Answer:

The correct answer is: zero; zero.

Explanation:

If a monopolist discovers a way to perfectly discriminate, it means that the monopolist will charge equal to the willingness to pay from each consumer.

The consumer surplus is the difference between the maximum price a consumer is willing to pay and the price it actually pays.

Since each consumer is paying price equal to its willingness to pay, the consumer surplus will be zero.

There will be no efficiency costs. The monopolist will sell output where the maximum price the consumer is willing to pay is equal to or greater than the marginal cost. So all efficient trades will occur, there will be no efficiency costs.

In 5-10 sentences, answer the Question; What is a Market Economy?
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

A market economy is an economic system in which the decisions regarding investment, production and distribution are guided by the price signals created by the forces of supply and demand. The major characteristic of a market economy is the existence of factor markets that play a dominant role in the allocation of capital and the factors of production.Market economies range from minimally regulated free-market and laissez-faire systems where state activity is restricted to providing public goods and services and safeguarding private ownership, to interventionist forms where the government plays an active role in correcting market failures and promoting social welfare. State-directed or dirigist economies are those where the state plays a directive role in guiding the overall development of the market through industrial policies or indicative planning—which guides yet does not substitute the market for economic planning—a form sometimes referred to as a mixed economy.
