Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. This has been solved and attached.
Note that the net benefits was calculated as:
= Marginal benefit - $200
b. Looking at the table and information provided in the attachment, we would see that no company offer to build the museum because since their cost of $1000 can't be covered by the revenue generated. The highest revenue gotten for the single price monopolist is $760 and this can't even cover their cost.
c. Based on the scenario given in (c), the highest revenue the price discriminating monopolist would make is $1200 and coupled with the fact that the cost is $1000, the maximum bid that a private company would make to supply the museum to Smallsville is $200 ($1200 - $1000)
