Q

How do we find pricing for a competitive producer IOF?

A

MC = MVP

24
Q

How do we solve a quadratic equation?

A
25
Q

How do we find pricing for a monopsony?

A

Monopsony Q: MO = MVP
Monopsony P: MC @ Q we just found

26
Q

How do we multiply an individual’s demand curve out to an aggregate demand curve?

A

Must put the equation into the form X=___xz

27
Q

If a co-op is acting as a monopolist, how do we find member welfare?

A

CS + ((P(m)-MC)Q) + ((MC-AC)Q)

28
Q

What is minimum cost pricing (consumer co-op)?

A

AC = MC

29
Q

What is average cost pricing (consumer co-op)?

A

D = AC
*** P<MC here

30
Q

Consumer co-op pricing when members factor patronage into price?

A

AC = D
** P<MC at that point.

31
Q

MVP

A

MVP = MPP*Py

32
Q

NARP

A

NARP = ((Py*Y)-FC))/X

33
Q

How do we find the profit/patronage for a producer co-op?

A

(NARP - MVP)*Q

34
Q

TO = ?

A

Total Outlay = X * MC = X * P

35
Q

MO

A

Marginal Outlay = derivative of TO

36
Q

How do we find Q for a producer IOF?

A

MO = MVP

37
Q

What is NARP pricing for a producer co-op?

A

NARP = MC

38
Q

What is the demand equation for a producer co-op? Y is output /sold, X is input/bought.

A

Py=f(y)

39
Q

What is the supply equation for a producer co-op? Y is output/sold, X is input/bought.

A

Y = f(x) so Y = f(Px, Py)

40
Q

MPP = ?

A

MPP = derivative of Y
MPP = Change in Y / Change in X

41
Q

MVP = ?

A

MVP = MPP*Py

42
Q

How do we calculate member welfare with a producer co-op?

A

MW = ((Py * Y)-(Px * X)-FC) + ((Px * X)-Space under dx(X0))
MW = (Py * Y)-(space under dx(X0))-FC

43
Q

How do we find optimal membership for a consumer co-op?

A

Set D = MC = AC
- AC will be lowest
- MC won’t be higher than AC
- D will generally have to be a lot smaller than it currently is
you can take that price and put it back into the individual member demand curve - equal to the MVP from the individual production function before you multiply it by 24 to get aggregate demand. Then divide the total quantity you calculated at AC=MC by the individual or small x you calculated and that will tell you optimal membership.
Q (optimal membership)/X(individual)= M(ideal membership)

44
Q

Where do we find optimal membership with a producer co-op?

A

NARP = MVP = S

45
Q

How do we find TR for a producer co-op if we aren’t given an equation for it?

A

TR = P(y) * Q(y)

46
Q

When looking at a producer co-op, what is the Y=…X…. equation referring to?

A

TP

47
Q

How do we find the profit for a monopsony?

A

Profitmonopsony = (P(y) * Y)-(P(x) * X)-FC

48
Q

How do we find P for maximum pricing of a producer co-op?

A

Plug the Q we found at MVP=NARP back into either MVP or NARP. DO NOT PLUG IT INTO MC!

49
Q

If a co-op is acting as a monopolist, how do we find the total patronage?

A

((P-MC) * Q) + ((MC-AC) * Q)

50
Q

What is the value of import quota?

A

(Cost of Production - world price) * imports = import quota value

51
Q

What is the value of production quota?

A

(Cost of Production - Marginal Cost Price) * production quota = production quota value

52
Q

How do we determine how much will be imported in a quota system?

A

Imports = Qty D - Production Quota

53
Q

What’s the formula for import quota rent?

A

(Cost of Production - World Price) * (Qty D - Production Quota)
