- QUESTION 13 Consider a market where two firms (1 and 2) produce differentiated goods and compete in prices. The demand for firm 1 is given by D₁(P₁, P2) = 140 - 2p1 + P2 and demand for firm 2's product is D2 (P1, P2) 140 - 2p2 + P1 Both firms have a constant marginal cost of 20. What is the Nash equilibrium price of firm 1? (Only give a full number; if necessary, round to the lower integer; no dollar sign.)Consider a Stackelberg duopoly:There are two firms in an industry with demand Q = 1 − Pd.The “leader” chooses a quantity qL to produce. The “follower” observes qL and chooses a quantity qF.Suppose now that the cost function is Ci(qi) = qi2 for i = L, F. (a) Find the subgame perfect equilibrium. (b) Compare the equilibrium you found with the Nash equilibrium if the game was simultaneous (i.e., Cournot competition). Is the Nash equilibrium of the Cournot game also a Nash equilibrium of the sequential game? Why or why not?= Consider two firms, firm 1 and firm 2, facing the demand curve P = 24 - 2Q, where Q = Q₁ + Q₂. The firms' cost functions are C₁(Q₁) = Q² and C₂(Q₂) = 2Q². Derive the reaction functions if the firms behave non-cooperatively. a. b. C. d. e. What is each firm's Cournot-Nash-Equilibrium output and profit if they behave non-cooperatively? Draw the firms' reaction functions and show the equilibrium. Suppose that both firms have entered the industry as a cartel. What is the joint profit-maximising level of output? How much will each firm produce? How much is the profit of each firm? Compare and explain graphically each firm's Cournot-Nash-Equilibrium output with their new output where firm 2 chooses its output first. Put firm 1's output on the horizontal axis and firm 2's on the vertical axis. (Note: No calculation is required.)
- If firm 1 and firm 2 are the oligopolistic firms in bottled spring water production in Nomansland. The market demand is given by ? = 5000 −20?, Qd is the number of kilolitres demanded per month while P is the price of kilolitres of bottled water. The marginal cost of a kilolitre of bottled water is R10.How do I Find the Cournot equilibrium quantities and price? and how do I Find the Cournot profits and the monopolist profits?Suppose that two firms produce mountain spring water and the market demand for mountain spring water is given as follows: P = 125 - 91 - 92 Firm 1 and Firm 2 have a MC = 5 a) Find the Cournot-Nash equilibrium price and quantity of each firm. b) Assume now that firm 1 becomes the Stackelberg leader. What will be the market price, output by each firm? Compared to part a, who gains? c) If Firm 1 chooses a quantity, then Firm 2 chooses a quantity (having observed Firm 1's quantity), then Firm 1 has an opportunity to revise its quantity (having observed Firm 2's quantity), then payoffs are determined, does either firm stand to gain relative to the case of simultaneous quantity choice? Why or why not? (hint: there is no need to do any calculation here)Consider a market that only includes two large firms. The (inverse) market demand is P = 100 – Q. 3q2. Firm 1 has a cost function of C, = 2q1, and firm 2 has a cost function of C2 Use a Cournot model to calculate the Nash equilibrium outputs q, and q2 of the two firms. and 92 (a) Give each firm's profit as a function of (b) Compute the Nash equilibrium q, and q2.
