Why might a firm have monopoly power even if it is not the only producer in the market? O A. There is an inverse relationship between monopoly power and the elasticity of the market demand curve, and as long as the demand curve is not perfectly elastic, firms will have some monopoly power. O B. There is a positive relationship between monopoly power and the elasticity of the firm's demand curve, and as long as its demand curve is not perfectly inelastic, the firm will have some monopoly power. OC. There is an inverse relationship between monopoly power and the elasticity of the firm's demand curve, and as long as its demand curve is not perfectly elastic, the firm will have some monopoly power. OD. There is a positive relationship between monopoly power and the elasticity of the market demand curve, and as long as the demand curve is not perfectly inelastic, firms will have some monopoly power. O E. There is an inverse relationship between monopoly power and the elasticity of the firm's demand curve, and as long as its demand curve is perfectly elastic the firm will have some monopoly power.

4. Is consumer surplus higher in a competitive market or a monopoly? What about producer surplus?
In 2006, the five leading suppliers of digital cameras in the United States were Canon,Sony, Kodak, Olympus, and Samsung. The combined market share of these five firmswas 60.9 percent. The leading firm was Canon, with a market share of 18.7 percent. Theown price elasticity for Canon’s cameras was –4.0 and the market elasticity of demandwas –1.6. Suppose that in 2006, the average retail price of a Canon digital camera was$240 and that Canon’s marginal cost was $180 per camera. Suppose you were the CEO of Kodak, what would you do to avoid its business failure? Please apply the specific tools from managerial economics to the case analysis
In class we talked about clothing makers that concentrate (cluster) around a button maker. Figure 1 below is a graph that we drew. I have labeled the curves ambiguously (1 and 2) on purpose.

You manage one of three firms in a market. You expect that one of the other firms will produce 20 units of output and the other firm will produce 10 units of output. Your monopoly quantity is 40. How much output should your firm produce given your expectations regarding the output levels of the other two firms? O 25 O 15 O 30 O 40
Consider a monopoly using a two part tariff against consumers with downward sloping individual demand: (i) The monopolist will produce the efficient output. (ii) The monopolist will extract all surplus from consumers. O a. (ii) Holds only for homogeneous consumers, but (i) holds with hetrogeneous consumers as well. O b. Even with homogeneous consumers, the monopolist will not always be able to assure that both (i) and (ii) hold. O c. (i) and (ii) are true only when consumers are homogenous. O d. (i) holds only for homogenous consumers, but (ii) holds with hetrogeneous consumers as well.
