To maximize profit, the perfectly competitive firm charges a price equal to the marginal cost while the monopolist charges a price greater than the marginal cost.

The monopolist will select the profit-maximizing level of output where MR = MC, and then charge the price for that quantity of output as determined by the market demand curve. If that price is above average cost, the monopolist earns positive profits.

In a monopolistically competitive market, the rule for maximizing profit is to set MR = MC and the price is higher than marginal revenue, not equal to it because the demand curve is downward sloping.

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed costs= $20,000

Break-even point in units= 20,000 / (28 - 17)

Break-even point in units= 1,818 units

<u>Now, the profit for 1,500 units:</u>

Loss= 1,500*11 - 20,000= -$3,500
