Refer to Figure 14-8. From the monopoly graph above, identify the following:
The profit maximizing price
The profit maximizing quantity
The area representing deadweight loss
The area representing the transfer of consumer surplus to the monopoly

Answer :

The profit maximizing price is Pa and the profit maximizing quantity is Qa.

How to illustrate the information?

You must first identify the profit-maximizing quantity where the monopoly's marginal revenue and cost are equal before moving up to the demand curve at that quantity in order to calculate the price it charges.

The demand curve's uppermost point represents the monopoly's price point where profits are maximized. Therefore, Pa is the price.

The marginal revenue and marginal cost of the monopolist are equaled to get the level of output that maximizes profits. the number that will maximize profits is Q1.

The surplus that would have been accessible (to either consumers or producers) under perfect competition is referred to as deadweight loss and is lost when a single-price monopolist exists. The combined area (C+D) shows a decrease of dead weight.

Due to the monopolist's higher prices than fully competitive businesses, Area A represents the market share that consumers have transferred to the monopolist producer. The consumer surplus, which measures the gap between willingness to pay and the price paid, declines as a result.
