can someone help me with question 9?
QUESTION 9 A homogeneous products duopoly faces a market demand function given by P-a-Q, where Q Q1 + Q2 and a-300. Both firms have constant marginal costs MC-100. There are no fixed costs a) What is firm 1's optimal quantity given that firm 2 produces an output of 50 units per year? And what is frm's 1 quantity if firm 2 produces 20 units? 4 marks) b) Derive the equation of each firm's...
Demand in a market dominated by two firms (a Cournot duopoly) is determined according to: P = 300 – 4(Q1 + Q2), where P is the market price, Q1 is the quantity demanded by Firm 1, and Q2 is the quantity demanded by Firm 2. The marginal cost and average cost for each firm is constant; AC=MC = $74. The cournot-duopoly equilibrium profit for each firm is
