Question

Suppose
that Sony is a monopolist in the market for games consoles having been the
first company to develop a console. Each console costs €400 to produce. The inverse demand schedule for games
consoles is p(Q) = 2400-300Q, where p denotes unit price, in €, and Q denotes
quantity demanded. Assume that Sony must charge a uniform price to all
consumers and can only sell whole consoles, i.e. cannot sell 2.5 or 4.2
consoles. 
(i)
Derive, and show on a table, Sony’s total and marginal revenue for all possible
output levels. From this, draw Sony’s demand, marginal revenue and marginal
cost curves
