A small town is served by many competing supermarkets, which all have the same constant marginal cost.
Use the black point (plus symbol) to show the competitive price and quantity in this market. Then use the green area (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing consumer surplus in the market for groceries, and use the purple area (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing producer surplus.
Now suppose that the independent supermarkets combine into one chain.
Use the black point...

5. Problems and Applications Q5 Consider the relationship between monopoly pricing and the price elasticity of demand If demand is inelastic and a monopolist raises its price, total revenue would and total cost would .Therefore, a monopolist will produce a quantity at which the demand curve is inelastic Use the purple segment (diamond symbols) to indicate the portion of the demand curve that is inelastic. (Hint: The answer is related to the marginal- revenue (MR) curve.) Then use the black...

This chapter analyzed the welfare effects of a tax on a good. Consider now the opposite policy. Suppose that the government subsidizes a good. For each unit of the good sold, the government pays $2 to the buyer. Use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the initial equilibrium in this market before the subsidy. Then use the green point (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing consumer surplus, and use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing...
