Question:

Assume that the following marginal costs exist in catfish production:

Quantity produced 10 11 12 | 13 14 15 16 17 (Units per day) Marginal cost 10 12 | 14 16 18 $4 6 (per unit)


(a) Graph the MC curve.
(b) Use the data on market demand below and graph the demand and MR curves on the same graph.
Price (per unit) ........................................... $25 24 23 22 21 20 19 18
Quantity demanded (units per day) ..............10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17
(c) At what rate of output is MR = MC?
(d) What price will a monopolist charge for that much output?
