- Suppose that firms A and B have the same product in the same market, where Qd = Qa + Qb = 300 - 2p is demand And the firms have a simple cost curves of TCa = 5Qa and TCb = 10Qb Find Cournot Equilibrium & Find the Stackelberg equilibrium if A is the leader. Thanks!Consider a market structure comprising two identical firms (A and B), each with the cost function given by: Ci = 30Qi , where Qi for i = {A, B} is output produced by each firm. Market demand is given by: P = 210 − 1.5Q, where Q = QA + QB (i) Find Cournot equilibrium. (ii) What will be the outcome if the firms decide to collude? Compare it with the results under the Cournot equilibrium.Consider a market for crude oil production. There are two firms in the market. The marginal cost of firm 1 is 20, while that of firm 2 is 20. The marginal cost is assumed to be constant. The inverse demand for crude oil is P(Q)=200-Q, where Q is the total production in the market. These two firms are engaging in Cournot competition. Find the production quantity of firm 1 in Nash equilibrium. If necessary, round off two decimal places and answer up to one decimal place.
- Consider two firms that produce the same good and compete setting quantities. The firms face a linear demand curve given by P (Q) = 1 − Q, where the Q is the total quantity offered by the firms. The cost function for each of the firms is c(qi) = cqi, where 0 < c < 1 and qi is the quantity offered by the firm i = 1,2. Find the Nash equilibrium output choices of the firms, as well as the total output and the price, and calculate the output and the welfare loss compared to the competitive outcome. How would the answer change if the firms compete setting prices? What can we conclude about the relationship between competition and the number of firms?Suppose that two firms with zero marginal costs are facing the inverse demand P=240-Q. Show that it is more advantageous to be the leader and announce your output decision first.Assume that there are two identical firms serving a market in which the inverse demandfunction is given byP =100-2Q. The marginal costs of each firm are $10 per unit.Calculate the Cournot equilibrium outputs for each firm, the product price, and the profitsof each firm.
- Consider a "Betrand price competition model" between two profit maximizing widget producers say A and B. The marginal cost of producing a widget is 4 for each producer. Each widget producer has a capacity constraint to produce only 5 widgets. There are 8 identical individuals who demand 1 widget only, and individuals value each widget at 6. If the firms are maximizing profits, then which of the following statement is true: a) Firm A and Firm B will charge 4 b) Firm A and Firm B will charge 6 c) Firm A and Firm B will charge greater than or equal to 5 d) None of the options are correct. Explain clearly.Consider two gas stations in a remote village facing the simple linear market demand Q= 300− 5p but have different marginal costs of production, both constant, such that MCx = 20 and MCy = 101. Measuring the quantities Qx on the horizontal axis and the quantities Qy on the vertical axis, draw the reaction curves for each of the gas stations.2. Based on a Cournot equilibrium, find the profit-maximizing quantities Qxand Qy for the two gas stations.3. Based on your answers to (1) and (2) above, if gas station y decided to produce 175 units, (a) what would be the reaction of gas station x, and (b) how would y, in turn, react to that level of output of x?Two firms sells an identical product. The demand function for each firm is given: Q = 20 - P, where Q = q1 + q2 is the market demand and P is the price. The cost function for reach firm is given: TCi = 10 + 2qi for i = 1, 2. a) If these two firms collude and they want to maximize their combined profit, how much are the market equilibrium quantity and price? b) If these two firms decide their production simultaneously, how much does each firm produce? What is the market equilibrium price? c) If Firm 1 is a leader who decides the production level first and Firm 2 is a follower, how much does each firm produce? What is the market equilibrium price?
- 10Two firms produce differentiated products. The demand for each firm’s product is as follows: Demand for Firm 1: q1 = 20 – 2p1 + p2 Demand for Firm 2: q2 = 20 – 2p2 + p1 Both firms have the same cost function: c(q) = 5q. Firms compete by simultaneously and independently choosing their prices and then supplying enough to meet the demand they receive. Please compute the Nash equilibrium prices for these firms.Suppose there are just two firms, 1 and 2, in the oil market and the inverse demand for oil is given by P = 60 – Q. The marginal cost for each firm is €24. What price should Firm 1 charge at the Cournot equilibrium?Suppose the market demand for ECO textbooks at the University is given by ?=1000−2?Q=1000−2P. The Marginal Cost of a textbook is $50. Suppose there are only two textbook publishers, both printing the exact same textbook. They compete in a Cournot manner. Suppose each firm produces ?=450q=450. Is this an equilibrium? Explain your reasoning, show all the steps of your working clearly. Keep your responses short and precise. Under 250 words is a good rule of thumb.
