Question

Sean is a monopolist who operates a business rigging tablets to run twice as fast as the original specifications. If sean charges $40, he would have 10 customers, but if he lowers the price to $37, he would have 11 customers. What is the marginal revenue of the 11th customer?.

Answer 1

The answer is $7 because Marginal revenue is the change in total revenue from 10 customers ($400) to 11 customers ($407)  How a monopolist maximizes profits

How does a monopolist determine its profit-maximizing level of output How does it determine the price that it charges?

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.

How a monopolist maximizes profits

 Because Chuck, a sole commercial airplane operator in small isolated town, has no  competition, he has complete control of market price of air travel in his small tone

 Reduced price → increase in ticket sales

 Monopoly maximizes profit by choosing an amount of profit in which marginal revenue  equals marginal cost (MR= MC)  Since Chuck must reduce his price to sell more units, he has an incentive to sell a  smaller quantity than a perfective competitive company
