium price and the equilibrium quantity produced by the dominant firm and the competitive fringe firms. Illustrate what happens to the equilibrium price and the equilibrium quantity produced by the dominant firm and the competitive fringe firms if additional fringe firms enter the market
how do you solve for profit to get optimal level for both firms and optimal selling price?
Identify whether each statement is true or false. Market power is the ability of a firm to charge a price greater than marginal cost Most markets are perfectively competitive Charging a price greater than marginal cost leads to maximum economic efficiency In reality, few markets are perfectively competitive

Given the information in the table, if a movie theater does not price discriminate, then it charges either the highest price the college students are willing to pay or the one that the senior citizens are willing to pay. The theater would practice price discrimination by charging college students $16 and senior citizens $8. Assume the firm incurs no fixed costs and the marginal cost of production is zero. How does total surplus change if the movie theater goes from charging a single price to perfectly price discriminating? Profit from 15 College Profit from 10 Senior Total Students $120 $240 $240 Citizens Profit $200 Uniform, $8 Uniform, $16 Price Discrimination $80 $80 $320 The change in total surplus from practicing perfect price discrimination instead of charging a single price is s (Enter your response rounded to the nearest whole number)

The market demand function for birthday cards in Greenwich Village is: P = 100 − 10Q. The total cost function for producing birthday cards is: C= 60 + 20q. Suppose that a firm can perfectly price discriminate (i.e. conduct first-degree price discrimination). How much will its profits be? - How would I start this question?
