Infоrmаtiоn fоr questions 34-40 The figure shows the Demаnd curve for а monopoly. This monopolist has no fixed cost, and a constant Marginal Cost = 0.5 (the Marginal Cost curve is also shown). Note that one horizontal grid space = 5 units, while one vertical grid space = $0.25. For all numeric questions, only the the exact answer will be accepted. Adhere to the following convention, which is necessary to get exact answers: if a line seems to cross an intersection of the grid, then by convention assume that it does. For example, the choke point of the demand curve seems to be where P=3, Q=0, so assume that that is the exact choke point, that is, that when the price P=3, then the demand is Q=0, exactly. If a question cannot be answered with the information given, enter the number 0.   Calculate the Deadweight Loss of this monopoly. Even though it is a loss, you may enter it as a positive number. 

Infоrmаtiоn fоr questions 4-8 The following figure shows three isoquаnts for а firm that produces chocolate, with units of labor on the horizontal axis, and units of capital on the vertical axis. Each isoquant is labeled with the output of chocolate that its combinations of labor and capital produce, in tons of chocolate. Note that each grid spacing is 0.25 on both axes. Also shown are some auxiliary lines in solid black. The steepest line has slope =1, and the three flattest lines all have slope = 1/3 (all of these slopes are in absolute value, by the way). Note that each of the auxiliary lines is tangent to an isoquant, and that its tangency point is marked with a dot. For the numerical answers, only exact answers are accepted. For that purpose, adopt the convention: if a line seems to cross a grid point, assume that it does so exactly. For example, the Q=20 isoquant ends at point (L=8, K=1), exactly. Starting from a wage of 10 and a rental price of 10, suppose that the rental price increases to 30. Calculate the change in the amount of capital that the firm employs, in order to keep producing 20 tons of chocolate at minimum cost. Again, this can be an increase or a decrease, make sure to enter a positive number if the firm uses more capital, and a negative number if the firm uses less capital.
