Hot Air Balloon Rides is a single-price monopoly. Columns 1 and 2 of the table set out the market demand schedule and columns 2 and 3 set out the total cost schedule. Now suppose that the government places a fixed tax on Hot Air's profit of $50 a month. Calculate Hot Air's new profit-maximizing output and price.

A monopolist produces commodity Z. Suppose that an ad valorem tax is levied on Z. What are the effects of the tax on the quantity demanded, the price paid by consumers, the price paid by the monopolist, and monopoly profits? Who bears the tax burden? State your assumptions and use a graph to illustrate your conclusions.
Tecky Corp is a monopoly in the market of product Y. Suppose you are the marketing manager of Tecky Corp. You have gathered some information about product Y and the cost of Tecky Corp. as shown in the table below. Total cost $ Unit Price $ Total revenue $ Quantity 300 1 680 680 430 560 1,120 592 440 1,320 3 792 4 370 1,480 1,024 1,400 280 1,304 1,260 210 1,626 1,050 150 2,025 100 800 2,432 You are in a meeting with the CEO of Tecky Corp. The CEO asks the following question A. during the meeting: "We should be able to get more revenue as we sell more units. I see the total revenue rises from the quantity of 1 to 4. However, why does the total revenue start falling from the quantity of 5 onward?" Explain to the CEO why this is the case.
Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion A monopolist faces market demand given by P = 1000 – 10Q. For this market, MR = 1000 – 20Q, MC = 100 + 10Q and ATC = 100 + 5Q. If the monopolist does not price discriminate, what is the value of consumer surplus?
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?
