The market for EpiPens Consider the pharmaceutical company Mylan that produces epinephrine injection devices called EpiPens. In the presence of other firms producing substitutes for this good, the price of EpiPens is $150. Now suppose that competitors to Mylan no longer produce epinephrine injection devices, so Mylan now has pricing power in this market. As the economist on staff at Mylan, you are charged with the task of figuring out what your company's new pricing strategy should be. A-Z The following graph shows the marginal cost (MC), which is assumed to be constant, and the average total cost (ATC) of Mylan. The graph also shows the demand curve (D) for EpiPens and the marginal revenue curve (MR) once the firm has market power. On the graph, use the grey point (star symbol) to indicate the quantity of EpiPens demanded if Mylan continues to charge $150. Dashed drop lines will automatically extend to both axes. 1000 900 800 QD at $150 O PRICE (Dollars per Epipen) 700 600 Profit Max 500 400 ATC at Profit Max 300 200 ATC Profit 100 O G Ing.cengage.com C NelsonBrain - My Home Mind Tap - Cengage Learning Chegg Customer Service Phone Number & Help Center | Chegg.com CENGAGE | MINDTAP Q Search this course K Rabeesha v Article Analysis 2: Market Power and the Epipen X On the graph, use the grey point (star symbol) to indicate the quantity of EpiPens demanded if Mylan continues to charge $150.

Then use the green rectangle (triangle symbols) to shade the area indicating the firm's economic profit. Save & Continue Continue without saving
