A natural monopoly exists when O producing a large output has significantly lower marginal cost than producing a small output. the good produced by a monopoly is classified as a natural product. exploitative business tactics are used to force other companies out of the market illegally. O the monopoly-level of market power develops naturally due to the company's high product quality.
12) Suppose that a monopolist supplies a product in two distinct markets, LA and NY. The demand functions for the two markets are PLa = 65 – 3QLA and Pvy = 50 – 5QNY. The monopolist has a fixed cost of $10 and a constant marginal cost of $5 per unit. a. If segmenting is feasible, what are the profit-maximizing prices, quantities, and maximized profit? b. If segmenting is NOT feasible, what is the profit-maximizing price, quantity, and maximized profit? c. How much is the difference in total consumer surplus in the two cases? Which case makes consumers better off?
An industry with only one producer has a demand curve of P = 90-Q, with price in dollars and quantity in thousands. The monopolist's marginal cost curve is MC = 30 + 2Q. What is the deadweight loss of monopoly in this industry? O $100,000 O $37,500 O $72,667 $50,000
3. A monopolist can produce at constant average and marginal costs of AC = MC = 5. The firm faces a market demand curve given by Q = 55-P. (a) Calculate the profit-maximizing price-quantity combination for the monopolist. Also, calculate the monopolist's profits. Graph the relevant functions to illustrate these. (b) What output level would be produced by this industry under perfect competition (where price = marginal cost)? Indicate this on the graph. (c) Calculate the consumer surplus obtained by consumers in case (b). Show that this exceeds the sum of the monopolist's profits and the consumer surplus received in case (a). What is the value of the deadweight loss from monopolization? Indicate these on the graph.
Question 9 Because a monopolist has market power, which of the following is NOT a characteristic of a monopolist? O It faces a horizontal demand curve O It faces a downward-sloping demand curve O When it produces an extra unit of output, it must lower its price for on all units sold O Its marginal revenue curve is below its demand curve

(please review notes on 'Consumer value (refer to slides 1, 2, and 3)) O $0.75. Ⓒ$1.0. O $1.25. O $1.5.
Suppose that the monopolist sells its goods for two segments of the population and the demand functions are given by Q, = 120P * and Q, = 320P,.f the monopolist can produce at AC-MC=6 and can discriminate the prices what are the optimal prices, respectively? %3D %3D O $7, $8 O $7, $4 O $4, $7 $8, $7
2. A monopolist has two specific demanders with demand equations: qA = 10 – p and qB = 10 – 2p. This monopolist implements an optimal two-part tariff pricing scheme, under which demanders pay a fixed feea for the right to consume the good and a uniform price p for each unit consumed. The monopolist chooses a and p to maximize profits. This monopolist produces at constant average and marginal costs of AC = MC = 2. The monopolist’s profits are __________ and the average price paid by demander B is _________.
