- Three firms with identical marginal cost of 30 compete in a market with inverse demand of P = 50 - 8Q. If the firms behave as the Cournot model suggests, what is the pass through rate for a change in marginal cost?The total cost for a product-testing firm is C(q)=70 + 20q2 q= number of products tested Price of a product = average cost Each corporation purchases one product test per year from a product-testing firm in the same city. All other inputs are ubiquitous. Suppose five corporations are initially distributed uniformly, with one corporation in each city (A,B,C,D,E). Is the initial distribution a Nash Equilibrium? Demonstrate it is not by finding how much one corporation would pay if they deviate and move to another city? What is the average price of having two tests conducted? (Which is the price that the corporation would pay if they "live" in a city where two tests are conducted) The average price of moving and thus, having two tests is: $_____This pertains to the Cournot model except that a. Both firms maximize profit b. Each firm anticipates the price movement of the other c. There are only 2 firms in the industry d. Each firm takes the output as given
- In the Bertrand model, suppose that each firm has a marginal cost of £5 and that firm 1 sets a price of £5, which of the following a best-response for firm 2? Click all the correct answers. £5.00 £4.98 £4.99 £5.20 £5.01Consider a homogeneous good industry (such as an agricultural product) with just two firms and a total market demand Q = 400−P, so the inverse demand is P = 400 − Q. Suppose both firms have a constant marginal cost equal to $100 per unit of output and a fixed cost equal to $10,000. One simple way to depict rivalry in a duopoly (2 firms) is the Cournot model. This model is reasonable in agricultural markets where firms choose production (plantings) in advance and the market price is determined later after the crop is harvested. In the Cournot model we imagine that the two firms simultaneously choose their production or quantity, and that demand (market clearing) determines the price given each firms’ quantity. (a) Suppose (hypothetically) that the second firm produces 0 units, and the first firm anticipates this, so the first firm is the only seller. How much will the first firm produce (in this case the first firm acts like a monopolist and sets output where MR = MC)?

- Exercise 6.8. Two companies with cost functions C1 (q1 )=5q1 and C2 (q2)= 0.5 q2 ² supply the to the same market. If the inverse market demand function is given by P = 100 - 0,5Q , where Q = q₁ + q₂ , find a) The production level of each firm, the price and the profits if the companies compete according to the Cournot model. (b) The level of production of each undertaking, the price and the profits if the undertakings agree to jointly maximise their profits. Show the results with the help of graphs.The Able Manufacturing Company and Better Bettors, Inc. are rival firms in the production of a calculator used by horse racing fans for handicapping (determining betting strategies). Each firm has a fixed cost of $100 and a MC = $10 in producing calculators. The demand for the industry’s product is: Q = 900 – 5P, where P is the market price and Q = Q1 + Q2. If each firm must choose how many calculators to produce and sell without knowing of its rival’s production decision, what will be the Cournot equilibrium price and quantities produced? Calculate the profit for each firm.(Dominant Firm with Fringe Competition) The structure of competition in the market for product A follows the dominant firm model with competitive fringes, where there is one company that is a dominant player and there are many fringes companies that compete competitively. The total demand for product A in this market is expressed by P = 1200 - Q, while the supply function of the competitive fringe is expressed by Sf: qf = P - 240. If the dominant firm is known to have marginal costs as follows: MCd = 240 + 0.25qd b. What is the equilibrium price and the equilibrium quantity for the dominant firm? Show your answer mathematically and graphically. c. In that equilibrium, what is the supply of competitive fringes? How many total products are there on the market? What is the market share of the dominant company and the fringe company? Show your answer mathematically and graphically Thank you Bartleby!
