hale's one-stop gas and auto service compete with Murray's gas and service mart. the local demand is given by P=2.5-0.01Q.
Hale's MC function is MCH: qH=0.35qH
Murray's MC function is MCM: qM=0.3qM
find hale's and Murray's reaction function; then find the Cournot solution. (price and quantities)

2. There are 9 fimms compete Cournot in an industry. The industry demand curve is given by Q- 55-p. a. Assume each firm has cost function C(q) = 54. Find the total industry output Q, the price, each firm's profits and the Herfindahl index. b. Assume instead each firm faces a cost function C(q) =iqi, i = 1..9 (That is, MC1 = 1, MC2 = 2,...,MC, = 9.) Find the total industry output and the industry price. (Hint: Do not...
Assumptions Market Demand: P = 14- Qrotal Two P = 16- 1 [HD] Groups: P = 12- 2(LD] (HD = high demand; LD = low demand] Incumbent/Entrant: P=14-01-ge Duopoly: P = 14 - 119 +22) Marginal Cost: MC = 4 Entrant's Total Cost = 9+4ge Capacity Constraint: 5/firm Cournot Duopoly 1. Take derivative of demand function in terms of qı (dq1/dP). = MR1. 2. Set MR1 = MC. That's Firm l's reaction function. 3. Repeat for Firm 2. 4. Where...
