Suppose that the monopolist can prevent the existence of a second-hand market. In other words, there can be no resale of the product between consumers after the initial purchase from the monopolist. What would the profit be for the monopolist from charging only one
price to the entire market? -
Again, with no second-hand market possible, suppose the monopolist can distinguish between type H and type L consumers and can offer a discount to type L consumers.
