Suppose that Sony is a monopolist in the market for games consoles having been the first company to develop a console. Each console costs €400 to produce. The inverse demand schedule for games consoles is p(Q) = 2400-300Q, where p denotes unit price, in €, and Q denotes quantity demanded. Assume that Sony must charge a uniform price to all consumers and can only sell whole consoles, i.e. cannot sell 2.5 or 4.2 consoles.
