C2) Company A is the only supplier of glass in Big Apple City used for tall buildings’ exteriors. Its marginal cost of production is cA=1, and it has no other production costs. The demand for such glass in Big Apple city is QD=2-P. Company B in Jersey City produces the same glass and is considering whether to expand to Big Apple city. If it enters, it needs to get a permit to allow it to be a supplier in the Big-Apple city at a cost of L=0.5, which does not vary with quantity of output, and its marginal cost of production is cB=0.5. If it expands to the Big-Apple city, companies A and B both supply to the market, and the market price P satisfies QA+QB=2-P, where QA is company A’s production level and QB is company B’s. a) If company B expands to the Big-Apple city, what is the resulting price in a Nash equilibrium? b) Company B hires a consulting company to advise whether it should expand to the Big-Apple city. If you’re running the consulting company, what is your advice? Explain…

In the 1928, Knoxville was served by a single railroad line. Because alternative forms of transportation were not close substitutes for rail transportation in 1928, this railroad had a transportation monopoly in Knoxville. The estimated monthly fixed cost associated with operating a railroad was $1,200. In addition, there was a constant average variable cost and marginal cost of $0.02 per ton-mile associated with the railroad's operation. The estimated monthly demand for transportation on the railroad was: Qd = q = 80,000 - 1,000,000P where Qd was the monthly quantity demanded in ton-miles and P was the price per ton-mile in dollars. Based upon the above equation, answer the following questions: a. What is the profit-maximizing price and quantity? b. Would a private company build the railroad? c. What is the socially optimal price and quantity?
S Pte Ltd (“SPL”) is a country incorporated and tax resident in Country S. It has developed a social audio platform whereby the users can connect with other users from different parts of the world via audio chat. SPL believes that social audio feature will be the next game changer in the internet space, especially when a lot of countries are still in lock-down mode and human-to-human connection becomes a huge concern during Pandemic.The social audio platform is getting more popular in Asia and SPL is keen to explore the possibility of setting up a Headquarter company in Singapore with operating subsidiaries in Malaysia, Thailand, Japan and Hong Kong. Required: Assuming SPL is interested in applying for tax incentives in Singapore, illustrate the two (2) relevant tax incentives SPL can consider based on the information stated above, and discuss any additional conditions SPL should be aware of.

Firm 1 must decide whether to enter an industry in which firm 2 is an incumbent. To enter this industry, firm 1 must choose to build elther a plant with a small output capacity (S), or large output capacity (L). A plant with small capacity costs $50 to set up; one with large capacity cost $175. In either case, the marginal cost of production is zero. But firm 1 can also opt to stay out (0), in which case it does not incur any type of cost. Firm 2 is able to observe firm 1's decision before deciding whether to expand or not its initial small output capacity operation. Expanding (E) costs firm 2 $76, whereas not expanding (N) incurs no cost for the firm. In either case, the marginal cost of production is also zero. The revenues under the different scenarios are given below. - It only one small firm exists, its revenue is $80, the other earns zero. - if two small firms exist, each earns revenue of $70. - If only one large firm exists, its revenue is $200, the other earns zero. - If…
The entry of a private entity into the water utility business has brought changes in operational processes. One particular example is that of Metro Dumaguete Water (MDW). The utility company is now planning to charge consumers based on peak and off-peak demand rates. On weekdays, peak times are during the early morning (4 to 7 am) and evenings (5 to 10 pm), while on weekends at 4 in the morning to 12 noon. MDW wanted to know the price that they should during those times (peak and off-peak). Based on early calculations, the monthly demand for water during each period is related to price as follows: Dp = 4.178 – 0.134Pp + 0.082Po Do = 2.673 – 0.159Po + 0.091Pp where, Dp and Pp are demand and price during peak times, while Do and Po are demand and price during off-peak times. In addition, it will costs MDW P82.50 per month to maintain one cubic meter of capacity considering the new equipment and gadgets that would be set up with regards to the…
