3. A monopolist faces a demand curve of P = 120 – 2q and has a production function given by f (L, K) = L'/4K¼. Input prices are w = 1 and r = 4. (a) Calculate the monopolist's (long-run) marginal cost as a function of the quantity it produces. (b) Draw a diagram illustrating the monopolist's problem. Identify each of the following on the diagram and calculate its numeric value: (i) monopolist's profit-maximizing quantity, (ii) price charged, (iii) monopolist's profit, (iv) consumer surplus, (v) producer surplus, and (vi) deadweight loss. Two notes: (1) the area of a triangle is base * height, (2) if you are getting really messy answers here, you may have made a mistake in part (a). (c) The government is concerned about the monopoly and decides to impose a price ceiling. Illustrate the efficient price ceiling on your diagram. i. Illustrate and calculate the price ceiling that will result in an efficient outcome. ii. Compute consumer and producer surplus at the efficient outcome. iii.…
Suppose a monopoly can sell 1 unit for $20, or 2 units for $15 each. What is the marginal revenue of the 2nd unit? Question 9 options: $10 $0 $20, as this is the price when selling one unit $15 as this is the price when selling 2 units

5) Suppose a monopoly produces film and cameras. Consumers demand pictures, which require film and one camera. Two different types of consumers have the following demand for film, qÃ = 100 - 10p and q = 80 - 10p. The monopoly cannot price discriminate in the market for film or the market for cameras, but it can bundle the products. The monopoly produces film at a constant marginal cost of $1 per roll. What price will the monopoly set for film and for cameras?
8. Natural monopoly analysis The following graph gives the demand (D) curve for water services in the fictional town of Streamship Springs. The graph also shows the marginal revenue (MR) curve, the marginal cost (MC) curve, and the average total cost (ATC) curve for the local water company, a natural monopolist. On the following graph, use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the profit-maximizing price and quantity for this natural monopolist. ? PRICE (Dollars per hundred cubic feet) 40 36 32 28 24 20 16 12 8 0 0 1 MR 2 8 3 4 5 6 7 QUANTITY (Hundreds of cubic feet) ATC True MC False 9 10 The water company must own a scarce resource. D Which of the following statements are true about this natural monopoly? Check all that apply. The water company is experiencing economies of scale. The water company is experiencing diseconomies of scale. + In order for a monopoly to exist in this case, the government must have intervened and created it. Monopoly Outcome True or False: Without…

A monopolist is faced with the following cost and revenue curves:(picture) a.What is the maximum-profit price and output,total revenue, total cost and profit? b.If the monopolist were ordered to produce 300 units, what would be the market price and how much profit would now be made c.If the monopolist were faced with the same demand, but average costs were constant at £60 per unit, what output would maximise profit? What would be the price now?................................................................................................. (j) How much profit would now be made? ................................................................................... (k) Assume now that the monopolist decides not to maximise profits, but instead sets a price of £40. How much will now be sold? ..................................................................................................................................................

2. A monopolist sells tours of a stately Montana home to two groups of consumers, Montanans (M) and others (O). The monopolist knows the total demand for group O, which is Qo=100-2P, and the total demand for group M, which is QM =80-2P. The monopolist is able to identify consumers by inspecting their IDs and can thus apply third-degree price discrimination. The monopolist's cost function is C(G) = 4Q + 20. a. What price will the monopolist charge for group O? What price will the monopolist charge for group M? What is the monopolist's total profit? For the next questions assume that it has become illegal to charge different prices and thus the monopolist must charge the same price to everybody. b. Write down equations representing (1) aggregate demand and (2) marginal revenue at all possible prices. Find the profit maximizing price and output. Will both O's and M's purchase tours, or only one or the other? c. Suppose that the monopolist charges $44. What is total consumer surplus at…
