First Degree Price Discrimination and its Effect on Efficiency in a Monopolistic Market

This lesson will define price discrimination, outline the conditions necessary for it to occur, and explain the different degrees of price discrimination. We will then illustrate the effect of perfect price discrimination and attempt to conclude whether or not it is good overall for society by looking at the effect it has on consumers and producers.

Your series of pure monopoly was so well explained, but what's even better was the fact that there were barely any confusion for me. Thank you for these video lectures as they will definitely benefit me on my studies for my econ final.

[@bryanxiao]

what a great video!!!! liked and subscribed!!!!!

[@reginaldoowonoobama4400]

great teacher, please keep letting us students smile all the time while we enjoy your lectures, we so much appreciate your effort.

[@JasonWelker]

Any firm with price making power may be able to price discriminate. For example, movie theaters are usually not monopolists, but charge different prices to different consumers for the same product. So yes, oligopolists MAY be able to price discriminate, even ones in competition with other firms!

[@lion52193]

could the first degree price operate and achieve the same economic outcome as the perfect competition market?

[@akankshagupta5494]

amazing work here Jason! So thankful to you!

[@emergingschoolofeconomics2065]

Right

[@j.whiting375]

what was that song in the beginning?

[@ellenmaes2480]

In some books, profit is shown on a graph as everything between the MC-curve and the demand curve. So that's wrong then? Or is that area 'always' the same as the area shown in this video (with AC-curve) The area between MC-ruve and demand curve is producer surplus, that I know. Can you say that's also profit?

[@richielyl95]

Can you make a video for 2nd degree and 3rd degree s' graphs analysis?

[@anettsmith4821]

Would buying something from a pawn shop be considered a 1st degree of price discrimination? Just because I have seen a pawn shop owner sell a product at a high price to one customer that was in deep demand for that product and then sold the same exact product at a lower price to another customer..(because that customer was not in high demand for that product)

[@courage936]

finally a video that explains 1st degree price discrimination.

College = 1st degree. Also, thank you.

[@JasonWelker]

Not exactly. It's more like 3rd degree, "by consumer group". For instance in-state tuition allows state residents to pay less. Pell-grants allow lower income students to pay less... the market is being segregated based on residence and socioeconomic level, not student by student...
