Questions

The fоllоwing questiоns refer to the grаph of а monopolist shown below The figure shows а graph with a horizontal axis labeled Quantity, a vertical axis labeled Price, and an origin labeled zero. Four quantities appear on the horizontal axis and are labeled, from left to right, Q sub one, Q sub 2, Q sub 3, and Q sub 4. Five prices appear on the vertical axis and are labeled, from bottom to top, P sub one, P sub 2, P sub 3, P sub 4, and P sub 5. There are two downward-sloping straight lines, two curves, and six points on the graph. The leftmost downward-sloping line is labeled Marginal Revenue and begins near the top of the vertical axis, above P sub 5, and moves down and to the right, passes through a point labeled V at Q sub one and P sub one, then passes through the horizontal axis at Q sub 2, and ends below the horizontal axis. The rightmost downward-sloping line is labeled Demand and begins at the same point on the vertical axis as the Marginal Revenue line, moves down and to the right, passes through a point labeled R at Q sub 1 and P sub 5, then passes through a point labeled S at Q sub 2 and P sub 4, then passes through a point labeled T at Q sub 3 and P sub 3, then passes through a point labeled U at Q sub 4 and P sub 2, continues on, and ends in the right side of the graph, above the horizontal axis and to the right of Q sub 4. The two curves begin above the horizontal axis and to the right of the vertical axis. The curve labeled Marginal Cost begins to the left of Q sub one and below P sub one, curves up and to the right, intersects the curve labeled Average Total Cost and the Marginal Revenue line at point V, continues up and to the right, intersects the Demand line at point T, and continues on. The Average Total Cost curve begins to the left of the start of the Marginal Cost curve, close to P sub 3, curves down and to the right, intersects the Marginal Cost curve and Marginal Revenue line at point V, then curves up and to the right, intersects the Demand line at point U, and ends to the right of and below the Marginal Cost curve. A point labeled W is at Q sub one and P sub 2. If the government regulates the monopolist to set price equal to average total cost, it will establish the price at
