If consumers have different elasticities of demand, the monopoly can charge a higher price to consumers with inelastic demand and a lower price to consumers with elastic demand.<\/p>\n<p>For example, suppose a monopoly has two markets, Market A and Market B. In Market A, the demand for the monopoly&#8217;s good is inelastic. This means that consumers in Market A are not very responsive to changes in price. In Market B, the demand for the monopoly&#8217;s good is elastic. This means that consumers in Market B are very responsive to changes in price.<\/p>\n<p>The monopoly can charge a higher price in Market A than in Market B. This is because consumers in Market A are not very responsive to changes in price. They will still buy the good even if the price is high. Consumers in Market B, on the other hand, are very responsive to changes in price. If the price is too high, they will not buy the good.<\/p>\n<p>By charging different prices in different markets, the monopoly can increase its profits.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Subscribe on YouTube<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.2 (Yoast SEO v23.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>&#039;Discriminating Monopoly&#039;
