Consider a Duopoly model, in which two firms decide a quantity sequentially. For the convenience, let's say Firm 1 is a dominant firm and Firm 2 is a follower. The market demand is given by P=110 - 5Q, where Q is the total output (i.e., Q=Q1+Q2). Each firm has an identical cost function, TCi=7Qi, i=1, 2. Each firm maximizes its profit by choosing the quantity. In this Stackelberg equilibrium, Firm 1 will sell how many units.

Question

Consider a Duopoly model, in which two firms decide a quantity sequentially. For the convenience, let's say Firm 1 is a dominant firm and Firm 2 is a follower. The market demand is given by P=110 - 5Q, where Q is the total output (i.e., Q=Q₁+Q₂). Each firm has an identical cost function, TC_i=7Q_i, i=1, 2. Each firm maximizes its profit by choosing the quantity. In this Stackelberg equilibrium, Firm 1 will sell how many units.
