) Repeat the above, excluding Bertrand Competition and Stackleberg Competition, for a model where firms have a fixed cost for all production greater than zero of 5 dollars. Using the zero profits as a guide for all possible entrants what would be an outcome perfect competition?

4. Bertrand Competition (29 points) Consider a Betrand Model. The market demand is P-180-Q. Consumers only buy from the firm charging a lower price. If the two firms charge the same price, they share the market equally. The marginal cost for firm 1 is 30, and the marginal cost for firm 2 is also 30. There are no fixed costs. A.

Which of the following statements is correct? a. The Bertrand model is a game involving two identical firms, producing identical products at a constant marginal (and average) cost, and, simultaneously, choosing prices. b. The Cournot model is similar to the Bertrand model except that firms are assumed to simultaneously choose quantities rather than prices. c. The Stackelberg model is similar to a duopoly version of the Cournot model except that—rather than simultaneously choosing the quantities of their identical outputs—firms move...

An example of market power would be the domestic oil industry, where the producers ‘go along with’ price hikes authored by OPEC through restricting supply. This action would result in shifting supply inward or leftward, driving up price, reducing consumer surplus and increasing producer surplus (assuming they are operating in the inelastic range, total revenue to the firms) and increasing deadweight loss. true or false?

3. The Bertrand Model with differentiated products has given rise to the principle of "maximal product differentiation." What is this principle? Why would firms want to be maximally differentiated? Are there any situations where firms would not want to be maximally differentiated? If so, describe them.
