Exercise 1 Let consider the Cournot game with I = {1, 2}, let the inverse demand function be equal to p(Q) = 250 - 100 (Q = 41 + 2) and the non linear cost function C(q) = 72 + 2q for both firms. Compute the Cournot-Nash equilibrium. Indicate also some collusive outputs. Do the same with I = {1,2,3}. Question 1 Thinks to be the manager of a firm and you are competing in a duopoly à la Bertrand...
Please answer the following question fully and in detail! Consider a Bertrand duopoly with two firms 1,2 who sell the same good. The demand curve of the good is given by Q = 30 − p if p < 30 and Q = 0 if p ≥ 20. Both firms have the same constant unit cost 5. Firms 1,2 set prices p1, p2. If firms set different prices, then the firm which sets the minimum price of the two, receives...
Please answer the following question fully and in detail! Consider a Bertrand duopoly with two firms 1,2 who sell the same good. The demand curve of the good is given by Q = 15 − p if p < 15 and Q = 0 if p ≥ 15. Both firms have the same constant unit cost 2. Firms 1,2 set prices p1, p2. If firms set different prices, then the firm which sets the minimum price of the two, receives...

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...
Two identical firms compete as a Cournot duopoly. The inverse market demand they face is P = 120-2Q. The total cost function for each firm is TC1(Q) = 4Q1. The total cost function for firm 2 is TC2(Q) = 2Q2. What is the output of each firm? Find: Q1 = ? Q2 = ?
Two firms are participating in a Stackelberg duopoly. The demand function in the market is given by Q = 2000 − 2P. Firm 1’s total cost is given by C1(q1) = (q1) 2 and Firm 2’s total cost is given by C2(q2) = 100q2. Firm 1 is the leader and Firm 2 is the follower. (1) Write down the inverse demand function and the maximization problem for Firm 1 given that Firm 2 is expected to produce R2(q1). (2) Compute...
