- Assume the supply curve of the typical taxi cab driver in Chicago is P = 4 + 2Q. Suppose the market price is P = 12. Assume cab drivers, sellers of taxi services the in Chicago are regulated by a municipal authority. The regulatory authority charges the sellers a “license fee” that must be paid in order to obtain a license to operate a cab. What is the maximum license fee the regulators can charge? Use the concept of the “seller’s surplus” to answer the question.Carl and Simon are the only sellers of pumpkins at the market, where the total demand function for pumpkins is q =3 ,200−1,600p. The total number of pumpkins sold at the market is q = qC + qS, where qC is the number that Carl sells, qS is the number that Simon sells. The cost of producing pumpkins for each farmer is $.50 per pumpkin; the fixed costs are zero. .a. Find the Cournot equilibrium price and quantities. .b. Find the Bertrand equilibrium price and quantities. . .c. Suppose now that every spring the snow thaws off of Carl’s pumpkin field a week before it thaws off of Simon’s. Therefore, Carl can plant his pumpkins one week earlier than Simon while predicting Simon’s choice based on the previous year information. Simon observes Carl’s choice and chooses how much pumpkin to plant. Find the new equilibrium price and quantities. .d. Compare the quantities and prices in parts a, b, and c. Rank these outcomes according to Pareto efficiency.The market demand function for ice cream is Qd = 10 - 2P and the market supply function for ice cream is Qs = 4P - 2, where both quantities are measured in millions of gallons per year.
