Explanation / Answer

7. In case of monopoly, profit maximising output is produced where MR=MC. The monopolist set the profit maximising price where the profit maximising output falls on the demand curve. So, according to the graph, the monopoly will charge $80 (this is the point where the profit maximising output lies on the demand curve).

Answer- option(d)

8. The profit maximising output lies on the ATC curve where ATC=$70 and profit maximising quantity is 20 units.

So, the total cost of production at profit maximising output level is, TC = ATC x Q = $(70*20) = $1400

Answer- option(b).

9. Profit maximizing quantity is 20 units , price is $80.

Therefore, total revenue at the profit maximising point is $(80*20) = $1600 and we found that TC at this point is $1400.

So, profit at this Profit maximising point is,

TR - TC = $(1600 - 1400) = $200

Answer - option (b)

10. In this situation the monopolistically competitive firm will earn a profit of $200 (as we calculated before)

Answer- option (c)

11. Profit maximizing output (output produced where MR=MC) is 20 units .

Answer- option (a)
