Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

The monopoly charges a higher price and produces less output than in a perfectly competitive market. The monopoly creates a deadweight loss by producing less than the efficient quantity of output, whereas a perfectly competitive market produces the efficient quantity of output and so has no deadweight loss. The monopoly decreases consumer surplus and increases producer surplus from what they would be if the market is perfectly competitive.
