Assume that builder XYZ is a monopoly in Sydney’s Southwest, who specialises in apartment construction. (a) Draw a diagram to illustrate XYZ making economic profits before the implementation of the hard lockdown in Sydney’s Southwest. On your diagram clearly indicate the quantity XYZ is choosing to produce and the price XYZ is choosing to charge. (b) Assuming costs remain constant and that that the construction industry is still allowed to operate normally, explain the impact of Sydney’s lockdown on builder XYZ’s demand from Q2 part (a). With the aid of a new diagram, discuss XYZ’s static profit or loss situation after these changes. Clearly indicate the quantity XYZ is choosing to produce and the price XYZ is choosing to charge.
