Given a cost function c(q) = 200 + 14q + 8q2, what is the marginal cost function?
Ā 

A) 14 + 16q

B) 14Q + 8q2

C) 200 + 8q2

D) 14 + 16q2

Problem 08-09. A monopolist's inverse demand function is P = 150 - 3Q. The company produces output at two facilities; the marginal cost of producing at facility 1 is MC1(Q1) = 6Q1, and the marginal cost of producing at facility 2 is MC2(Q2) = 2Q2.

a. Provide the equation for the monopolist's marginal revenue function. (Hint: Recall that Q1 + Q2 = Q) MR(Q) = - Q1 - Q2

b. Determine the profit-maximizing level of output for each facility. Output for facility 1: Output for facility 2.

c. Determine the profit-maximizing price.Ā

Two firms are ordered by the federal government to reduce their pollution levels. Firm A's marginal cost associated with pollution reduction is MC=150+3Q. Firm B's marginal cost associated with pollution reduction is MC=9Q. The marginal benefit of pollution reduction is MB=270.

a. What is the socially optimal level of each firm's pollution reduction?

b. Compare the social of three possible outcomes:

(1)require both firms to reduce pollution by the same amount.

(2) charge a common tax per unit of pollution.

(3) require both firms to reduce pollution by the same amount, but allow pollution permits to be bought and sold.
