Two firms with a constant MC and no fixed cost compete in a Cournot fashion. Firm A's MC=20 and Firm B's MC=40. Market demand is given by x=180-p. The government imposes a per unit tax of ?=10 which the producer pays. What is market price?

Cournot Oligopoly and Number of Firms In a Cournot oligopoly, each firm assumes that its rivals do not change their output based on the output that it produces. Ilustration: A Cournot oligopoly has two firms, YandZ. Yobservesthe market demand curve and the number of units that Z produces. It assumes that Z does notchange its output regardless of the number of units that it (Y) produces, so chooses a production level that maximizes its profits. The general effects of a...

14. Two identical firms compete as a Cournot duopoly. The demand they face is P = 100 - 2Q. The cost function for each firm is C(Q) = 4Q. In equilibrium, the deadweight loss is: (a) $128, (b)$256, (c) $384, (d) $512, (e) none of them are true.. 15. Two identical firms compete as a Cournot duopoly. The demand they face is P = 100 - 2Q.

Consider an oligopolistic market with demand represented by P=250-5Q. Assume that the MC for each firm is MC 50. a) If the firms each have the same MC and the market is characterized by price competition (like Bertrand competition), what will be the equilibrium price? Quantity? Industry profits? b) If the few firms are, instead able to perfectly collude, what will be the equilibrium price? Quantity? Industry profits? c) If the market is characterized by quantity competition (Cournot) and there...

Two firms, Acme and Roadco, produce anvils, and compete with each other as Cournot oligopolists (i.e. they compete in quantities). The (inverse) demand for anvils is given by P(Q)=500-3Q. Both firms have constant marginal costs of MC=50 and no fixed costs. Hint: the partial derivative of (c-bX-bY)X with respect to X is c-2bX-bY. What is the equilibrium consumer and producer surplus in the market? (5 points)

4. There are two firms (Firm 1 and Firm 2) compete in a market for instant noodles which are considered to be identical by their consumers. Suppose each firm has the following cost function. ?(??) = 120??; where ? = 1 & 2 The total market demand for instant noodles is represented by following demand function ? = 600 – ?; where ? = ?1 + ?2 Answer the following questions. a. If both firms maximize their profit by considering...
