Suppose we have a market demand Q = 18 – P and a cost C(Q) 9) = 3Q?. Suppose that firm 1 in the market described in question 1 has first mover advantage. (Market demand is Q 18 – P and both firms have the same cost C(Q) - Q? a. What do we call a market where two firms move sequentially? b. Set up and solve for firm l's output, firm 2's output, market output, and equilibrium price. Show...
1. Suppose that firm 1 in the market described in question 1 has first mover advantage. (Market demand is Q = 18 – P and both firms have the same cost C(q) = Q2) a. What do we call a market where two firms move sequentially? b. Set up and solve for firm 1's output, firm 2's output, market output, and equilibrium price. Show all work for each step. C. Do consumers prefer this over the Cournot equilibrium ? d....

Suppose we have a market demand Q = 18 – P and a cost C(Q) 9) = 3Q?. (10 points) Suppose the two firms cannot collude and instead compete in the Cournot Model in the market described in question 1 (market demand is still Q 18 – P) with the same cost (C(q) = -23. 2 a. Set up firm 1's profit maximization. b. Solve for firm 1's best response function. C. Solve for firm 1's quantity, firm 2's quantity,...
Suppose the two firms cannot collude and instead compete in the Cournot Model in the market described in question 1 (market demand is still Q=18-P) with the same cost (C(Q)=1/2 *Q^2). Set up firm 1’s profit maximization. Solve for firm 1’s best response function. Solve for firm 1’s quantity, firm 2’s quantity, the equilibrium market quantity, and price. Show your work. Is this a Nash equilibrium? Do consumers prefer the Cournot competition equilibrium over the collusion of the two firms...
3. Suppose the two firms cannot collude and instead compete in the Cournot Model in the market described in question 1 (market demand is still Q = 18 – P) with the same cost (C(Q)=Q2). a. Set up firm 1's profit maximization. b. Solve for firm 1's best response function. C. Solve for firm 1's quantity, firm 2's quantity, the equilibrium market quantity, and price. Show your work. d.

Suppose that the inverse market demand for a commodity is given by P = 240 Q The cost curves of the three firms which could serve this market are TC,(a) 30q +300 and TC2() (d) Suppose that firms engage in Stackelberg rather than Cournot competition. Firm 1 moves first by choosin its output level. After Firm 1 has chosen its output level, Firm 2 observes ql and chooses its output leve Find the subgame-perfect Nash equilibrium of the Stackelberg game....
3. Suppose the two firms cannot collude and instead compete in the Cournot Model in the market described in question 1 (market demand is still Q = 18 – P) with the same cost (C(Q)=Q2). e. Do consumers prefer the Cournot competition equilibrium over the collusion of the two firms in question 3? f. Do the two firms prefer Cournot competition over colluding (assuming the collusion agreement is to split joint profits equally)?
Suppose we have two firms with the same cost C(q) = {Q2 in a market which demand is Q 18 – P, the two firms compete in the Cournot Model. a. Set up firm 1's profit maximization and best response function. b. Solve for firm 1's quantity, firm 2's quantity, the equilibrium market quantity, and price. Please show your work. c. Is this a Nash equilibrium?
Suppose we have a market demand Q = 18 – P and a cost C(Q) 9) = 3Q?. Suppose a second firm enters the market described in question 1 (market demand is 1 still Q = 18 – P) with the same cost (cle) = 109. a. If the two firms successful collude what is the equilibrium market quantity and price? b. If the two firms successfully collude what is the joint profit? C. What do we call a collusion...
