A manufacturing company has a monopoly on the production. A single (individual) manufacturer demand for mixer is Q = 4 − P. The marginal cost of producing mixer is $1. Solve the following: 1. Profit-maximizing monopoly, quantity, price, and profit from serving this single concrete contractor.2. What would the quantity be if the Manufacturing company serves 100 mixercontractor identical to this one?
Suppose that the quantity of natural gas demanded in a city is 70 billion cubic meters when the price is $0.24 per cubic meter. The table below shows the total costs for a firm supplying natural gas to this market. Is the firm a natural monopoly? Quantity (billion m³) 20 30 40 50 60 70 Total cost ($ billion) 4.5 6. 9.0 12.0 15.5 19.5 No, because two or more firms could satisfy the entire market demand at a lower total cost than a single firm can. No, because two or more firms could satisfy the entire market demand at a lower average total cost than a single firm can. Yes, because a single firm can satisfy the entire market demand at a lower total cost than two or more firms could. Yes, because a single firm can satisfy the entire market demand at a lower average total cost than two or more firms could.

The following diagram illustrates the demand curve facing a monopoly in an industry with no economies or diseconomies of scale and no fixed costs. In the short and long run, MC = ATC. 1.) Using the point drawing tool, indicate the monopoly output and monopoly price (Monopoly) in the figure to the right. Attach the appropriate provided label. 2.) Using the rectangle drawing tool, shade in monopoly profits (Profit). Attach the appropriate provided label. 3.) Using the triangle drawing tool, shade in the "excess burden" or "welfare costs" of the monopoly (Excess burden). Attach the appropriate provided label. Note: Carefully follow the instructions above and only draw the required objects. The monopoly creates excess burden because O A. it produces where price equals marginal cost. B. it produces an inefficiently large amount of output. O C. it charges a price that is too low. D. it produces where marginal cost is positive. E. it produces where price is above marginal cost.

↑ If a monopoly faces an inverse demand curve of p=270-Q has a constant marginal and average cost of $90, and can perfectly price discriminate, what is its profit? What are the consumer surplus, welfare, and deadweight loss? How would these results change if the firm were a single-price monopoly? Profit from perfect price discrimination (x) is $ 16.200 (Enter your response as a whole number) Corresponding consumer surplus is (enter your response as whole numbers): welfare is and deadweight loss is CS=$ W-s OWL-S
