- 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…C2) Company A is the only supplier of glass in Big Apple City used for tall buildings’ exteriors.

There is 1000profit to be made in the market. Each period, the restaurants simultaneously decide whether to offer high orlow quality food. In order to offer high quality food, each restaurant must hire an expert chef, which incursan additional cost of 100. The restaurants split the profit equally if they offer the same quality of food. Ifone restaurant offers high quality food while the other offers low quality food, the high quality restauranttakes four fifths of the profit and the low quality restaurant takes one fifth of the profit.(a) Draw up the normal form game matrix, showing the players, strategies, and payoffs.(b) Determine the Nash equilibrium of this game.(c) Explain how the restaurant owners could both be better off than in the Nash equilibrium if they wereable to cooperate. Is the town as a whole better off or worse off when the firms cooperate? Why or whynot
- Your current prices are $311 in the southwestern region; $278 in the western-region and $240 in the New England region. Your marginal cost is now $212.21. Given the predicted changes in the quantity demanded by region per problem 1 and using the stay even analysis %ΔQd = %ΔP/[%ΔP + ((P-MC)/P)], can you raise the price by 7% in any of the regional markets? State you conclusion and then show all the steps supporting your conclusion. (Note you are not being asked to compute the new price.)Please no written by hand and no emage Two firms compete in a homogeneous product market where the inverse demand function is P = 20 −5Q (quantity is measured in millions). Firm 1 has been in business for one year, while Firm 2 just recently entered the market. Each firm has a legal obligation to pay one year’s rent of $1.6 million regardless of its production decision. Firm 1’s marginal cost is $2, and Firm 2’s marginal cost is $10. The current market price is $15 and was set optimally last year when Firm 1 was the only firm in the market. At present, each firm has a 50 percent share of the market.Determine the current profits of the two firms. Firm 1's profits: $Firm 2's profits: $What would each firm’s current profits be if Firm 1 reduced its price to $10 while Firm 2 continued to charge $15?Firm 1's profits: $Firm 2's profits: $Suppose that, by cutting its price to $10, Firm 1 is able to drive Firm 2 completely out of the market.

The Herfindahl index for the industry is select the correct option. 1,997. 87. 2,082. 1,800.Amir operates a large lobster boat. The operating cost for the boat is $2,250 each day. At the end of each day, he sells allhis freshly caught lobster to either the local restaurant or the local grocery store with the following conditions:.The price per pound that the restaurant is willing to pay follows a triangular distribution with minimum value $1.50,maximum value $5.50, and likeliest value $3.50.• The price per pound that the grocery store is willing to pay is decreasing with more lobsters: $3.85 - $0.0005 *y,where y is the total lobster amount sold in pounds.• The amount of lobster that Amir catches in a single day follows a normal distribution with mean 1,500 pounds andstandard deviation sqrt(12,500) pounds.Amir decides to sell a fixed percentage of lobster to the local restaurant and the rest to local grocery stores. Using eithermath or simulation, can you help Amir determine what percentage he should choose in order to maximize his expected profitin the long run?
- Suppose demand and supply curves for you company’s product are given by:QD = 10 -XP QS =5 +YP You will need to find value for X between [0.1 -3] and Y between [0.1 -3] based on the elasticity of demand and supply. This elasticity in turn depends on the type of product, marketstructure and competitive advantage of the company. In this case, the product is an electric car and the price elasticity of demand is relatively high. Moreover, this does not have to be an exact value, and it should be done by looking at the graph of the price elasticity.Suppose the Carrow Road stadium has a capacity of 50,000 seats and is used for sevengames a year. Three are Premiership games, with a demand for tickets (expressed in thousands)given by D = 150 − 3p per game, where p is the ticket price. Three of the other games are EastAnglia friendly matches with demand D = 90 − 3p per game. Finally, one is a Champion’s Leaguegame with a demand D = 240 − 3p. The costs of operating the stadium are independent of thenumber of tickets sold.(a) Determine the optimal ticket price for each game, assuming the objective is profit maximization.(b) Given that the stadium is frequently full, the idea of expanding the stadium has arisen. Apreliminary study suggests that the cost of capacity expansion would be £100 per seat per year.Would you recommend that the football club goes ahead with the project of capacity expansion?Plum charges £500 for its smartphone, producing a revenue of £8 million per month. It fears that a competitor, MV, will shortly make a price reduction of 10% for its product. The marketing manager is considering whether to match this price reduction in order to try and maintain sales. She has estimated that Plum’s PED is –1.5 and the CED with the competitor’s product is 0.8. The marginal cost is estimated to be 42% of the price. a) Calculate the effect on Plum’s sales volume and revenue assuming it maintains its price at the existing level. b) Calculate how much of a price cut Plum would need to make to maintain its sales volume at the existing level. c) Evaluate whether the price cut is a good strategy
