(b) With the aid of illustrations, show or identify the demand, marginal revenue and total revenue curves.
(c) Using your illustrations, state the maximum amount of total revenue-in US dollars-that can be derived.
(d) Suppose the demand curve for a monopolist is 600 -P, and the marginal revenue function is MR = 600 -2Q. If the monopolist has a constant marginal and total per unit cost of $300: What is the profit of the firm (in US dollars)? Plot the average revenue, marginal revenue, and total revenue curves.
