4. Consider about a duopoly case: two firms compete by choosing prices for two differentiated goods. Their demand functions are Q1 = 20-P1+ P2 and Q2-20 + P1-P2, where Pi and P2 are the prices charged by each firm, respectively, and Qi and Q2 are the resulting demands. Fixed costs and marginal costs are both zero. (a) Suppose the two firms set their prices at the same time. Find the resulting Na equilibrium. What price will each firm charge, how...

Suppose a profit-maximizing monopolist has total cost and marginal cost as follow. TC =8Q + 10 and MC = 8. It faces the demand curve P=20-1/5Q. What is the equilibrium price and output? What is the total profit? Calculate the consumer surplus, producer surplus, and deadweight loss if the firm acts as a monopolist. Illustrate your answer with a diagram. Calculate the consumer surplus, producer surplus, and deadweight loss if the firm acts as a perfectly price-discriminated monopolist. Illustrate your answer with a diagram.
In Little Town, there are two suppliers of mineral water: A and B. Mineral water is considered a homogenous good. Let pA and pB denote the price and qA and qB the quantity sold by firms A and B, respectively. Suppose that the municipality provides all the water for free, so firms don't bear any production cost. The inverse demand function for mineral water is given by P=12-1/3Q where Q=qA + qB denotes the aggregate supply of mineral water. Suppose...

Suppose a profit-maximizing monopolist has total cost and marginal cost as follow: \(\mathrm{TC}=0.1 Q^{2}+Q+10\) and \(\mathrm{MC}=0.2 Q+1\). It faces the demand curve \(\mathrm{Q}=35-5^{\mathrm{P}} .(35\) points \()\)a) What are the price, output, and profit for this monopolist?b) Carefully draw the diagram that illustrates your answers.c) What are the equilibrium price, output, and total profit if this is a perfectly competitive market?d) Compare the results between monopoly and perfect...
Two firms compete by choosing price. Their demand functions are; Q1=80−P1+P2 and Q2=80+P1+P2. where P1 and P2 are the prices charged by each firm, respectively, and Q1 and Q2 are the resulting demands. Note that the demand for each good depends only on the difference in prices; if the two firms colluded and set the same price, they could make that price as high as they wanted, and earn infinite profits. Marginal costs are zero. Suppose the two firms set...
Perfect price discrimination a.increases profits to the firm. b.increases total surplus. c.decreases consumer surplus. d.All of the above are correct. For a firm to price discriminate, a.it must be a natural monopoly. b.it must be regulated by the government. c.it must have some market power. d.consumers must tell the firm what they are willing to pay for the product. A monopoly's marginal cost will a.be less than its average fixed cost. b.be less than the price per unit of its...
Problem 1: Suppose that the market demand function is given by q-80-2p. All firms in the industry have marginal cost of 10 and no fixed cost. In this problem, the firms compete in quantities. (a) What is the equilibrium price, quantity, consumer surplus, profit (producer surplus) and deadweight loss if there is only one firm in the industry? (b) Now answer the same question if there are two firms in the industry (duopoly). How does your answer compare to the...
A homogeneous product duopoly faces a market demand function given by p = 300 - 3Q,where Q = q1 + q2. Both firms have constant marginal cost MC = 100. (part 2) 1a. What is the Bertrand equilibrium price and quantity in this market? 1b. Suppose Firm 1 is the Stackelberg leader, what is the equilibrium price in this market if Firm 2 plays the follower in this duopoly market? What is the equilibrium quantity? How much does each firm...
