7. Draw a monopoly's cost curves when they are making losses. Be sure to include MR, MC, d, and ATC. Show the profit-maximizing (aka loss-minimizing) quantity and price charged. Label the area that represents loss.

1. Place point E at the monopoly's profit maximizing price and quantity 2. Move the average total cost (ATC) curve to a position that depicts the monopoly earning a positive profit. 3. Place the area labeled Profit in the area of the graph that represents the monopoly's profit.

Below is a graph of a monopoly. First, move the orange point E to indicate the monopoly's loss-minimizing price and quantity. Then, shift the Average Total Cost (ATC) curve and Average Variable Cost (AVC) curve to show the monopoly operating at a loss. Finally, move the red Loss box to indicate the monopoly's total loss.

00:01 Hello everyone.
00:02 So, let us solve the discussion.
00:05 So, for this we have to make a diagram for it.
00:08 So, let us make a diagram.
00:26 So, there is a y -axis and there is a x -axis and there is a y -axis.
00:39 Here on the x -axis quantity is given and on y there is a price.
00:49 So, just make a 3, there is 4, there is 5, 6, 7, 8 and there is a 9.
01:09 So, same as we make on x -axis, we will make on y -axis too.
01:17 There is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, this is 8 and there is 9.
02:04 Let us make a mr and d line which is started from the 9 on y -axis.
02:17 So, mr line first.
02:20 So, it is a mr curve, it is a mr and the d demand line.
02:44 Now, the demand line, let us make a demand line.
02:50 So, it is a demand line which we will represent with the d.
02:58 Now, the mc curve which is start from the 0, from the origin point there is a mc curve and the average total cost line...
