Question

"Monopolistic competition is literally a kind of competition. Hence, there is no deadweight loss in a monopolistically competitive market." The statement is by definition correct but empirically incorrect. The statement is correct. The statement is incorrect. None of the statements associated with this question are correct A firm can produce two products with the cost function C(Q1, Q2) = 10 + 5Q1 + 5Q2 - 0.2Q1Q2. The firm enjoys: economies of scale in the two products separately. economies of scope. cost complementarity. economies of scale in the two products separately and cost complementarity. A firm has a total cost function of C(Q) = 50 + 10Q1/2. The firm experiences economies of scale. constant returns to scale. diseconomies of scale. all of the statements associated with this question are correct depending on the quantity. A monopoly has two production plants with cost functions C1 = 50 + 0.1 Q12 and C2 = 30 + 0.05 Q22. The demand it faces is Q = 500 - 10 P. What is the condition for profit maximization? MC1(Q1) = MC2(Q2) = P(Q1 + Q2). MC1(Q1) = MC2(Q2) = MR(Q1 + Q2). MC1(Q1 + Q2) = MC2(Q1 + Q2) = P (Q1 + Q2). MC1(Q1 + Q2) = MC2(Q1 + Q2) = MR (Q1 + Q2).
