Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

The monopolist must lower its price to sell more. Two things happen when a monopolist lowers its price. First, revenue will tend to rise as the monopolist sells more units and second, revenue tend to fall because less revenue is received from each unit than the amount received at the higher price. The total effect on total revenue could be an increase, a decrease, or no change in total revenue.
