Question Details

Bill wants as much total revenue as possible. Which price would he choose 



1. Bob, Bill, Ben, and Brad Baxter have just made a documentary movie about their basketball
team. They are thinking about making the movie available for download on
the Internet, and they can act as a single-price monopolist if they choose to. Each
time the movie is downloaded, their Internet service provider charges them a fee of
$4. The Baxter brothers are arguing about which price to charge customers per download.
The accompanying table shows the demand schedule for their film.
