Monopoly outcome versus competition outcomeConsider the weekly market for gyros in a popular neighborhood close to campus. Suppose this market is operating in long-run competitiveequilibrium with many gyro vendors in the neighborhood, each offering basically the same gyros. Due to the structure of the market, the vendors actas price takers and each individual vendor has no market power.The following graph displays the supply (SMC) and demand (D) curves in the weekly market for gyros.Place the black point (plus symbol) on the graph to indicate the market price and quantity that will result from competition.PRICE (Dollars per gyro)5.04.54.03.53.02.5Competitive Market2.0S=MC1.51.00.5D00 50100150 200 250 300 350 400450500QUANTITY (Gyros)PC Outcome?Now assume that one of the gyro vendors successfully petitions the neighborhood development board to obtain exclusive rights to sell gyros in theneighborhood. This firm buys up all the rest of the gyro food trucks in the area and begins to operate as a monopoly. Assume that this change doesnot affect demand and that the marginal cost curve of the new monopoly corresponds exactly to the supply curve from the previous graph. Thefollowing graph reflects this new set of assumptions, and shows the demand (D), marginal revenue (MR), and marginal cost (MC) curves for themonopoly vendor.

A monopoly is a market structure when there is only one seller present. Due to the lack of a close…

Show that a monopoly will not necessarily lower its price by the same percentage as its constant marginal cost drops: 1.) Use the point drawing tool to indicate the initial equilibrium price and quantity. Label this point 'E'. 2.) Use the line drawing tool to show a 50 percent decrease in marginal cost. Label this line 'MC₁'. 3.) Use the point drawing tool to indicate the new equilibrium price and quantity. Label this point 'E,'. Carefully follow the instructions above, and only draw the required objects. What is the percentage change in the price given a 50 percent decrease in marginal cost? The price decreased by percent.
