Action No Recycling Recycling Chemical Lab (Dollars) 2,400 2,100 Profit Water Park (Dollars) 1,100 1,900 Total (Dollars) Total economic profit is highest when the recycling production method is When the chemical lab uses the recycling method, the water park earns $1,900 - $1,100 = $800 more per week than it does with no recycling. Therefore, the water park should be willing to pay up to $800 per week for the chemical lab to recycle water. However, the recycling method decreases the chemical lab's economic profit by $2,400 - $2,100 = $300 per week. Therefore, the chemical lab should be willing to use the recycling method if it is compensated with at least $300 per week. Suppose the water park has the property rights to the lake. That is, the water park has the right to a clean (unpolluted) lake. In this case, assuming the two firms can bargain at no cost, the chemical lab will the recycling method and will pay the water park per week. Now, suppose the chemical lab has the property…

DN1(a) Amtrak has a monopoly on rail travel in the U.S. It uses price discrimination to offer a discounted price for adults who are currently enrolled students. The marginal cost per train ticket from Baltimore to New York is 100. The demand for regular tickets is P=1000-5Q and the demand for student tickets is P-500-Q. (a) Why would a monopolist like Amtrak offers a discounted price for adult students rather than charging them the same price as other adults?
