- (Market Power) In a monopoly market, the demand function is Q = 200 - P/2, while the total cost function is C = 285 + 20Q. 4a. Calculate the balance of P, Q, and Profit. 4b. Calculate the market power (Lerner Index) of the company. Thank you for the help Bartleby!Assume that Gas & Minerals is the only copper mining firm in Chile. The national demand for copper in thousands of tonnes per month is: q^d(p) = 15 - pThe total costs in millions of dollars are: c(q) = 5q(a) What would be the profit-maximising level of production for this firm? Determine the monopoly price and quantify the profits. Graph the demand, marginal revenue and marginal cost, identifying their values along with determining the social loss generated and identifying it in the graph above. Assume now that due to a bad internal restructuring, the operations manager was fired and a professional with little mining experience was hired. The new manager does not know environmental protocol and mining waste (tailings) has gotten out of control and has been dumped into a river. This generated a negative externality on copper production. The estimated damage is US$5 million per 1,000 tonnes.(b) Obtain the social marginal cost of this mining activity.(c) What level of production will…The names of the compagny is H20 A compagny of water production and distribution company is in a monopoly situation. it's total cost function is given by: CT (q) = q² + 10q where q represents the quantities produced in millions of m ^ 3 of water. She is faced with the following request p = 50-4q with p the price in cents. Please answer the following question a) Calculate the price, quantity and monopoly profit of H20 b) Represent the demand curves of average cost, marginal cost and marginal revenue of H20 c) H20 learns from the news that a potential entrant wants to enter the market by selling 5 units at a unit cost of 20. Determine the price level below which H20 can set a limit price Then check whether the monopoly price calculated in question 1 can be considered a limited price d) Would H20 remain profitable if the entrant were to enter the market anyway ? (for this you have to calculate the market price that will rise as a result of the entry of the competitor) e) The entrant…
- Natural-ExP is a unique company that is dedicated to making day trips to the Nevado de Toluca. The service includes transportation, food and guide service. Being the number of tickets sold, if the cost function of serving a new customer is Cmg = 20q, the marginal revenue function Img = 600−40q and the demand is q = (600 − p) /20. Under this scenario, what is the price of the excursion. $400 $600 $300 $100CHP is a monopoly manufactorer who faces tbge following demand curve for its product in two different country: United States ( US) and New Zealand (NZ). US = Q(us) = 200 - P(us) and new zealand: Q(nz) = 150 - 1/2 P(nz). in which Q denotes quantity and p denotes prices. the firm also faces cost function of c(Q) = 0.25 (Qus + Qnz)^2. Find the prices, pUS and pNZ, which maximise CHP profits, assuming no capacity constraints.You are the manager of a monopoly, and your analysts have estimated your demand and cost functionsas P = 300 − 3Q and C(Q) = 2, 000 + 2Q2, respectively.(a) What price-quantity combination maximizes your firm’s profits?(b) Calculate the maximum profits.(c) Is demand elastic, inelastic, or unit elastic at the profit maximizing price-quantity combination?(d) What price-quantity combination maximizes revenue?(e) Calculate the maximum revenues.(f) Is demand elastic, inelastic, or unit elastic at the revenue maximizing price-quantity combination?
