The pure (profit maximizing) monopolist's demand curve is not? 1) perfectly elastic, because the firm will still have some competitors even if they are not close. 2) perfectly inelastic, because MR < MC when demand is inelastic, so the price would be falling. 3) perfectly inelastic, because MR is negative when demand is inelastic, so MR = MC < 0. 4) downward sloping, because MR is negative when demand is elastic, so MR = MC < 0.
