Suppose the table below describes the relationship between price and quantity demanded for a monopolist. Quantity 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 O If the marginal cost of producing each unit of output is $5, then this monopolist maximizes its profit by charging __________ per unit. O $8 $5 $3 Price $10 $9 $8 $7 $6 $5 $4 $3 $6
Assuming that the price is greater than the average variable cost, a monopolist maximizes profits at the output for which (picture a graph): O price is equal to marginal revenue in the downward part of the marginal cost curve O marginal cost is equal to marginal revenue in the upward sloping part of the marginal cost curve O average variable cost and average total cost are in the downward part of their curves and price is equal to marginal cost O average total cost is at the lowest point
Exhibit 10-4 $/0 MC ATC 24 /t 10 The non-discriminating monopolist in Exhibit 10-4 should: O Produce 10 units at a price of $36 per unit. O Produce 10 units at a price of $24 per unit. O Produce 10 units at a price of $40 per unit. O Produce 15 units at a price of $32 per unit. O We cannot determine what the firm should do without knowing its average variable cost.

A single-price monopolist is currently producing at an output level where marginal revenue is $14, marginal cost is $16, AVC=$13, and ATC= $15. It is assumed that the monopolist, as usual, chooses its price on the demand curve. To maximize profit or minimize losses in the short run, this monopolist should O A. decrease the price and increase the level of output. O B. increase the price and the level of output. O C. leave the market. O D. decrease the price and the level of output. O E. increase the price and decrease the level of output.
A monopolist faces the following demand curve: Price $10 $9 $8 $7 $6 $5 $4 $3 Quantity 5 Select one: O a. 31 units O b. 7 units O c. 16 units O d. 23 units 10 16 23 31 45 52 60 The monopolist has total fixed costs of $40 and a constant marginal cost of $5.

A monopoly firm's total cost is: TC(Q) = Q° + 15Q + 225. if the industry's demand curve is described by P= 195 - 4Q. How much profit will this firm make if it is applying the profit maximizing rule? (Hint: MC = 20 + 15) O a$ 2025 O b.$ 1575 Oc.$ 279 O d. $ 3775 O e.$ 506
QUESTION 23 If the monopolist shown in the following figure could practice first-degree price discrimination, the producer surplus would be: Price (dollars) 50 40 30 20 10 $0. $225. $450. $900. O $1,200. 30 50 60 MR 100 MC Quantity
If a monopolist faces an inverse demand curve, p(y) = 100-2y and has constant marginal costs of $32 and zero fixed costs and if this monopolist is able to practice perfect price discrimination, its total profits will be O a. $1,156. O b. $17. O c. $578. O d. $1,734. O e. $289.
