If the monopoly firm can produce any output level with the extra cost $3 per unit, how would the marginal cost (MC) curve be? List the mathematical equation and draw the MC curve on the same figure of question The fixed cost for the monopoly company is $25. Find the optimal output level and the related profit/loss for it. There are two proposals concerning the market efficiency: Plan A: regulate the market price at $4. Plan B: allow and help the monopoly enforce the perfect price discrimination. If you represent consumers to vote for one plan, which one would you choose? Explain with proper calculation (Hint: consumers only care about their welfare).

Suppose a local utility company provides electricity to a small town. The figure to the right illustrates the utility company's marginal cost of providing electricity along with the town's demand for electricity. Part 2 Assume the local utility company is a monopoly. Use the triangle drawing tool to shade in the dead weight loss created by the monopoly (compared to if the market were perfectly competitive). Properly label this shaded area.

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?
Assume the following equations describe the conditions for a monopoly: Qd = 2,000 - 100P TC = 3,500 + 5q + .005q2 Where Qd is the quantity demanded, P is the commodity's price in dollars, TC is the firm's total cost in dollars and q is the quantity of output produced. Based upon these equations, answer the following questions: a. What is the firm's equation for total revenue expressed as a function of quantity? b. What is the firm's equation for marginal revenue expressed as a function of quantity? What is the firm's equation for marginal cost expressed as a function of quantity? c. What is the firm's profit maximizing quantity of output? d. What price will the firm charge for the commodity? e. What would be the socially optimal quantity of output? f. What price would regulators have to establish in order to have the firm produce the socially optimal quantity of output?
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.
