shift to the left.
If a monopolist raises his prices above marginal cost, he will increase his profits. This seems like a good thing for the monopolist. However, the down side is that it reduces the well-being of consumers. Most times, the harm to consumers is greater than the gain of the monopolist.
The demand curve faced by a pure monopolist is of downward sloping in shape.
Monopolist profit refers to the excess earnings that a monopolistic firm generates by being the sole provider of a good or service in a market. Unlike firms in competitive markets, a monopolist can set prices above marginal costs, leading to higher profit margins. This profit arises from the lack of competition, allowing the monopolist to control supply and influence prices. Ultimately, monopolist profit can result in market inefficiencies and reduced consumer welfare.
A monopolist must lower its quantity relative to a competitive market to maximize its profits because the monopolist already controls and owns the largest share of the market.
The pure monopolist's market situation differs from that of a competitive firm in that the monopolist's demand curve is downsloping, causing the marginal-revenue curve to lie below the demand curve. Like the competitive seller, the pure monopolist will maximize profit by equating marginal revenue and marginal cost. Barriers to entry may permit a monopolist to acquire economic profit even in the long run.
(A) A monopolist produces on the inelastic portion of its demand. This is true because a monopolist maximizes profit where marginal revenue equals marginal cost, and inelastic demand allows the monopolist to raise prices without losing too many customers. However, (B) is not necessarily true, as a monopolist can incur losses in the short run, and (C) is incomplete, but typically, the more inelastic the demand, the closer marginal revenue will be to price.
