P Market dend cune MC wi whity MC wih tdy 2. Consider a market with a monopoly shown in the figure below. Suppose the government provides a subsidy to cosumers that achieves the efficient outcome. Use diagrams to illustrate: (1) consumer surplus; (i) producer surplus; (ii) government cost; and (iv) social surplus with this subsidy. 3. Consider a market with a monopoly. The market demand curve, as well as the monopoly's marginal revenue and marginal cost curves are shown below. The shaded area indicates the producer surplus at the monopoly outcome. Find another area that also represents the producer surplus at the monopoly outcome.
