A firm has invented a new beverage called Slops.It doesn't taste very good,but it gives people a craving for Lawrence Welk's music and Professor Johnson's jokes.Some people are willing to pay money for this effect,so the demand for Slops is given by the equation q = 18 - p.Slops can be made at zero marginal cost from old-fashioned macroeconomics books dissolved in bathwater.But before any Slops can be produced,the firm must undertake a fixed cost of $86.Since the inventor has a patent on Slops,it can be a monopolist in this new industry.
