Explanation / Answer

6) It is 1800 because perfect price discrimination will allow it to charge willingness to pay. Hence it will charge $700 for 1st unit, $600 for 2nd and $500 for 3rd

7) Then it will charge a single price which is $500 at 3 units. Total revenue will be 500x3 = $1500

8) As it is done in 6), total revenue is the sum of willingness to pay for 4 units which is 40 + 30 + 20 + 10 = $100. For 4 units price is $10 hence reveneu in case of single price monopolist is 4*10 = $40

9) TR is P x Q and its values are 0, 40, 60, 60, 40. Hence MR (q=3) = TR(q = 3) - TR (q = 2) = 60 - 40 = 20. MR (q=4) = TR(q = 4) - TR (q = 4) = 60 - 60 = 0. Option C

10) Since each additional unit is sold at its WTP, TR is 0, 40, 70, 90, 100. Hence MR for 3rd units = 70 - 40 = 30 and MR for q = 4 is 90 - 70 = 20. Option D
