3. An industry is subject to agglomeration economies (and diseconomies). The profit per firm is £100 for an isolated firm, and increases to a maximum of £160 per firm in a cluster with 6 firms. The profit curve is linear, with a slope of +£12 in the positively-sloped part and -£10 in the negatively-sloped part. Illustrate this profit curve. What will be the equilibrium number of firms in the cluster and how much profit will each firm make? Will this be greater than the efficient number of firms? Explain why. How will an increase in transport costs affect the profit curve and the optimal cluster size? Briefly explain your answer.
In the short run, each of the 5 firms in some industry faces a capacity constraint and constant marginal and average costs until this capacity is reached (see the table below). Marginal Cost = Average Cost Maximum output Firm 1 $50 100 Firm 2 $60 20 Firm 3 $67 50 Firm 4 $80 200 Firm 5 $92 70 Assuming that no firm has monopoly (pricing) power, what will be the quantity supplied at a price of (a) $40 (b) $55 (c) $73 (d) $99
wo firms A and B produce an identical product (Note: Industry Output = Q). The firms have to decide how much output qA and qB (Note: qA = Firm A Output; qB = Firm B Output) they must produce since they are the only two firms in the industry that manufacture this product. Their marginal cost (MC) is equal to their average cost (AC) and it is constant at MC = AC = X, for both firms. Market demand is given as Q = Y – 2P (where P = price and Q = quantity). Select any value for X between [21 – 69] and any value for Y between [501 – 999].

2. Consider a market with 90 firms, each firm has a short-run total cost function as follows: TC(q) = 5q2, and a marginal cost function: MC(q) = 10q. Market demand is given by equation Qd(p) = 200 - p. a. Solve for the short-run equilibrium outcome: P*, Q* and q*. b. What is one firm's economic profit in this market? c. Consider a different market structure, where there is only one firm, interpreted as a monopolist, and then critically discuss the impact on equilibrium price and quantity. Discuss total surplus for these two types of market structures.

Suppose that each firm in a competitive industry has the following costs: Total cost: TC = 50 + q2 Marginal cost: MC = q where q is an individual firms quantity produced. The market demand curve for this product is Demand:QD = 120 P where P is the price and Q is the total quantity of the good. Currently, there are 9 firms in the market. a.
