An investor observes that there is no car polish service available in the town that he has recently moved to and decides to open a shop offering this service. The estimated market demand for the car polish service is given by P = 300 – 5Q. The total cost of the car polish service is TC = 5Q2 +100 and the marginal cost is MC = 10Q.

If the investor engages in perfect price discrimination, how many car polish services will he offer? What would be the deadweight loss?

What will be will be the profit maximizing price and quantity if the investor is not allowed to price discriminate, and is forced to charge a uniform price to all the customers? What will be the profit, deadweight loss and consumer surplus?
