Asap ppz Three electricity generating firms are competing in the market with the inverse demand given by P[Q) = 21-Q. All firms have constant marginal costs. Firm 1's marginal cost is MC=5; it has a capacity constraint of K1= 5 units. Firm 2's marginal cost is MC 8; it has a capacity constraint of K2 = 3 units. Firm 3's marginal cost is MC = 10; it has a capacity constraint of K3= 3 units.A. The three firms compete in the style of Cournot. Please compute the Nash equilibrium quantities. Also compute the price in the Nash equilibrium.B. Which of these firms would have produced a larger quantity if it had a larger capacity? Please explain.

Formulate an LP model for the following problems.1. Bernadette intends to invest up to ₱50,000 in either Best Fund, or a time deposit orboth. The Best Fund pays 8% per year and the time deposit pays 9%. Because theBest Fund is riskier than the time deposit, so she intends to put at most ₱30,000 intothe time deposit and at least ₱10,000 into the Best Fund. How much should she allotto each investment in order to maximize her returns?

Edwards Manufacturing Company purchases two component parts from three different suppliers. The suppliers have limited capacity, and no one supplier can meet all the company’s needs. In addition, the suppliers charge different prices for the components. Component price data (in price per unit) are as follows: Supplier Component 1 2 3 1 $12 $12 $15 2 $11 $10 $12 Each supplier has a limited capacity in terms of the total number of components it can supply. However, as long as Edwards provides sufficient advance orders, each supplier can devote its capacity to component 1, component 2, or any combination of the two components, if the total number of units ordered is within its capacity. Supplier capacities are as follows: Supplier 1 2 3 Capacity 575 950 800 If the Edwards production plan for the next period includes 1050 units of component 1 and 775 units of component 2, what purchases do you recommend? That is, how many units of each component should be…
