Which of the following is an accurate assessment of that feeling?) It is a false sense of relief because the cash flow situation of the householdbudget has not improved at all.It is a false sense of relief because economic housing costs have not diminishedat all.It is a valid sense of relief because it is always true that the less debt the better.O It is a valid sense of relief because housing costs have fallen and the family isricher.

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 $10, Firm 1 is able to drive Firm 2 completely out of the market. After Firm 2 exits the market, does Firm 1 have an…
Suppose the market demand for a homogeneous product is given by Q = a - bP, where a and b are positive constants. The product is supplied by a dominant firm with a constant marginal cost c > 0 and n competitive fringe firms, each of which has a cost function ci(qi) = (qi^2)/(2ki) for i = 1, ... , n, where ki > 0 is a parameter. Suppose the dominant firm moves first by setting a price P, followed by competitive fringe rms setting their quantities, taking the price as given. a). Compute the equilibrium price and quantity level for each firm. b). How does the presence of competitive fringe firms affect the equilibrium price, as compared to the monopoly price by the dominant firm?
You’ve been given a firm’s production and cost functions:p = 132 −2qMC = 12 + 4q(a) Assume this firm is in a perfectly competitive market. Calculate the equilibrium price andquantity.(b) What is the firm’s profit here?(c) Assume this firm is in a monopoly market. Calculate the equilibrium price and quantity.(d) What is the firm’s profit here?(e) Give an example of a perfectly competitive agricultural market, and give an example of amonopoly agricultural market.
A firm has the following total costs, where Q is output and TC is total cost: QTC0$ 1001110213031604200525063107380846095501065011760 Say the firm is in a perfectly competitive market. If the current market (equilibrium) price is $ 70, at what output level will the firm as a profit maximizer produce at? Say the market price rises to $ 100. At what output level (as a perfect competitor) will this produce at? How much profit is the firm making at a price of $90? Based on this calculation, do you expect firms to enter or leave this market? Say instead this firm is a monopoly. If the firm maximizes profit at an output level where marginal revenue equals $ 80, what output level will this be?
I alrready got the first half answered, I need the second half. JointJuice produces a prepackaged joint support supplement for relief of joint pain with 180 tablets per bottle and operates in a perfectly competitive market. Basically, all the firms in this competitive market have technologies (production and cost conditions) that are the same as JointJuice’s. Suppose JointJuice’s total cost function is given by the following where q is JointJuice’s quantity of packages per day: C(q) = 250 + 6q + 0.1q^2 The market demand function for the output in this market is given by: Q = 1848 - 2P If there are 20 identical firms in this industry, find the market equilibrium price for the prepackaged supplements. Calculate JointJuice’s optimal output level and profits given the market price for the product. If JointJuice is typical of the firms in this industry calculate the firm’s long-run equilibrium output, price, and profit level. Suppose the situation changes. JointJuice has its plant in…

Suppose that fixed costs for a firm in the automobile industry (start-up costs of facto-ries, capital equipment, and so on) are $5 billion and that variable costs are equal to$17,000 per finished automobile. Because more firms increase competition in themarket, the market price falls as more firms enter an automobile market, or specifi-cally, P = 17,000 + (150/n), where n represents the number of firms in a market.Assume that the initial size of the U.S, and the European automobile markets are 300million and 533 million people, respectively.a.
