thank you so much- i was about to cry 9 minutes ago, but now i think everything will be ok :)
Really same here also...😃😃😃
Same

Dear Professor,
This video is a gift for all who want to learn monopoly profit maximization, you did it in an easy and understandable way, now i can face my exam with ease.
Thanks a lot :), keep doing such good work.
To find where the demand curve crosses the x-axis, set P = 0 in the demand equation and solve for Q. For example, if P = 130 - 0.50Q, plug 0 in for P to get: 0 = 130 - 0.50Q. Now, solving for Q, we get 130 = 0.50Q, which simplifies to Q = 130/0.50 = 260.
Mate, this is great I spend 4 hours looking how to use MC to find price and you are the first one that made understand it, cheers to you ☺ .
Thanks for the videos Professor, you have really helped me understand stuff for my upcoming Microeconomics exam! One quick note: On the DWL calculation, the base of the DWL triangle is 110-40, not 110-90. So, the DWL turns out to be 70x8/2=280$. Other than that, great and informative vid as always!
My man you are a great human
This video is a life saver. Neither the textbook nor professor for my econ class would explain how to find the cs and ps but this video explained it super well 🙌🏽
Thank you so much Sir, amazing video, I hope you have a great day
Thank you very much! It helped me a lot!!!
Thank you very much. Your videos are very helpful especially before exams. You should have 1 million views.
Awesome explaination
thanks so much really helped
this video is so clear, thank you for offering it
TYSM you saved me!
That was a great video my man helped me a tonn!!
Thank you for a very thorough and understandable explanation. I have my exams tomorrow, and neither the text book nor the teacher found it worth mentioning how you find the point on the price axis that you need to calculate producer's surplus!
your video is better than my professor’s lecture😂 thank you
Thank you so much for such a clear and concise video. You've saved hours of frustration trying to learn from textbooks that offer no explanation
Thanks alot!
U rock dude
Thanks a lot!
nice vid, thanks a lot
THANK YOU
So clear and precise. Thank you very much!
life saver, best ever
Incredible video
Thank you!
Thank you very much
You are welcome!
Thanks helped heaps
Who else is watching this while taking a final #Zoomuniversity
Really helpful
Thank you!
perfectly explained, thank you
Oh...ur vdos are such a Life savior...😂😂👍...
Thank you!
Thank you, that was great!
Thank you very much, your explaination is much more easier than my teacher
Thanks very much. Huge help. You explained it well.
thanks
I think you have messed the marginal revenue function , the slope of MR should be double the slope of demand function p=130+2q. hence the mr=130+10q
Yes exactly!!!!!
He is not using 5, he is using 0.5, but he type it as ".5" (point five).
a godsend
perfect vedio
thank u 😭😭😭
Hello!, how do you explain if the monopoly is efficient or inefficient using this graph as an example?
Btw, super great video.. it is what i am looking for!! Thank you so much
The efficient level of output occurs where the marginal cost curve intersects the demand curve. At this intersection, the good's price will equal marginal cost or p = mc. The monopolist's output is inefficient because it produces less than the efficient level of output, charging a price that exceeds marginal cosr.
When you differentiate the TR i think we should get 130-10q
he said that it is 0.5 not 5 so it will be 130-q instead of 130-10q
what would happen if MC was only 2q without the +10??? someone please helpppp
life saver
when we derivate the TR the resualt of MR have error w/c means hand writting error i think 130-10Q
I thought the same too
that helped
I think there is a mistake in ascertaining the MR function above...since the TR function is 130q-5q². The derivative of 130q will be 130 and the derivative of 5q² becomes 10q so the MR function becomes 130-10q over there and the profit maximization quantity is 10 units this way
Oh now I got it
Yes .
that's 0.5q² not 5q²
Thankyou
Is it wrong when -0,5q^2/q= -q? Is it = -0,5q
i want to know how to find the loss of consumer surplus, but, i can't find it. is it deadweight loss is a loss of consumer surplus?
hmm what if the MC is a constant? where is the producer surplus?
(6:42) when you were calculating producer surplus, where did you get the 20 from?
Algoods, I figured it out.
@@aselamaryvosarogo3671 how
sorry but why MR crosses the x-axis at 130
If MC was just 10 and no 2q was there..what would u have done to find out the area of traingle for producer surplus...plz reply i have my exam in next 4 hours.

Dear Professor, there is a mistake for the derivation of marginal revenue the answer gotten ought to be 130-10q not 130-q... I guess that should be an oversight! Thank you. But the fact is i understand all the procedures. Kudos
The inverse demand is P = 130 - 0.5q. The decimal point in front of the 5 is hard to see in the video.
@@EconomicsinManyLessons Ohh Okay, Now I understand how the answer was derived. Thank you.
where did you get MR=130-q, ?but it would be MR=130-10q
Exactly
shouldnt the deadweight loss be .5(16)(8) * 2 because it is an equilateral triangle????????!??!?!?!?!?
Several videos left me confused. Not yours. (:
Thanks professor. But how differentiation of 5Qsquare equals Q???
its .5q squared not 5q
How can u use right angle triangle's formula in finding Deadweight loss???
www.mathsisfun.com/algebra/trig-area-triangle-without-right-angle.html
5q2 derived is 10q, why did he only put q?
it was 0.5 by 2=1
Mr will be 130 - 5q after differtiating w .r.t to q
sorry i am just wondering why the area of square --> PS: 20 x 40?
i think it will be (40-0) x (110-40)?
That says 90, not 40, so it's (110-90) (40-0)
Not square, its rectangle
MR will be
MR= 130-10q
How do you find the value for 260 where the demand curve crosses the x axis?
Set the inverse price function = to zero and solve for q.
Given p=130+.5q. let p=0 then 0=130+.5q by this q= 260
My final is in 20 mins. 👍
Can consumer surplus, producer surplus and deadweight loss be calculated by definite integration?
Yes. I hope to make a video using definite integrals to calculate those things.
If the mc is constant. Then¿
See here: ruclips.net/video/JC_YUji3Hio/видео.html
The derivative of the TC seems to be 130-10q .
LETI VICTOR EYISSA P = 130 - 0.5q, TR = 130q - 0.5q^2, MR = 130 - q.
Thanks for your time.
But what i was looking at was in getting the MR by getting the derivative of TR= 130q-5q2 , why is = 130-q instead of 130-10q since the last q is squared.
LETI VICTOR EYISSA There is a 1/2 (notice the decimal point in front of the five) in front of the q, so 2 x 0.5 = 2 x 1/2 = 1.
Yes...same question here!. It's derivative should be 130-10Q
Oh now am clear ..it's 0.5 Q not 5Q
Hii can you please tell me how to do the following question?
For a monopolistic firm, law of demand is p=50-x^2 and MC+1+x^2. Determine the consumer surplus at the price which the monopolist would like to fix?
1:24 *MR equation is 130-10q*
P = 130 - 0.5q; there is a decimal point in front of the 5, so MR = 130 - q.
how do you find 20 deadweight loss... (1/2)x(20)x(8)
yes sir how
110-90 = 20
thanks
How derivative of TR becomes 130-q but 130-10q i think
TR = 130Q - 0.5Q^2. There is a decimal point in front of the five.
what if the MC is a constant number?
In this video's first example, I use a constant MC and solve for the deadweight loss. The CS (area of triangle) = 0.5(800 - 480)60 and PS (is an area of rectangle with constant MC) = (480 - 160)40.
ruclips.net/video/7Wo4rZl81OM/видео.html
Thanks a lot.. I have already figured out for what i was looking for..
How did u get the 260
P = 130 - 0.5Q. Set P = 0 and solve for Q.
0 = 130 -0.5Q
0.5Q = 130
Q = 130/0.5= 260
how did you get MR...isn't supposed to be: 130 -10q
The inverse demand is P = 130 - 0.50Q...there is a one half in front of Q, not 5.
@@EconomicsinManyLessons thank you...I miss read the question...I took the .5 as 5
If MC is not given then what should we do ?
If you have a total cost function, you will need to take the derivative of it to get MC. If your example assumes MC = 0, set your MR equation equal to 0 and then solve for Q...you will find that the profit maximizing price and quantity will be at the midpoint of the demand curve.
@@EconomicsinManyLessons thanks for responding.
I'm sorry but wouldn't the derivative of TR with respect to q be 130-10q instead of 1330-q? You simply eliminate the 5 and don't consider that q was raised to the power of 2
This was 4 months ago so I assume you either got the answer or don't care anymore, but it was .5q, not 5q. Therefore raising .5 to the power of 2 gave 1q.
@@VestasCure .5 to the power of two calculates to 0.25
Can any one give equations for consumer surplus, producer surplus, deadweigh loss wothout graph
Hey i have a little question.... In the task i have to solve, my MC = -5 + 2 q how can I calculate the deadway loss now? I probably can't start with a negative :)
Maybe someone knows the answer
you have made a mistake in your calculations in 2:21 MR should be MR=130-10q so q =10 and p=80
its 0.5q sqaured not 5
Intersucks xD
U r doing differenation wrong
Its 0.5q squared lol not 5q squared
H
There are so many mistakes in here
1. Derivative of 5q^2 will be 10q
2. 5. 40 this guy has taken 20
Seriously! So many silly mistakes
The derivative in the video is for 0.5q^2, which is q. I don't understand your 2nd comment.
Thanks helped heaps
Thank you very much! It helped me a lot!!!
