- O OO The above graph shows the market demand function for a product. Assume that the market is served by a perfectly-price-discriminating monopolist with a constant marginal cost of production equal to $4 (MC = $4) and no fixed cost (FC = 0).

A new supplier, Cheap Flights, enters the market. Suppliers in the market compete by simultaneously choosing the quantity of flights they will supply.

It is not possible to say what will happen to the quantity of flights.3.

- Suppose an airline sells air tickets to two types of customer – business travelersand vacation travelers. Their estimated demand elasticities are -2.5 and -4.0respectively.Suppose the marginal cost is constant at $240, and the services provided to thetwo types of customer are similar.a. Based on the given information, explain with TWO practical reasons whether theairline should charge a higher price on business travelers or vocational travelers.Explain without calculation.A college has two types fo students: students from middle-income families who have an estimated price elasticity of demand equal to -1 1/2 and students from lower-income families who have an estimated price elasticity of demand equal to -2 1/2. The colleges marginal cost for providing one-year's academic credit is $4,500 regardless of which student is receiving the education. a. What annual tuition (price) should the college establish for students from middle-income families? b. What annual tuition(price) should the college establish for students from lower-income families?19. Firm A is monopolist in x market, and it consumes one unit of y in order to produce one unit of x. It costs 5 + py TL to produce one unit of x. (py is the price of product y.) y is produced by a monopolist, B, and it costs 5 TL to produce one unitf of y. The demand for x is defined by px = 50-qx (px product price, qx quantity demanded). a) Assume that px is set by Firm A and py is set by Firm B. What would be the equilibrium prices for products x and y? Calculate Firm A and B's profits. b) Assume that Firms A and B merge together. What would be the equilibrium prices for products x and y? Calculate the profits of the new firm. c) Would the merger between A and B increase the consumer surplus? Why (not)?
