Answer to Question 1

The statement is false. Marginal revenue is less than price for a monopolist (at every level of output except for the first unit). This is due to the fact that the demand curve facing a monopolist is downward sloping. When a monopolist increases output by one unit, he must lower the price on all units sold. This means that the increase in revenue will be less than the price of the good.

Answer to Question 2

D
