MATHEMATICAL ECONOMICS
A producer has the possibility of discriminating between the domestic and foreign markets for a product where the demands, respectively, are
?1 = 30 − 0.1?1
?2 = 60 − 0.4?2
????? ???? = 2000 + 20? ?ℎ??? ? = ?1 + ?2 . What price will the producer charge in order to maximize profits (a) with discrimination between markets and (b) without discrimination? (c) Compare the profit differential between discrimination and nondiscrimination.

Consider a profit-maximising firm that has the good fortune of being a monopolist. The firm sells output in a domestic market and exports to a foreign market as well. The domestic market demand curve given as yp (p) = 20 - 2pp and the foreign market demand curve is given as yf(p) = 20 -PF. Total output is y = yp + yr. The monopolist faces a cost function given by c = + y2 + 20. a) Derive the...

A pharmaceutical firm faces the following monthly demands in the U.S. and Mexican markets for its only patented drug: Q(U.S.) = 300,000 - 5,000P(U.S.) Q(Mex) = 240,000 - 8,000P(Mex) where quantities Q represent the number of prescriptions per month and the prices P are denominated in U.S. dollars (i.e., the Mexican demand has already been adjusted for the dollar/peso exchange rate). The marginal cost of the drug is constant at $2 per prescription in both markets. The firms monthly overhead...

The demand curves for each market are QF15-PF OF and Qc are measured in 1000s of units, so you may get decimal values for Q.

1. The table below displays Andy Reid and Bill Belichick's willingness to pay for tickets to watch the Super Bowl, Pro Bowl, and their combined willingness to pay for both tickets. If the NFL sells each ticket individually, the maximum profit the NFL can make from selling the two tickets is dollars. (Assume the marginal costs of production are zero). However, if the NFL were to bundle the two tickets into one package, the bundle would be priced at dollars...

Two firms compete by choosing price. Their demand functions are; Q1=80−P1+P2 and Q2=80+P1+P2. where P1 and P2 are the prices charged by each firm, respectively, and Q1 and Q2 are the resulting demands. Note that the demand for each good depends only on the difference in prices; if the two firms colluded and set the same price, they could make that price as high as they wanted, and earn infinite profits. Marginal costs are zero. Suppose the two firms set...
