Question 1

Exhibit
The following diagram depicts monopolistically competitive firms.​
 
-Refer to Exhibit. The firm illustrated in Graph A above maximizes profits (minimizes losses) by producing at level of output ____ and charging price ____.

Accepted Answer

The firm maximizes profits by producing at the output level where marginal cost equals marginal revenue. In Graph A, this occurs at output level q1 and price P1.

Question 2

Exhibit
The following diagram depicts monopolistically competitive firms.​
 
-Refer to Exhibit. In Graph B above, the firm will maximize profits (minimize losses) by producing at level of output ____ and charging price ____.

Accepted Answer

In Graph B, the firm will maximize profits by producing at output level q1 and charging price P1. This is because at this point, the marginal revenue curve (MR) intersects the marginal cost curve (MC), indicating that the firm is producing at the point where the additional revenue from selling one more unit of output is equal to the additional cost of producing that unit.

Question 3

Exhibit
The following diagram depicts monopolistically competitive firms.​
 
-Refer to Exhibit. In Graph B, a profit-maximizing (loss-minimizing) firm will experience a ____ at output quantity ____.

Accepted Answer

At output quantity q1, the firm is experiencing a loss.

Question 10

A natural monopolist will voluntarily choose to produce at the point where P = MC.

Accepted Answer

A natural monopolist will not voluntarily produce where price equals marginal cost (P = MC) because it would not cover its average total costs, leading to losses. Instead, it typically produces where marginal cost equals marginal revenue (MC = MR) to maximize profits.

Question 11

Perfectly competitive firms and monopolists are different because

Accepted Answer

In perfect competition, firms are price takers and produce where marginal cost (MC) equals price (P). A monopolist, however, maximizes profit by producing where price (P) is greater than marginal cost (MC).

Question 14

​Exhibit
 
-Refer to Exhibit. The profit-maximizing firm will produce at what level of output?

Accepted Answer

The profit-maximizing firm will produce at the output level where marginal cost equals marginal revenue. In the exhibit, this occurs at output level Q1.

Question 15

​Exhibit
 
-Refer to Exhibit. If the firm is profit maximizing, the region bounded by CADE represents:

Accepted Answer

The region CADE represents total profits for a profit-maximizing firm, as it is the area between the total revenue and total cost curves.

Question 16

-Refer to Exhibit. The socially efficient...

Question 17

​Exhibit
 
-Refer to Exhibit. The profit-maximizing firm's total revenue is indicated in the diagram as area:

Accepted Answer

The total revenue for a profit-maximizing firm is calculated as the price times the quantity sold, which is represented by the area 0ADQ₁ in the diagram.

Question 18

​Exhibit
 
-Refer to Exhibit. Total cost when the monopolist is maximizing profits is indicated by area:

Accepted Answer

The monopolist is maximizing profits when marginal cost (MC) equals marginal revenue (MR). At this point, the total cost is equal to the area under the average total cost (ATC) curve up to the quantity produced. This area is represented by triangle 0CEQ1.

Question 19

​Exhibit
 
-Refer to Exhibit. The welfare loss due to monopoly is indicated in the diagram as area:

Accepted Answer

The answer of ​Exhibit
 
-Refer to Exhibit. The welfare loss...

Question 20

​Exhibit
 
-Refer to Exhibit. The profit-maximizing firm will produce at what level of output?

Accepted Answer

The profit-maximizing firm will produce at the level of output where marginal cost equals marginal revenue. In the exhibit, this occurs at Q1.
