Monopoly outcome versus perfectly competitive outcome Consider the daily market for hot dogs in a small city. Suppose that this market is in long-run perfectly competitive equilibrium, with many hot dog stands in the city, each one selling the same kind of hot dogs. Therefore, each vendor is a price taker and possesses no market power. The following graph shows the demand (D) and supply curves (S = MC) in the market for hot dogs. Place the black point (plus symbol) on the graph to indicate the market price and quantity that will result from perfect competition. Use the green point (triangle symbol) to shade the area that represents consumers’ surplus, and use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the area that represents producers’ surplus. (graph 1) Assume that one of the hot dog vendors successfully lobbies the city council to obtain the exclusive right to sell hot dogs within the city limits. This firm buys up all the rest of the hot dog vendors in the city and…
Case study 1Oil pump price war Based on an article from The Telegraph, 10 July 2009 “Asda, the supermarket chain, sparked a potential petrol price war yesterday as it cut its fuel prices to 99.9p per litre, declaring there was “little justification” to charge more than £1 at the pumps.The reduction was made on petrol and diesel, representing an average cut of 2p and 1p respectively, at all the company’s 176 forecourts.The move was quickly followed by a pledge from Morrisons that it too would sell petrol for under £1 a litre, signalling the start of a price war. BP said it would cut prices by around 2p at many of its sites, and would continue to respond to local competition.A spokesman for the AA said: “Asda’s price drop marks the start of a new price war. Others will have no choice but to follow.”Asda’s Commercial director David Miles said: “There is no justification for any major retailer selling fuel above £1 per litre – that is why we are delighted to be able to reduce both petrol…

Please answer question #5 A-C 5. Optimal price in San Antonio You decide to charge different prices in the two locations. To do this, you decide to use the demand functions you estimated in Q2 to calculate separate optimal prices in the two locations. For your costs in San Antonio, you have fixed costs of $2000 per week. In addition, it costs you six dollars per burger in variable costs (ingredients, labor etc.) A. What is your cost function in San Antonio? B. Using the demand function from Q2, calculate the profit maximizing price and quantity. Is the new price higher or lower than the price if you do not price discriminate? Is this consistent with your answer from Q3? C. What are your…

Two firms are engaged in Bertrand competition. There are 10,000 people in the population, each of whom is willing to pay at most 10 for at most one unit of the good. Both firms have a constant marginal cost of 5. Each firm is allocated half the market. It costs a customer s to switch from one firm to the other. Customers know what prices are being charged. Law or custom restricts the firms to charging whole-dollar amounts (e.g., they can charge 6, but not 6.50). a. Suppose that s = 0. What are the Nash equilibria of this model? Why does discrete (whole-dollar) pricing result in more equilibria than continuous pricing? b. Suppose that s = 2. What is (are) the Nash equilibrium (equilibria) of this model? c. Suppose that s = 4. What is (are) the Nash equilibrium (equilibria) of this model? d. Comparing the expected profits in (b) to those in (c), what is the value of raising customers’ switching costs from 2 to 4?.

2. Tender Care is a licensed day care center located in a city of 300,000 people. Tender Care has three centers operating in this city. There are about 15 similar day care centers operating in this city also. Some businesses have their own on-site day care centers for their employees. In addition, there are many individuals who conduct day care activities out of their own homes. Due to the number of day care operations, they all charge approximately the same price.Competitive Situation:Explanation:
