Suppose the demand curve for corn is Q(p) 10-p. Suppose that one firm owns all five...
1. (25 points) Suppose that a monopolist faces the inverse demand curve: P 100-Q and produces goods at a marginal cost of $5. Finally assume that the firm incurs no fixed costs A. Suppose the monopolist lowers the price from $90 to $89. Explain why the firm's marginal revenue is less than the price of the 11th unit sold, $89 (do not answer this question by providing a mathematical equation). B. At what price will the monopolist maximize its profit?...
consider a market with inverse demand curve p=400-4Q. costs per firm are given by C(q)= 16+10q+q^2 a) find the minimum efficient scale output level b) in a competitive market , how many firms will be active in the long-run c) suppose we have a cournot oligopoly with n firms . determine output of each firm and the equilibrium price d) find the long run equilibrium number of firms if the market is a cournot oligopoly and entry occurs until profit...
Suppose the demand curve for a firm is Q=50 - 0.125P, where Q measures units of output and P is the price per unit. Complete the following: a.Derive the firm's marginal revenue curve. b. What is the value of marginal revenue at 10 units of output? c. Graph the firm's demand and marginal revenue curve.
Cournot Oligopoly and Number of Firms In a Cournot oligopoly, each firm assumes that its rivals do not change their output based on the output that it produces. Ilustration: A Cournot oligopoly has two firms, YandZ. Yobservesthe market demand curve and the number of units that Z produces. It assumes that Z does notchange its output regardless of the number of units that it (Y) produces, so chooses a production level that maximizes its profits. The general effects of a...
Suppose that some firms in a perfectly competitive market are making positive economic profits. Which one of the following would not be expected to occur? a. All firms’ economic profits would eventually be driven to zero at equilibrium. b. The equilibrium quantity sold will fall. c. The equilibrium price will fall. d. The supply curve will shift to the right. e. More firms would enter the market. . Which one of the following is not characteristic of a pure monopoly?...
This homework assignment compares a competitive market with a monopolistic market. The market demand curve is P 122-¼Q. For each firm, marginal oosts are 20 + qi50 and fixed costs are 1 00. We assume first that the market is competitive. Module 8explains the competitive pricing procedure. Wederive the long-run price from the firms' cost curve competitive firms price at long-run minimum average costs. Question: Why is this relation true? Answer: Decreasing marginal utility implies an upward sloping marginal cost...
1. Suppose demand curve is: Q = 500-20P. a. What is the monopoly output if marginal cost is 5? b. What is the Bertrand output if the marginal cost is 5 for both firms? c. What is the Bertrand output if there are 2 firms and marginal costs of firm 1 is 7 and firm 2 is 5?
Please be descriptive. The inverse market demand curve for bean sprouts is given by P(Q) 100 2Q, and the marginal cost for any firm in the industry is $4. (a) (10 points) If the bean-sprout industry were perfectly competitive, what would be the industry output and the industry price? be the industry output would and the market price? as a follower. What would be the industry output would and the market price? (b) (20 points) If the firms were operating...
The market demand curve is given by Q = 200-2p. There is one dominant firm, which sets the market price and has a constant marginal cost of 5, and a competitive fringe of 10 price-taking firms, each of which has a marginal cost function MC (Q) = 10 +Q. Derive the equation of the dominant firm’s residual demand curve. What price will the dominant firm set to maximize its profits? At this price, how much does the competitive fringe produce?
EC202-5-FY 10 9Answer both parts of this question. (a) Firm A and Firm B produce a homogenous good and are Cournot duopolists. The firms face an inverse market demand curve given by P 10-Q. where P is the market price and Q is the market quantity demanded. The marginal and average cost of each firm is 4 i. 10 marks] Show that if the firms compete as Cournot duopolists that the total in- dustry output is 4 and that if...
