Consider a market with Stackelberg competition. The inverse demand curve is P = a−b Q, with a=13 and b=3. Firm 1 is the leader and produces at constant marginal costs equal to zero. Firm 2 is the follower and has the cost function: C(q) = cq^2, with c=5. (Note the square on q). What is the equilibrium quantity of firm 1?

Consider a Stackelberg price-leader duopoly. There are two firms: A leader and a follower. Assume marginal cost to be zero. The market demand is given as: p = a-bq: Show that: (a) The leaders profit-maximizing output q is the same as a monopolist in this market. But, the leaders profit and the market price are lower compared to monopoly. The followers output is one-half the output of the leader. (b)Leaders output is lower than when two firms behave as Cournot...

2. (30 pts) Consider a Stackelberg game of quantity competition in cigarettes between Philip Morris (biggest brand is Marlboro) and RJ Reynolds (biggest brand is Camel). Phillip Morris is the leader, and Reynolds is the follower. Market demand is described by the inverse demand function P 1000 4Q. Each firm has a constant unit cost of production equal to 20. a) Solve for the Nash equilibrium outcome in quantities, market price, and variable profits b) Suppose Reynold's unit cost of...

Fill in the Blanks Stackelberg Leader-Follower duopolists face a market demand curve given by P = 90 - Q where Q is total market demand. Each firm can produce output at a constant marginal cost of 30 per unit. The equilibrium price or the total market is and equilibrium quantity is

Two firms are participating in a Stackelberg duopoly. The demand function in the market is given by Q = 2000 − 2P. Firm 1’s total cost is given by C1(q1) = (q1) 2 and Firm 2’s total cost is given by C2(q2) = 100q2. Firm 1 is the leader and Firm 2 is the follower. (1) Write down the inverse demand function and the maximization problem for Firm 1 given that Firm 2 is expected to produce R2(q1). (2) Compute...

2. (15 pts) Consider a Stackelberg duopoly game of quantity competition in U.S. cigarettes between Philip Morris (PM, biggest brand is Marlboro) and RJ Reynolds (RJR, biggest brand is Camel). Philip Morris is the leader, and Reynolds is the follower. (We will obviously ignore state-minimum pricing and taxes for this question.) Market demand is described by the inverse demand function P 12 0.005Q. Each firm has a constant unit cost of production equal to 2. Prices are in S/pack, and...

Consider two firms with the same constant average and marginal cost, AC = MC = 5 (meaning the cost function is T C1 = 5q1 , T C2 = 5q2 ), facing the market demand curve q1 + q2 = 53 − P . We will use the Stackelberg model to analyze what will happen if one of the firms makes its output decision before the other. What is each firm’s equilibrium output and profit if they behave noncooperatively and...

2. In class we discussed the Stackelberg market competition model in the case where there were two firms sequentially announcing their production quantities qı and q2. Recal that we assumed the firms wish to maximize profit (which equals revenue minus cost) The cost to firm i to produce q, units is cq, and the per unit sales price when Q q2 units are produced in total is P(Q)-α-Q if Q-α and zero otherwise. We assume Suppose now there are three...

2) Consider the Stackelberg Model of Duopoly in the class slides. Assume that Firm 1 and Firm 2 have different marginal costs of productions—that is, Firm 1’s marginal cost of production is c1 and Firm 2’s is c2. Under this assumption, answer the following questions. i) Let Firm 1 choose its quantity first. Find Firm 2’s reaction function and the backwards-induction outcome of the game. Also, find the profit of each firm at the backwards-induction outcome. ii) Let Firm 2...

2) As in the above exercise 1), consider two firms with the same constant average and marginal cost AC=MC =5 facing the market demand curve Q1 + Q2 53- P. Now, let's consider the Stackelberg model in order to analyze what will happen when one of the firms makes its output decision ahead of the other firm Suppose that firm 1 is the Stackelberg leader. How much will each firm produce? What is the resulting market price? How much profit...
