Question 5 A monopolist sells in two markets. The demand curve for her product is given by p₁ = 119 – 2x₁ in the first market and p₂ = 123 - 5x₂ in the second market, where x; is the quantity sold in Market i and Pi is the price charged in Market i. She has a constant marginal cost of production, MC = 3; and no fixed costs. She can charge different prices in the two markets. What is the profit-maximizing combination of quantities for this monopolist?

In this question, I ask you to consider the market for flights from Seattle to Fresno (California). Alaska Airlines have a monopoly on this route. There are two types of travellers. Leisure travellers derive a value of $200 from flying this route if the itinerary includes a Saturday night stay, and $175 if the itinerary doesn’t include a Saturday night stay. Business travellers derive a value of $100 from flying this route if the itinerary includes a Saturday night stay, and $450 if the itinerary doesn’t include a Saturday night stay. What prices do you suggest that Alaska charge for itineraries that include a Saturday night stay, and those that do not include a Saturday night stay?How might business travellers respond to the pricing strategy you suggested?
