Question 2 of 18 Which is a defining feature of market failure? inefficient output rent seeking O market surplus O high consumer debt Why do monopolies result in the feature described in the previous question? Prices are higher in monopoly than they would be in a competitive market. Demand decreases when only one producer exists. Producers artificially create a surplus. Without competitive firms in the market, interest rates remain high.

Identify the primary difference between a purely competition and a monopoly market
The graph illustrates an industry in which many firms operating in perfect competition are taken over by one firm that operates as a single-price monopoly. Draw the following shapes: 1) the consumer surplus arising from monopoly. Label it CS. 2) the deadweight loss arising from monopoly. Label it DWL 3) the loss of consumer surplus that is a gain to the monopoly as producer surplus. Label it Monopoly's gain. Indicate whether each of the following statements is true or false. At the competitive equilibrium, marginal social benefit equals marginal social cost. At the competitive equilibrium, the sum of consumer surplus and producer surplus is maximized. At the long-run competitive equilibrium, firms produce at the lowest possible long-run average cost. 30- 25- 20 15- 10- 5- Price and cost (dollars per haircut) 0+ 0.0 MR 1.0 2.0 3.0 4.0 Quantity (thousands of haircuts) MSC 5.0

QUESTION 21 Please refer to the figure below. and Cost 0 Demand R ED 225 ATC Quantity Which lettered point (i.e. A,B,C,D) is at the price-quantity combination that would exist under an unregulated monopoly? Which lettered point (i.e. A,B,C,D) is at the price-quantity combination that would be efficient, from society's perspective? Which lettered point (i.e. A,B,C,D) is at the price-quantity combination that, in theory, the regulator aims for?
A monopoly is operating at a quantity where average total cost is $70, marginal revenue is $50, and the price is $65. If the monopoly's ATC curve is U-shaped and is currently at its minimum level, then to maximize profits, this business should: Select an answer and submit. For keyboard navigation, use the up/down arrow keys to select an answer. a raise quantity produced. b lower quantity produced. not change the quantity produced since it is already maximizing profits. d. shut down.

Happyland is one of five amusement parks on Sunshine Island. The following graph shows Happyland's kinked demand curve (D₁ - D₂) and the resulting marginal revenue curve (MR₁ - MR₂). The graph also shows two possible marginal cost curves (MC₁ and MC₂).

Assume Happyland's marginal cost is represented by MC2. Happyland will set a price of per ticket. its price, other firms will not follow suit, but if one firm its price, According to the kinked demand curve model, if one firm other firms will do likewise to retain their market share. Therefore, if one of Happyland's competitors decreases its price to below the price you just found for Happyland, Happyland will The basic principle behind the kinked demand curve model explains why the D₁ portion of the kinked demand curve is relatively D₂ portion. If Happyland's marginal cost…

In 2015, Apple introduced the Apple Watch. Assume that the cost of producing the 38mm Apple Watch Sport was $73. The price was $363. What was Apple's price/marginal cost ratio? What was its Lerner Index? If Apple is a short-run profit-maximizing monopoly, what elasticity of demand did Apple believe it faced? Apple's price/marginal cost ratio was 4.97. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.) The value of Apple's Lerner Index (L) was 80. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.) Apple's elasticity of demand (e) is.
