3. A monopolist faces demand P=60−5q, has constant marginal costs of 15, and has zero fixed costs. If this monopolist is able to practice perfect price discrimination, its maximum total profit will be a) 202.50 dollars. b) 405.00 dollars. c) 135.00 dollars. d) 151.88 dollars.
ev Quantity, price, total revenue, and total cost for a monopoly firm that produces cement are listed in the table below. Quantity, (Q) (tons) Price (P) Total Revenue (TR) Total Cost (TC) 1 $1,300 $1,300 $900 2 $1,215 $2,430 $980 3 $1,130 $3,390 4 $1,045 $4,180 5 $960 $4,800 6 $875 $5,250 7 $790 $5,530 Determine the firm's profit-maximizing price. Write the exact answer. Do not round. Answer S $1,100 $1,270 $1,510 $1,960 $2,560
You are considering entering a market serviced by a monopolist You are considering entering a market serviced by a monopolist. You currently earn $0 economic profits, while the monopolist earns $5. If you enter the market and the monopolist engages in a price war, you will lose $5 and the monopolist will earn $1. If the monopolist doesn’t engage in a price war, you will each earn profits of $2.There are two possible solutions or equilibria. What are they?

4. Consider a monopolist with cost funetion c(q) = 20g, who is facing two con- sumers. The consumers' demand functions are given by 91 = 100 - p 92 = 300 – 3p. (a) Suppose the monopolist does not price discriminate. Find the monopolist's optimal pricing strategy, the resulting profit, and Lerner Index. (b) Suppose the monopolist can engage in third degree price discrimination. Find the monopolist's optimal pricing strategy and the resulting profit. Compare the profit with that found in part (a), and give an intuitive ex- planation. (c) Now, suppose the monopolist can produce the good at zero cost. That is clq) = 0. Find the monopolist's optimal second degree price discrimination strategy.

Exercise 3.3. Suppose a profit-maximizing monopolist is producing 800 units of output and is charging a price of $40 per unit. a. If the elasticity of demand for the product is -2, find the marginal cost of the last unit produced. b. What is the firm's percentage markup of price over marginal cost? c. Suppose that the average cost of the last unit produced is $15 and the firm's fixed cost is $2000. Find the firm's profit.
53) A monopolist faces a straight-line demand curve and is currently producing an output level of 2000 units receiving $10 000 in total revenue. At an output of 1000 units the marginal revenue for this firm would be A) 0. B) $2.50. C) $5.00. D) $10.00. E) Impossible to tell with the given information.
Website Profit The latest demand equation for your gaming website, www.mudbeast.net, is given by q=-100x + 1500 where q is the number of users who log on per month and x is the log-on fee you charge. Your Internet provider bills you as follows. Site maintenance fee: $50 per month High-volume access fee: $0.50 per log-on Find the monthly cost as a function of the log-on fee x. C(x): = X Find the monthly profit as a function of x. P(x) = Determine the log-on fee you should charge (in dollars) to obtain the largest possible monthly profit. x = $ per log-on What is the largest possible monthly profit (in dollars)? $
What determines whether or not a monopolist is able to charge different prices for the same product? Discuss the conditions necessary for successful price discrimination and offer a few examples where you think price discrimination is being practiced. Remember that the product has to be the same for it to be price discrimination. So if I pay more for overnight delivery of an item I am paying for that convenience and it is not price discrimination
