Document Summary

Demand for type i buyers: p = 20 (1/2)q. Demand for type ii buyers: p = 10 (1/8)q. Suppose there is a single producer of this good and the producer"s mc is given by the equation: Assume that this producer has no fixed costs: (2. 5 points) suppose that this producer can treat this market as two separate markets: the market for. Total revenue from type i buyers = ____________ Total cost from type i buyers = ___________ Profit from type i buyers = ___________: (2. 5 points) suppose that this producer can treat this market as two separate markets: the market for. Type i buyers and the market for type ii buyers. Total revenue from type ii buyers = ____________ Total cost from type ii buyers = ___________ Calculate the profit maximizing quantity if the producer combines these two types of buyers into one market.

a. Determine the optimal price, quantity and economic profit for the firm if it is a pure monopolist.

b. If the firm wants to preclude all entry into the market what price, quantity and profit will it choose?

c. What price, quantity, and corresponding profit occur if this a purely competitive market?

A firm has estimated that the demand for its product comes from two types of customers, type I and type II. Each type I customer -there are 30 of them- has a demand curve given by Q = 20 - P, while each type II customer -there are 50 of them- has a demand curve given by Q = 15 - P. The firm's marginal cost is constant and equal to $5. Suppose the firm wants to use a two-part pricing strategy (T; P), and it has decided to set P = $5 (we know this need not be optimal, but this is what the firm has decided to set). With P= $5, the profit-maximizing T is ________.

2. A price-taking firm has a short run cost function SC(q)=3q^{2}+18q+600

a) In Problem #1, we showed that every q<7 would never be the profit-maximizing quantity at any price. Calculate SAVC(q) and MC(q) and use them to explain why for every q>0, there is a P for which that q is the profit-maximizing quantity.

b) Calculate the profit for this firm if the price is P = 72. Using either an integral or geometry, calculate the producer surplus for the firm at P = 72. Explain how the Producer surplus is related to the profit number.

c) Calculate P= p (72)- p (18). Explain how this number is related to the producer surplus.
