Consider the figure on the right. A single-price monopolist will produce ○ A. 135 units and charge a price equal to $32. B. 135 units and generate a deadweight loss.

Marginal cost is constant and equal to $10 per treatment in both countries. The marginal revenue per treatment of increasing output from 3 million to 9 million is equal to ○ A. $20 per treatment, which is greater than the marginal cost of $10 per treatment and thus implies that profits will rise. ○ B. $20 per treatment, which is greater than zero and thus implies that profits will rise. ○ C. $30 per treatment, which is greater than the marginal cost of $10 per treatment and thus implies that profits will rise. ○ D. $5 per treatment, which is less than the marginal cost of $10 per treatment and thus implies that profits will fall. ○ E. $30 per treatment, which is less than the marginal revenue of $80 per treatment…
