Answer:
Q1 take music: do you buy an album or just the song? Drugs do you buy a pill or a bottle? Electricity do you leave your lights on because electricity is so cheep? Do you make your own gas? Do you buy more than you need?

Q2 I may be wrong but if a monopolist cost go up the average cost goes up; without competition there is no way to analyze the lowest cost-the owner may want to take home more $-like bill gates does. Furthermore, most businesses do not produce at the lowest point of average cost. That is why some businesses are looking at improving their electricity efficiency.
1, is not a problem.
