Suppose Madison Gas and Electric (MGE) is a natural monopoly for electricity. That is the case where no firm can produce the total quantity in a market more cheaply than multiple firms because there is a large fixed cost or economies of scale in this industry. The demand curve, average total cost curve, marginal cost curve, and margin revenue for this firm are shown in the picture below.

Suppose an industry has a duopoly structure. Duopolist 1 has a cost function given by: c1 (y1) = (y1)2 for y1 ≥ 0 . Duopolist 2 has a cost function given by: c2(y2 ) = 12y2 for y2 ≥ 0. Denoting total output produced in the industry by y = (y1 + y2), the inverse demand function for the good produced in the industry is given by: p = 100 – y Find the reaction function of each duopolist. Using...
19. Assume that marginal revenue equals rising marginal cost at 100 units of output. At this output level, the firm's average fixed cost is $6 and its average total cost is $10. The price of the product is $8. In order to maximize profit, the competitive firm should: a. shut down b. produce 100 units c. produce more than 100 units d. produce less than 100 units e. indeterminate 20. If the entry of new firms into a perfectly competitive...
