We have Stackelberg competition with Firm 1 moving first. We
have two firms with identical MC=60. Firm 2 has to pay a fixed (and
sunk) cost of 225. Market demand is p=100-x. What is the market
quantity?

Firm 1 moves first and chooses its quantity. Firm 2 moves second and decides whether to enter on not. If it enters it pays a fixed cost of F=225. If it enters it then chooses its quantity. Both firms have MC=60. Market demand is p=100-x. What is the market quantity? Enter a number only (round to 2 decimal places). Numeric Answer:
6. (6 pts) In a Stackelberg model of quantity competition, firm 1 moves first by commiting to a level of output, and firm 2 moves second after observing firm 1's choice. The market inverse demand curve is given by: P = 110-Q and the firms' cost structures are given by: CQ) K10Q where Kis a fixed cost of production (a Suppos A = 0. Find the quantities and profits for each firm in the subgame perfect Nash equiibru. (4 pts)...
In the Stackelberg model we saw in class there were two firms 1 and 2. Suppose that the market demand is p(Q) = 60−Q, where as in class Q is the aggregate quantity. The const function for firm 1 is c1(q1) = 10q1 and the cost function for firm 2 is c2(q2) = q2. Firm 1 is the leader and Firm 2 is the follower. (a) Solve for the follow’s reaction function, and the leader’s maximization problem. (b) Describe the...
3. Two firms that are engaged in Stackelberg competition face the market inverse demand curve P-100-2Q, where Q is the total 22-0.Sqy, what is Firm 1's (the first-mover's) nverse demand une output, q2. Each firm produces the product at a constant marginal cost of $22. If Firm 2's reaction function is P 56-4 OP=100-2(92-22 + 0.050;) OP=88-1.541 P 88-24
P = 225 - q
TC = 5q
MC = MR
MC = 5
MR = 225 - 2q
5 = 225 - 2q
2q = 225 - 5
q = 220/2
= 110
P = 225 - 110
= 115
Duopoly Continuing with our latinum market example from last week, imagine that the government has noted the extreme restriction in latinum supplied and wishes to remedy the situation. While regulators are not willing to completely reopen the market, they...
The market for widgets consists of two firms that produce identical products. Competition in the market is such that each of the firms independently produces a quantity of output, and these quantities are then sold in the market at a price that is determined by the total amount produced by the two firms. Firm 2 is known to have a cost advantage over firm 1. A recent study found that the (inverse) market demand curve faced by the two firms...
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...
1. Suppose there are only two firms in the marker, firm A and firm B. They produce identical products. Firm A and firm B have the same constant marginal cost, MCA MCB ACA ACB 25 The market demand function is given by 0-400 4P. e. Calculate the profits for each firm in the Cournot model. f. g. Is the monopoly outcome stable? If firm A operates under the monopoly outcome, h. Graph the monopoly outcome, cournot outcome and perfect competition...
1.Consider an industry with only two firms that produce identical products. Each of the firms only incurs a fixed cost of $1000 to produce and marginal cost is 20. The market demand function is as follows: Q=q1+q2=400-P a. Assuming that the firms form a cartel, calculate the profit-maximizing quantity of output, price and profits b. If the firms choose to behave as in the Cournot model, what would be the profit- maximizing quantities of output, price and profits? c. if...
