Problem 2. Cournot Competition with Three Firms Suppose there are three identical firms engaged in quantity competition. The demand is P=1-Q where Q = 91 +92 +93. To simplify, assume that the marginal cost of production is zero. Compute the Cournot equilibrium (i.e., quantities, price, and profits).
Problem 1. Cournot Competition with Two Firms Suppose there are two identical firms engaged in quantity competition (Cournot competition). The demand is P=1-Q where Q =91 +92. Assume that firm's i total cost of production is TC(qi) Compute the Cournot equilibrium (i.e., quantities, price, and profits).
Problem 1. Cournot Competition with Two Firms Suppose there are two identical firms engaged in quantity competition (Cournot competition). The demand is P 1 - Qwhere Q qi 2. Assume that firm's i total cost of production is TC(q) = . Compute the Cournot equilibrium (i.e., quantities, price, and profits)
Problem 3. Cournot Competition with Different Costs Suppose there are two firms engaged in quantity competition. The demand is P = 2 - Q where Q =q1+q2. Assume ci = 1 and c2 = , i.e., Firm 2 is more efficient. Compute the Cournot equilibrium (i.e., quantities, price, and profits).
Problem 4. Cournot Competition With Different Costs Suppose there are two firms engaged in quantity cornpetition. The demand is P = 2-Q where Q qi + 92. Assunie c.-1 and c2 =丨, ie.. Firm 2 is more efficient. Compute the Cournot equilibrium (i.e., quantities, price, and profits)
Problem 3. Cournot Competition with Different Costs Suppose there are two firms engaged in quantity competition. The demand is P = 2 - Q where Q=q1 +22. Assume cı = { and c2 = , i.e., Firm 2 is more efficient. Compute the Cournot equilibrium (i.e., quantities, price, and profits). price, and profits).
[Cournot competition with N firms] There are three identical firms in the industry. The inverse demand function is p(Q-1-Q, where Q = q1 +92+93 denotes aggregate output. To facilitate your calculations, assume that the marginal cost for all firms is zero, c 0· 2. (a) Find the best response function for each firm. Interpret b) Compute the Cournot equilibrium. (c) Assume that two of the three firms merge (transforming the industry into a duopoly). Show that the profit of the...
Problems 3,4 and 5 Problem 3. Consider the game below. (a) There are no dominant or dominated strategies. Is there anything you can say about what players will do? Player 2 C T (2,1) (0,2) M (1,1) (1,1)| (1,0) B(0,1) (2,0) (2,2) (0,3) Player (b) Report the best responses Problem 4. Bertrand Competition With Different Costs Suppose two firms facing a demand Dip) compete by setting prices simultaneously (Bertrand Competition). Firm 1 has a constant marginal cost e and Firm...
Question 2. XYZ and MLN are two firms that produce identical woomeras that they sell to a market that has inverse demand p=10-Q, where Q is total market supply. XYZ has constant marginal cost of $1 per unit, and MLN has constant marginal cost of $2 per unit. The two firms are engaged in Cournot competition. (a) What are equilibrium quantities and profits?
Answer the following question. Please show all your working/explanation. Three firms compete a la Cournot (compete in a Cournot Competition). Each firm has constant marginal cost c. Inverse demand curve is 1 - Q, where Q is the total quantity. Firm 1 moves first, and chooses q1 . After firm 1 chooses q1, firms 2 and 3 move second and simultaneously choose q2 and q3 . Find the equilibrium quantities q1, q2, q3 .
