(Q1)

Giga Gadget (GG) is a monopoly in the market for gadgets. The demand function for gadgets is given by Q=12P/(square root A), where Q is the quantity of gadgets, P is the price of a gadget, and A is the advertising spending of GG. Production cost of GG is C(Q)=Q2 . Currently the advertising spending of GG is A=4 . Your job is to determine the optimal quantity of gadgets GG should produce. Write down the problem you need to solve, as an unconstrained optimization problem with only one variable, Q . (Assume that your job is only to find the optimal quantity, and you have no say in advertising decisions. That is, A is an exogenous variable for you.}

(Q2)
