Table 16-3
Imagine a small town in which only two residents, Robert and John, own wells that produce water for safe drinking. Each Saturday, Robert and John work together to decide how many litres of water to pump, bring the water to town, and sell it at whatever price the market will bear. To keep things simple, suppose that Robert and John can pump as much water as they want without cost; therefore, the marginal cost of water equals zero.
The weekly town demand schedule and total revenue schedule for water are shown in the table.

A) $270
