Use the following information in answering questions 9- 13. Assume persons of type 1 value quality level z and the product itself such that the reservation price for one unit is 5+3z. Similarly, for a person of type 2 the reservation price is 10 + z. The cost of producing the product is 2 and the cost of each unit of z is 2. Assume that z can be equal to 0 or 1 or 2 9. The optimal quality...

§ The inverse demand function of a group of consumers for a given type of goods is given by the following: ! = −10& + 2000 [$] where q is the demand and ! is the unit price for this product. 1) For a price of 1000 $/unit, calculate the consumption, the consumers’ gross surplus, the revenue collected by the producers and the consumers’ net surplus. 2) If the price increases by 20%, calculate the change in consumption and the...
Use the following information to answer questions 7 - 12. Suppose there is one buyer located at points 1 through 11, one unit of distance apart. These buyers purchase at most one unit of the product when its price is less than or equal to $10. Assume the MC and AC of producing the product is $5. Transport costs are constant per unit of distance. 7. If a seller must sell at only one point, 1-11, the profit maximizing location...
