Suppose each firm producing standard paper has a monthly cost function C(qi) = 50qi2 + 50 where qi is the quantity produced by each firm. Monthly demand for standard paper is Q = 2040 − P.
(a) What is the marginal revenue of each firm if there are 100 identical price-taking firms?
(b) What is the profit-maximizing price and quantity if there are 100 identical price taking firms? What is the consumer surplus? Deadweight loss?
(c) What is the firm’s marginal revenue as a function of quantity if there is a monopoly firm?
(d) What is the profit-maximizing price and quantity of a monopoly? What is the consumer surplus? Deadweight loss?

Part 1
Suppose a firm operating in a competitive market has the
following cost curves:
a. If the market price is $10, what is the firm’s economic
profit?
b. If the market price is $10, what is the firm’s total cost?
c. If the market price is $10, what is the firm’s total
revenue?
d. The firm will earn zero economic profit if the market price
is
e. If the market price is $4, what is the firm’s decision in...
Suppose a profit maximizing monopolist has total cost and marginal
cost as follow:1. Suppose a profit-maximizing monopolist has total cost and marginal cost as follow: \(\mathrm{TC}=0.1 Q^{2}+Q+10\) and \(\mathrm{MC}=0.2 Q+1\). It faces the demand curve \(\mathrm{Q}=35-5^{\mathrm{P}} .(35\) points \()\)a) What are the price, output, and profit for this monopolist?b) Carefully draw the diagram that illustrates your answers.c) What are the equilibrium price, output, and total profit if this is a perfectly competitive market?d) Compare the results between monopoly and perfect...
Sketch a natural monopoly firm under marginal cost pricing regulation. Label its price, quantity, and profit. What is the deadweight loss (loss in consumer and producer surplus) if regulation is effective?
A monopolist’s inverse demand is P=500-2Q, the total cost function is TC=50Q2 + 1000Q and Marginal cost is MC=100Q+100, where Q is thousands of units. a). what price would the monopolist charge to maximize profits and how many units will the monopolist sell? (hint, recall that the slope of the MARGINAL Revenue is twice as steep as the inverse demand curve. b). at the profit-maximizing price, how much profit would the monopolist earn? c). find consumer surplus and Producer surplus...
Suppose a profit-maximizing monopolist has total cost and marginal cost as follow. TC =8Q + 10 and MC = 8. It faces the demand curve P=20-1/5Q. What is the equilibrium price and output? What is the total profit? Calculate the consumer surplus, producer surplus, and deadweight loss if the firm acts as a monopolist. Illustrate your answer with a diagram. Calculate the consumer surplus, producer surplus, and deadweight loss if the firm acts as a perfectly price-discriminated monopolist. Illustrate your answer with a diagram.
1. Suppose that a single-price monopolist faces the demand function P 100 Q where I is average weekly household income, and that the firm's marginal cost function is given by MC(Q) 2Q. The firm has no fixed costs. = (a) If the average weekly household income is $600, find the firm's marginal revenue function. (b) What is the firm's profit-maximizing quantity of output? At what price will the firm sell that output? What will the firm's marginal cost be? (c)...
A monopoly firm faces the following demand curve: P = 25-2.5 QD. 1)Create the demand schedule for the firm by increasing quantity demanded in increments of one unit. 2)Produce a table with the total revenue and marginal revenue for the output levels in increments of one unit. 3)If the firm’s marginal cost is constant at $12.50 per unit, what is the profit maximizing output and price? 4)What is the efficient quantity and price? 5)What is the value of the deadweight...
I just need help with part b. I know how to do part a, but I
don't know how to go about including the competitive equilibrium
for part b
