- A monopolist has a demand curve given by Q=100-P and a total cost curve given by TC= Q2 + 16. Find the monopolist’s profit maximizing quantity and price. Indicate them on the graph. How much economic profit will the monopolist earn? Calculate the price elasticity of demand at the equilibrium price level.The monopolist faces the demand curve P = 180-2Q/3. The monopolists marginal cost of production is constant at 10. What is the profit maximizing price for this monopolist to charge? Answer is an integer.The monopolist has constant average and marginal costs AC-MC=60 and faces market demand P=100 - Q. Find the profit-maximizing output for the monopolist. Q*=40 O Q-50 O Q'-20 O Q-60 O Q'-80
- Suppose a monopolist sets output and lets the market determine the price. Given the monopolist's demand curve (D) and marginal cost schedule (MC), as depicted in the following diagram, answer the following questions: a) b) c) d) e) f) 9) Price MC D Quantity Precisely draw the marginal revenue curve corresponding to the demand curve (D) and label it as MR in the diagram. Identify the price and the output level that the monopolist would choose. Using the diagram drawn in part (a), identify the producer surplus that the monopolist will receive. In the same diagram, identify the consumer surplus corresponding to the monopoly outcome. Identify on the diagram what output and the price charged would be if the market were perfectly competitive. Is the monopoly equilibrium Pareto efficient? Provide reasons for your answer. Explain under which pricing conditions the monopolist would produce an efficient level of output.A single-price monopolist has the following equations representing its marginal cost and demand curves: Qd=800-1/3 P MC = 2Q What is the deadweight loss caused by this single-price monopoly?A monopolist has discovered that the inverse demand function of a person with income Y for the monopolist’s product is P = 0.002Y-Q where P is the price, Y the income, and Q is the output. The monopolist can observe the incomes of its consumers and hence vary its price accordingly. The monopolist has a total cost function C(Q) = 100Q. A. Calculate the profit maximising price as a function of the consumer’s income Y carefully explaining all the steps in the derivation of the formula. B. A monopolist has a constant marginal cost of £2 per unit and no fixed costs. He faces two separate markets in the United States and in the UK. The goods sold in one market are never resold in the other. He sets one price P1 for the US market and another price P2 for the UK market (both measured in £). The demand in the United States is given by Q1=7,000-700P1 and the demand in the UK is given by Q2=1,200-200P1. Calculate the profit maximising output produced and price charged in each country by the…

What is the monopolist's Lerner Index of monopoly power?Indicate whether each of the following statements applies to microeconomics or macroeconomics: i. The unemployment rate in Bangladesh was 9.7 percent in March 2019. ii. A Bangladeshi software firm discharged 15 workers last month and transferred the work to India. iii. Extreme cold weather in northern region of Bangladesh reduced the rice production and caused the price of rice to rise. iv. Inflation rate in Bangladesh decreased by 2.4 percent in 2018. v. Last week Sonarbangla Bank (a private commercial bank of Bangladesh) lowered its interest rate on business loans by one-half of 1 percentage point. vi. The GDP growth rate rose by 3.5 percent from July 2018 to June 2019.A monopolist can sell its product at any price it wishes. Is this true or false
- For a monopolist, we know that the MARKET DEMAND CURVE they face is given by the equation: Qd = 100 - 10*P (where Qd is market demand and P is the price)Consider a monopolist operating on a market with a downward sloping demand curve. The monopolist has a constant marginal cost and no fixed cost. At the current level of production and at the current price level, the price elasticity of demand is equal to -0.8. Assume the monopolist wishes to maximise profits. Would we be able to say anything about whether the monopolist has chosen a price and quantity that maximise profits? Explain your answer by means of diagrams (maximum 150 words) 2. What is the price elasticity of supply in this market?Consider an incumbent/monopolist with the following demand and marginal cost: P=300–Q; MC=$50. a. What is the profit maximizing price and output for the monopolist? What is the monopolist’s profit? b. Suppose there is a potential entrant, but the entrant has a cost disadvantage. The entrant’s MC = $75. Solve for the residual demand curve for the potential entrant (the entrant assumes that the monopolist will not change their total quantity from part a). c. What is the entrant’s output, price, and profit? What is the monopolist’s profit? d. What is the limit price that the monopolist could charge to deter entry? e. Is the threat/promise of the monopolist to charge the limit price a credible threat, or is the monopolist better off accommodating entry? Explain briefly.
