On both diagrams you should draw a line up from output Q to the AR line to derive the price at which the business is selling its products. The AC curve is drawn last and this determines whether or not the firm is making abnormal profit or a loss. To draw a loss making firm position the AC curve above so that at output Q the level of average cost is greater than average revenue. Similarly to illustrate a firm making abnormal profit simply draw the AC curve below the AR curve at output level Q. A monopoly firm making a normal profit could be illustrated by positioning the AC curve so that it touches the AR curve at output Q. </span></p></section><div class="greenBg"><h4><em><img alt="" src="../../../ib/economics/images/costs-and-revenue/profit-and-rvenue-graph-2.jpg" style="width: 320px; height: 320px; float: right;">Key terms:</em></h4><p><strong>Profit maximising </strong>level of output<strong> </strong>- where MC=MR</p><p><strong>Revenue maximising </strong>level of output<strong> </strong>- where MR = 0</p><p><strong>Sales maximising </strong>level of output<strong> </strong>-<strong> </strong>where AC=AR.</p></div><p>Available as a PDF file at: <a href="../../../media/ib/economics/files/theory-of-the-firm/profit-and-revenue-in-monopoly.pdf.html" target="_blank" title="Activities"><img class="ico" src="../../../thinkib/icons/activities.png"> Revenue and profit maximisation</a> </p><div class="pinkBg"><h4><strong>Activity 1</strong></h4><p>Watch the following short video and then illustrate the points on the diagram which represent the profit maximising, revenue maximising and sales maximising levels of output.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/UBssAwUoWdA" width="640"></iframe></p></div><section class="tib-hiddenbox"><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"><img alt="" src="../../../ib/economics/images/costs-and-revenue/blank-monopoly-diagram-with-answers.jpg" style="width: 300px; height: 300px; float: right;">Profit maximising: MC=MR (A)</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;">Revenue maximising: MR=0 (B)</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;">Sales maximising: AC=AR (C)</span></p></section><div class="pinkBg"><h4>Activity 2</h4><p>Complete the following table by filling in the blanks.

Many public sector businesses, for example government services, also choose to maximise revenue than profit because their primary aim is normally prioritising the service provided rather than profits. </span></section></div><div class="pinkBg"><h4><strong>Activity 3: TOK link</strong></h4><p>Which output level provides the optimum level for consumers?</p><section class="tib-hiddenbox"><p><span style="color:#FF0000;">This all depends on an individuals point of view. Many economists, politicians and consumers would argue (with justification) that the pursuit of profit rarely benefits any stakeholders other than the shareholders and that consumers would be better served by a firm maximising its revenue. In this way the consumer would normally enjoy higher levels of output and lower prices.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;">On the other hand others might argue (equally convincingly) that higher profits are necessary to encourage entrepreneurs to take risks and also to provide the funds required to invest in research and development, including product development. </span></p></section></div><div class="greenBg"><div><h4><strong>Activity 4: Link to the assessment</strong></h4><p>Examples of relevant paper one question include:</p><p><strong>Part (a) question</strong></p><p>Explain how the creation of monopoly may increase the welfare loss in a society. <em>[10 marks]</em></p><section class="tib-hiddenbox"><div><p><strong><span style="color:#FF0000;">Command term: Explain</span></strong></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"><em>Key terms to define: welfare loss, monopoly power. </em></span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"><em><img alt="" src="../../../ib/economics/images/costs-and-revenue/mono-pc-g2.jpg" style="width: 320px; height: 320px; float: right;">Responses should also include the following:</em></span><span style="color:#FF0000;"></span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;">A brief explanation of how monopolies are able to use their dominant position in order to gain abnormal profits. Welfare loss, sometimes called deadweight loss occurs when the welfare of the society is not maximised, with firms producing below the allocatively efficient level, where MC = AR. <span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;">A recognition that in monopoly we normally assume that prices are higher and output lower due to the monopolist restricting supply to force prices (AR) above marginal cost. This is illustrated by the diagram showing equilibrium price (Pm) above the socially optimum level and output at Q2, below the allocatively efficient level of Q1. The level of abnormal profit enjoyed by the monopolist is made at the expense of the consumers, who are forced to pay a higher price than the marginal cost of producing the product. </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;">Examples of excessive profit making by monopolies, for example the excessive profits made by some pharmaceutical firms, who have reportedly driven up the prices of vital life saving drugs in situations where they have been able to establish a monopoly position.</span></p></div></section><p><strong>Part (b) question</strong></p><p>Using real world examples, examine the role of barriers to entry in helping monopolies earn abnormal profit in both the short run and the long run. <em>[15 marks]</em></p><section class="tib-hiddenbox"><div><p><strong><span style="color:#FF0000;">Command term: Examine</span></strong></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"><em>Key terms to define: abnormal profit, barrier to entry, short run, long run. </em></span></p><p><em>Real world examples might include industries where the small number of firms operating in the market have successfully restricted access to the market by high entry barriers e.g. oil exploitation business, soft drinks companies (coke and pepsi) as well as examples of businesses that have maintained a virtual monopoly over a local market.</em></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"><img alt="" src="../../../ib/economics/images/costs-and-revenue/lr-monopolistic-competition.jpg" style="width: 300px; height: 300px; float: left;"><em>Responses should also include the following:</em></span><span style="color:#FF0000;"></span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;">In all market structures businesses in the short run, though a combination of market conditions and external circumstances, will find themselves in a position where the business is making abnormal profit. </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;">In perfectly competitive markets the absence of entry barriers will mean that the business returns to normal profit in the long run as new firms enter the market and force down the equilibrium price. </span><span style="color:#FF0000;"> However, In monopoly the abnormal excessive profits can be retained because firms in those industries are able to maintain high barriers to entry which prevents new entrants from joining the industry and maintains market supply at the same level. </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;">Similarly when the industry is facing difficult trading conditions and making a loss or even normal profit the monopolist is able to force up prices by restricting supply.
