Examples on Monopoly and Third Degree Price Discrimination
... Will the profit maximizing output change if the firm has a productive capacity greater than 40? The answer is obviously no. Without capacity constraints the firm, by producing QM , realizes profits higher than profits associated to any other output level. Since with a capacity constraint higher than ...

What we do know: Chris would give up more money (or soft drinks) to get one more candy than Jody would. ii) Yes, because their marginal values are different. iii) Jody sells candy to Chris for soft drinks. Thus, Jody’s candy holdings decrease. Thus ...

Then the monopolist can sell totally Q2 units. His revenue is [P1xQ1+P2x(Q2-Q10)]. In case that he can set on ...
