In each exercise, presume a good representation of market demand can be expressed with
P = 40,000 – Q, wherein (a), the intercept in each simulation, is 40000 and that (b), the slope of the demand curve, in absolute value terms, is 1.
1. Using the CournotSolver, assume each firm’s marginal cost of producing an automobile for sale in this market is $15,000, that Firm 1 has fixed costs of $50,000,000 and Firm 2 has fixed costs of $40,000,000. Remember, in the Cournot world, a simultaneous quantity choice is made by each firm as a function of what each thinks the other firm will choose. Their choice then serves as their “no regret” choice of their output given what they thought the other firm would choose, and together their output choices comprise the Nash equilibrium, with neither firm being under an inclination to alter their Q choice.

Market inverse demand for a homogeneous product is P = 100 - Q. On the supply-side, there is a Cournot duopoly; each firm faces a constant marginal cost of 10. At the Cournot-Nash equilibrium, the market price will be:

Consider the following oligopoly model. The market demand is p(Q) = 100−Q. There are three identical firms 1, 2 and 3 producing the homogeneous product. Each firm has a constant marginal cost of 0. The three firms choose their outputs simultaneously , without observing the quantity decisions by others. Find the Cournot-Nash equilibrium in this model. Obtain the profits in equilibrium for each firm.
