Question

2. Assume a firm under Monopoly in the Short Run. MC ATC MR Quantity Where, As $10, B= $8, C= $7, M=10(units), N=12, Q#14, R=18 A. The profit-maximizing output for this monopoly firm is ( units. B. The profit-maximizing price for this firm is s C. At the profit-maximizing output, TR(Total revenue) is represented by area ( ) and TC(total cost) is represented by area ( D. At the profit-maximizing output, the firm's economic profit per unit will be $(). E. At the profit-maximizing output, the firm's total economic profit will be s(),which is represented by area ( F. At output R, economic profits will be s () G. At output M, TC(total cost) will be $( and TR will be s(

Explanation / Answer

Answer

a)

the monopoly produces where MR=MC

Q=M=10 units

b)

the price is found from demand curve at the production level

P=A=$10

c)

TR=P*Q=10*10=$100=area 0AFM

TC=ATC*Q=10*8=$80=area 0BGM

d)

Profit per unit=P-ATC

=10-8=$2 per unit profit

e)

Profit=per unit profit*Q=2*10=$20

=the area ABGF
