Consider a market with two firms. Suppose that that firm 2 that invests in a new technology that changes it cost structure from firm 1. Market demand is Q = 18 – P, firm 1 faces costs G; (21) = {Q}, and firm 2 has costs, Cz (22) = 3. Consider a Cournot. a. What is firm l's best response function? b. Set up firm 2's profit maximization and solve for firm 2's best response function. c. Find the equilibrium...

Suppose we have a market demand Q = 18 – P and a cost C(Q) 9) = 3Q?. Suppose that that firm 2 that invests in a new technology that changes it cost structure from firm 1. Market demand is still Q = 18 – P, firm 1 still faces costs 1 f(0) == Q}, and now firm 2 has costs, C3(Qx) = 23. Consider a Cournot model again. a. What is firm 1's best response function? b.

Suppose the two firms cannot collude and instead compete in the Cournot Model in the market described in question 1 (market demand is still Q=18-P) with the same cost (C(Q)=1/2 *Q^2). Set up firm 1’s profit maximization. Solve for firm 1’s best response function. Solve for firm 1’s quantity, firm 2’s quantity, the equilibrium market quantity, and price. Show your work. Is this a Nash equilibrium? Do consumers prefer the Cournot competition equilibrium over the collusion of the two firms...

7. There are two firms that compete according to Cournot competition. Firm 1 has a cost function C1(91) = 2491 +5. Firm 2 has a cost function C(92) = 1022 +10. These firms cannot discriminate, so there is just one price that is determined by the aggregate demand. The inverse demand equation is P(Q) = 80 - Where total supply Q = 91 +92. (a) Setup the profit maximization problem for firm 1 with all necessary equations plugged in. (2...

Guided Notes Ant Jble #3: Cournot oligopoly (12 pts) consider a Cournot oligopoly in which the market demand curve is Q-60- P. There are 2 firms in this oligopoly, so this means Q-qi + q2. The firms in this market are not identical: Firm l's cost function is ei(q)= 2q , while Firm 2's cost function is cz(q:)-33q2. a) Write downa profit function for each firm. эрп b) Using your answer to a), find a best-response function for each firm....

1. Consider two Cournot duopolists. Each firm sells a homogenous product and has a MC = c per unit, and no fixed costs. Market demand is P = a−bQ, where market quantity sold Q = q1 +q2, where q1 is firm 1’s output and q2 is firm 2’s output. Each firm simultaneously chooses its quantity to sell, then lets price clear the market. a. What is firm 1’s best response function (or reaction function)? b. Solve for the profit maximising...
