- Suppose that the demand curve for a good is P = 100 – 2Q. The marginal cost curve of a firm in the industry is given by MC = 3Q. Calculate and compare the equilibrium price and quantity under monopoly and perfect competition.It is often said that a competitive market is more beneficial for the consumers as compared to the monopoly market. Why ? Explain.Which of the following is true of both perfectly competitive AND monopoly markets? Firms have market power. Firms earn 0 economic profit in the long run. Marginal revenue is equal to price. Firms choose to produce a quantity at which marginal cost is equal to marginal revenue. There is no deadweight loss.
- A firm faces a market demand curve given by: P = 100 - Q. Assume that the firm has a total cost given by: TC = Q2 - 60Q + 1,000. What are the price quantity combination that maximizes profit? Calculate the following in case of Perfect Monopoly and Perfect Competition? compare your results? a. What output level should the firm produce to maximize profit? b. What is the profit maximization price (P) for this firm? c. What is the firm's profit? d. What is the Consumer Surplus?Comparing a perfectly competitive market to a monopoly, which of the following is true? Group of answer choices Price will be higher than marginal cost in the perfectly competitive market but will beequal to marginal cost in the monopoly. Price will be equal to marginal revenue in the perfectly competitive market but will behigher than marginal revenue in the monopoly. at that point on the market demand curve which intersects the marginal cost curve. Price will be higher and quantity will be lower in the perfectly competitive market than inthe monopoly.Blue INK is the only cabel service provider in Gazipur. The diagram below depicts the price, output and costs incurred by Blue INK. Use the graph to answer the following questions: 1.

What is the profit-maximizing solution? The profit-maximizing quantity is 28.50. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) The profit-maximizing price is $63.00. (round your answer to two decimal places.) What is the firm's economic profit? The firm earns a profit of $ 1584.50. (round your answer to two decimal places.)
