Answer:
raises;larger;decrease;always.
Explanation:
Consider the relationship between monopoly pricing and the price elasticity of demand. If demand is inelastic and a monopolist raises its price, quantity would fall by a larger percentage than the rise in price, causing profit to decrease. Therefore, a monopolist will always produce a quantity at which the demand curve is elastic because he or she will be maximizing profits.
A monopolistic market is a type of market structure that is typically characterized by a single supplier or seller of a particular product without any competition from any other in the market. The features of a monopolistic market are;
- Single seller.
- Profit maximizer.
- Price maker.
- High barriers to entry for others.
- Price discrimination.
- No close substitutes or competition.
Answer: $920,000
Explanation:
Given the following :
Beginning balance = $800,000
Brown's earning = $600,000
Casg Dividend = $200,000
Dexter's portion of brown's outstanding shares = 3000/ 10000 = 0.3
Therefore, Dexter's investment account is as follows :
Beginning balance + (earning × 0.3) - (Dividend × 0.3)
$800,000 + ($600,000 × 0.3) - ($200,000 × 0.3)
$800,000 + $180,000 - $60,000
$980000 - $60000 = 920000
Answer:
A) Janice will purchase 3 pounds of potatoes since she will buy them until her consumer surplus ≤ 0. The fourth pound of potatoes costs $1, and Janice is willing to pay only $0.30, so her consumer surplus s negative (-$0.70).
Consumer surplus is the difference between the price that a customer is willing and able to pay for a good and the good actual price.
B) If Janice only had $2 to spend, she would buy 2 pounds of potatoes, since her consumer surplus is positive at 2 pounds.
first pound costs $1, and Janice is willing to pay $1.50, consumer surplus = $0.50
second pound costs $1, and Janice is willing to pay $1.14, consumer surplus = $0.14
