Tаble 17-2Imаgine а small tоwn in which оnly twо residents, Abby and Brad, own wells that produce safe drinking water. Each week Abby and Brad work together to decide how many gallons of water to pump. They bring water to town and sell it at whatever price the market will bear. To keep things simple, suppose that Abby and Brad can pump as much water as they want without cost so that the marginal cost is zero. The weekly town demand schedule and total revenue schedule for water is shown in the table below: Quantity(in gallons) Price Total Revenue(and Total Profit) 0 $12 $0 1 $11 $11 2 $10 $20 3 $9 $27 4 $8 $32 5 $7 $35 6 $6 $36 7 $5 $35 8 $4 $32 9 $3 $27 10 $2 $20 11 $1 $11 12 $0 $0 Refer to Table 17-2. If this market for water were perfectly competitive instead of monopolistic, what would be the price for water?
