# Answer to Question #49400 in Microeconomics for susie

Question #49400
Suppose that a monopolist is producing a level of output such that AVC = $6, AFC =$4, P = $8, MR =$10, and MC = $6. Based on this information, the firm is realizing: a loss which could be reduced by reducing price and increasing output a profit which could be increased by reducing price and increasing output a loss which could be reduced by increasing price and reducing output a profit which could be increased by increasing price and reducing output Expert's answer If a monopolist is producing a level of output such that AVC =$6, AFC = $4, P =$8, MR = $10, and MC =$6, then its total profit is:
TP = (P - ATC)*Q, and as ATC = AVC + AFC = 6 + 4 = $10 &gt; P =$8, so the firm faces losses, and as MR &gt; MC (10 &gt; 6), then a monopolist should decrease price increasing the output.
So, based on this information, the firm is realizing:
a) a loss which could be reduced by reducing price and increasing output
