Suppose a monopolist sells a product to faculty members and students on the campus. If the firm sets a single price, the monopolist produces 5000 units and sell them at the price of $3 per unit. At this price, the price elasticity of demand for faculty member is -2.5. And the price elasticity of demand for students is -1.5. The monopolist is considering whether she should set different prices for the faculty members and students and asks for your advice. The monopolist is thinking about charging faculty members a 10% higher price. The quantity demanded by the faculty members would fall by %. The monopolist is thinking about charging students a 10% higher price. The quantity demanded by the students would fall by %. Who should the monopolist charge more? mention faculty and students and how much
Justify if each of the following statements is TRUE or FALSE. If the statement is TRUE, just write “True”. If the statement is FALSE, explain why it is wrong. a) Pos Malaysia is the sole firm which provides courier services in Malaysia. It is considered a monopolist in Malaysia. b) Sarawak Energy is the sole supplier of electricity transmission and distribution in Sarawak. It is a monopolist in Sarawak. c) Shell Out is a seafood restaurant with many outlets in Selangor and Kuala Lumpur. It is doing business in the perfectly competitive market.

Q4-11: Suppose we have a monopolist supplying two different markets. The demand in these markets is given by two types of consumers, each buying exactly one unit of the product a monopolist is selling so long as their consumer surplus is non-negative. If the consumer has a choice, she or he will buy the product that gives them the highest consumer surplus. the monopolist has estimated the indirect utility (CS) of each type of consumer as V₁ = 7z₁ - P₁ V₂ = 222 - P2 == where = {1,2} is the quality chosen by the monopolist i.e. vertical differentiation. The monopolist does not know each consumer's type. There are 397 type one consumers and 107 type two consumers. Finally suppose the marginal cost for all quantities is given by e(z) = 2. Q4-1: What are the lowest qualities type 1 and 2 consumers will demand. Q4- 3: What are the incentive compatibility constraints for type 1 and 2 Q4-4: The monopolist has three options: ■Sell only to high type consumers ■ Sell to both consumers the same…
Consider any market that has an inverted demand curve given by P = 200-0.6Qd, where P is the market price and Qd is the quantity demanded. Whatever the market structure, it is known that the production of this good takes place through Cmg = CVme= $80.00. Consider that the production of this market can be done by a monopolist company or by two duopolists. If it is a duopoly, the companies will organize themselves as a Stackelberg duopoly and will each have a fixed cost of $1,500.00. If it is a monopoly, this company will have a lot of expenses with licenses with the government, as it is the only one to explore the resource. In this way, your fixed costs would reach $5,000.00. Given this information, evaluate the best balance for this market, from the point of view of consumers.
A monopolist faces the following aggregate demand function: Q = 28 – 1/2 P. Total production costs for the firm are TC(Q) = 40Q. Calculate the consumer surplus, producer surplus, and profits in equilibrium. Then, suppose that the monopolist decides to spend 10 to purchase a patent that would allow her to decrease total costs by 4 per unit. Find the new equilibrium quantity, price, new consumer surplus, producer surplus, and profits to the monopolist after the purchase of the patent.

Suppose that a monopolist sells a product to men and women. If the firm sets a single price, the monopolist would produce 100000 units and sell them at a price of $5.00 per unit. Suppose that at that price, the price elasticity of demand for men is -0.75 and the price elasticity of demand for women is -2.50. The monopolist is considering whether he should set discriminatory prices and asks for you're advice. Part 1 Suppose the monopolist is thinking about charging men a %10 higher price. If the monopolist does so, the quantity demanded by men would fall by _______% (give answer to one decimal) Part 2. Suppose the monopolist is thinking about charging women a 10% higher price. If the monopolist does so, the quantity demanded by women would fall by ________% (give answer to one decimal)
In Fruitland, strawberries are sold in 4-litre baskets to customers on a "pick-your-own" basis. There are 2 farmers who sell strawberries: Mickey and Kit. There are no costs of supplying strawberries for sale for either farmer, so each has MC = ATC = 0. Profit therefore is simply TR. Market demand for strawberries is given in the accompanying table. If the market were served by a monopolist, the quantity traded would be 125 baskets, the price per 4-litre basket would be $7.50, and the profit for the firm would be $937.50. If Mickey and Kit decided to collude, each would have an individual quantity supplied of 62.5 baskets and each would have profits of $468.75. Suppose Mickey and Kit agree to split the monopoly outcome. Kit, acting in her own self-interest, realizes that she can cheat and supply 87.5 baskets; when she does, Kit's profits are $525.00 and Mickey's profits are $375.00. Mickey decides to retaliate and increases his supply to 87.5 baskets too; when he does, Kit's profits…
. Let the demand curve for a monopolist’s product be P = 100 – 2Qd and the marginal cost of production be constant at MC = 10. Suppose that the firm considers moving from a uniform pricing strategy to a two-block tariff where the first block provides 15 units at a price of P1 = $70 and the second block provides an additional 15 units at a price of P2 = $40. How much does the monopolist’s profit rise with this scheme?
Q24 Monopolists, like firms in other market structures, strive to maximize profit. Microsoft when it first came out with its Windows operating system was thought to be a monopolist. Assume that Microsoft is a monopolist producing an output such that ATC = $11, P = $9, MC = $5, MR = $6, and AVC = $4.50. Microsoft is realizing Multiple Choice an economic loss that could be reduced by producing more output. economies of scale. an economic profit that could be increased by producing less output. an economic loss that could be reduced by producing less output.
