Explanation / Answer

For a monopolist, the optimal quantity is determined by the rule MR = MC. This gives Q = 117 units.

Similarly, the optimal price is found at this quantity on the demand function which is found at $24 per unit

Total revenue receives = price x quantity = 117 x 24 = $2808

Total cost is given by ATC x quantity = 117 x 20 = $2304

Profit = TR – TC = $2808 - $2304 = $468
