In the Bertrand equilibrium, the profit maximizing price is set = marginal cost
since marginal cost = 2, the price = 2

why is 2 the correct answer?

4. Homogenous product Bertrand. Suppose that the demand for marbles is given by Q- 80 - 5P, where Q is measured in bags of marbles. There are two firms that supply the market, and the firms produce identical marbles (i.e., they are homogenous products). Firm 1 has a constant marginal cost of $10.00/bag, while firm 2 has a constant marginal cost of S5.00/bag. The two firms compete in price. In Nash Equilibrium, what prices will the two firms set? How...

Suppose identical price setting duopoly firms have constant marginal costs of $50 per unit and no fixed costs. Consumers view the firms' products as perfect substitutes. The market demand is Q = 90 - p. In Bertrand equilibrium, firm 1's price is $_and firm 2's price is $ . (Enter numeric responses using integers.)

4. Suppose that firm 1 and firm 2 each produce the same product and face a market demand curve given by Q = 5000 – 200P. Firm 1 has a unit (marginal) cost of production ci = 6 while firm 2 has a unit cost of c2 = 10. Firms compete by setting prices and consumers in this market will always purchase from the firm with the lower price. In addition, suppose that firms must choose an integer price. This...

Exercise: Consider a market in which two firms i = 1, 2 produce a homogeneous product at constant marginal cost c = 4, facing total demand described by the linear inverse demand curve P = 16 − Q. First assume that the firms compete by simultaneously choosing prices a la Bertrand. 1. Suppose that F1 expects F2 to set some price p2 above the marginal cost c but below the monopoly price p m. What is F1’s best response BR1(p2)...

Suppose that the demand for marbles is given by Q= 80-5p, where
Q is measured in bags of marbles. There are two firms that supply
the market, and the firms produce identical marbles (i.e., they are
homogenous products). Firm 1 has a constant
marginal cost of $10.00/bag, while firm 2 has a constant
marginal cost of $5.00/bag.

Suppose a market has two firms that sell identical products. These firms face an inverse market demand function of P=120 – Q. Firm 1 has a constant MC=20. Firm 2’s marginal cost is MC=30. Find the Cournot equilibrium price, quantities, and profits for each firm. If these firms were able to perfectly collude, what would be the monopoly equilibrium?
