The maximum price that can be asked for the new jPad model is $2,000 at which point they would sell 0 units. It costs Pear $600 to manufacturer and deliver these jPads to their stores. Determine the optimal price for this new jPad, which can be assumed to operate in a monopoly (at least upon introduction).

Respuesta :

Answer: $700

Explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, the optimal price for this new jPad, which can be assumed to operate in a monopoly will be calculated thus:

P = 2000+Q

TR = P × Q

TR = (2000 + Q) × Q

TR = 2000Q + Q²

MR = 2000 + 2Q

MC = 600

Since marginal revenue equals to marginal cost, this will be:

MR = MC

2000+2Q = 600

2Q = 2000 - 600

2Q = 1400

Q = 1400/2

Q = 700
