This document contains lecture slides about monopoly. It discusses how a profit-maximizing monopolist determines the quantity to produce by setting marginal revenue equal to marginal cost. It also discusses how the monopolist's profit is determined, the welfare cost of monopoly due to deadweight loss, and how perfect price discrimination allows a monopolist to capture consumer surplus as profit without creating deadweight loss. Finally, it notes that in reality, perfect price discrimination is not possible so firms instead segment customers into groups based on observable traits related to willingness to pay.
