1. Consider a small isolated town with a single brewery with a the inverse demand curve for beer -- p = 15 - 0.33QD. The brewery can produce beer at a constant marginal and average cost, MR = ATC = $1. What is the brewery's profit maximizing output (you may round)? 2.

Polly owns a monopoly in her small town. She knows that the market demand curve for her product is given by the following equation where P is the price per unit of the good and Q is the number of units of the good: Market Demand: P = 330 – 2Q. Polly also knows the following cost structure: Average Total Cost: ATC=10 Marginal Cost: MC=10 11) What is the profit maximizing quantity and price for Polly given the above information?...

4. The market demand for pizza in a small town is estimated to be P 250 20 This market is served by two firms: 1 and 2. Firm 1 has costs of TC1 20q1 while firm 2 is more cost efficient, with costs of TC2 10q2 (16 marks total) a. If the two firms set prices and compete à la Bertrand, what is the (4 marks) (2 marks) equilibrium price of pizza? What is the output for each firm? b....

2. Suppose that you run the only movie theater in a small town – it is a monopoly in your area. On occasion you have given discounts to students from a nearby college (they have to show their college ID to get the discount and to enter the theater). From analyzing your sales data over time, you realize that your customers have differing price elasticities of demand – movie goers who are not students have a price elasticity of demand...

2. Esta Estelle is a monopolistic provider of a service in a small town (she helps people organize their closets). The demand for her services is given by Q = 600 - 4P where is the number of customers she serves and P is the price she charges (in dollars). Finally, suppose that Estelle's marginal cost and average cost of production are given by LRAC = LRMC = 30. (a) If Estelle chooses to use a liner pricing strategy, what...
Joe has just moved to a small town with only one golf course, the Northlands Golf...
Joe has just moved to a small town with only one golf course, the Northlands Golf Club. His inverse demand function is p=140−22q, where q is the number of rounds of golf that he plays per year. The manager of the Northlands Club negotiates separately with each person who joins the club and can therefore charge individual prices. This manager has a good idea of what Joe's demand curve is and offers Joe a special deal, where Joe pays an...
Suppose a small town has a single gasoline station. The station has marginal costs of $2...
Suppose a small town has a single gasoline station. The station has marginal costs of $2 per gallon, and the gas station owner acts as a monopolist by choosing the quantity and price of gasoline to maximize profits. The town is fairly isolated, and residents of the town account for all of the gasoline demand in the town. The town has an inverse demand curve of P = 10 – Q, where P is the price of gasoline (in dollars...

Action Systems is a monopolist that is the only seller of the world's most popular gaming system. The following graph shows the market demand and marginal revenue curves Action Systems faces, as well as its marginal cost curve, which is constant at $40 per console. For simplicity, assume that fixed costs are equal to zero; this, combined with the fact that the firm's marginal cost (MC) is constant, means that its marginal cost curve is also equal to the average...

Only THIS SIDE MONOPOLY Woreksiteet Hint: Under perfect competition price is fixed for a small producer and MR is the same as price. Under monopoly demand is down sloping and price changes at different quantities. Therefore under monopoly MR is no longer the same as price. You need to calculate it. MR equals change in TR divided by change in Q. TR is still the product of price multiplied by quantity and the rules of profit maximization are the same...

Imagine a small town in which only two residents, Celia and Venya, own wells that produce safe drinking water. Each week Celia and Venya work together to decide how many gallons of water to pump. They bring the water to town and sell it at whatever price the market will bear. To keep things simple, suppose that Celia and Venya can pump as much water as they want without cost so that the marginal cost of water equals zero. The...
