ECON M/C
An industry has two firms. The demand curve for the industry's output is given by p = 370 – 24, where q is the total industry output. Each firm has a constant marginal cost equal to 10. Suppose that one firm is the Stackelberg leader and the other firm is the Stackelberg follower. The leader will choose quantity Select one: a. 80 b. 120 O C. 150 O d. 90 O e. None of the above.

[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...

ECON M?C
There are two firms in an industry. The industry demand curve is given by p = 60 - q. Each firm has one manufacturing plant and each firm i has a cost function C(q) = 97, where qi is the output of firm i. The two firms form a cartel and arrange to split total industry profits equally. Under this cartel arrangement, they will maximize joint profits if Select one: O a. each firm produces 15 units in...

ECON M/C is this correct?
A duopoly faces the inverse demand curve p = 10 – 4, where q is the sum of firm 1's output 91 and firm 2's output (2 (q = 41 +92). Firm 1's total cost function is given by Ci(91) 2q1 and firm 2's total cost function is given by C2(92) 8q2. Suppose firms engage in price competition (Bertrand competition). Which of the following statements is correct? Select one: a. Bertrand equilibrium of this duopoly...
