Question

Please for provide step by step solutions

1.Suppose that Pepsi and Coke are competing in a horizontally differentiated Bertrand market and setting prices.

Qo-60-3PC + 2PP

Coke face marginal cost MCc = 6 and pespsi faces marginal cost MCp = 4

(a) Write the equation for the demand for coke in terms of price Pc as a function of Pp and Qc.

(b) Determine the marginal revenue for Coke as a function of Pp and Qc.

(c) Find the equation tha ttells how much Coke would produce for any price Pp using the above.

(d) Find the reaction function for Coke (Pc as a function of Pp ) using your answer above.

(e) Find the reaction function for Pepsi.

(d) Determine the Bertrand equilibrium

    Suppose the demand for Pepsi is qp = 54 - 2pp + 1p. The demand for Coke is qc = 54 - 2pc + 1pp. Each firm faces a constant marginal cost of zero. Determine the Bertrand equilibrium prices. What happens to the Bertrand equilibrium prices and profits if increased differentiation causes the demand for Pepsi to become qp = 104 - 2pp + 1pc while the demand for Coke remains unchanged?
