A duopoly market in which demand is given by 180-2q. The total cost for firm 1 is TC = 60q1, the total cost for firm 2 is TC1 = 66q2. The good is homogeneous.
A) Solve for when Firm 1 chooses the quantity before firm 2. What is the subgame Nash equilibrium?
b) Solve when the firms compete simultaneously. What is the Nash equilibrium?

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 = ?

1. Consider the following asymmetric version of the Cournot duopoly model. Two firms compete by simultaneously choosing the quantities (q, and q2) they produce. Their products are homogeneous, and market demand is given by p- 260-2Q, where Q-q +q2. Firm 1 has a cost advantage; Firm 1 produces at zero cost, while Firm 2 produces at a constant average cost of 40. (The difference in costs is what makes this an asymmetric game.) a. Derive both firms' profit functions, as...

2. Two firms produce homogeneous products. Market demand is given by Q = 40-P, and each firm faces a marginal cost of production of 4 per unit The timing of the game is as follows. In Period 1, firm 1 chooses the quantity q it will sell. In Period 2, firm 2 (who observed firm 1s choice in period 1) chooses whether or not to enter the market. If firm 2 chooses to enter it must pay an entry fee...

Consider a three firm oligopoly in which the market demand for the homogeneous good is given by q = 24 - p, and costs are zero. Suppose firm 1 and 2 simultaneously pick their output, and then firm 3, observing these choices, picks its output (i.e. two “leaders”, one “follower”). Find the subgame perfect equilibrium for this model. Also show that the outcome in which each firm produces 6 units of output can be supported as Nash equilibrium, but not...

Question 5 Demand in a market dominated by two firms (a Cournot duopoly) is determined according to: P = 200 – 2(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 = $60. The cournot-duopoly equilibrium profit for each firm is _____. Hint: Write your answer to two decimal places. QUESTION 6...
