Scenario:
Madison Company is a large manufacturer and distributor of cake supplies. It is based in Chicago
(Headquarters) and Trinidad. It sends supplies to firms throughout the United States and the United
Kingdom. It markets its supplies through periodic mass mailings of catalogs to those firms. Its
clients can make orders over the phone and Madison ships the supplies upon demand.
The main competition for Madison’s in the United States comes from one U.S. firm and one
Canadian firm. A British firm has a small share of the U.S. market but is at a disadvantage
because of its distance. The British firm’s marketing and transportation costs in the U.S. market
are relatively high. Given that one-third of the company sales are exported to the United Kingdom and invoices for
exports are in US dollars, the demand for its exports is highly sensitive to the value of the British
pound. In order to maintain its inventory at a proper level, it must
products which is somewhat dependent on the forecasted value of the pound.

- Q3 The Competition Bureau in Canada wants to increase competition and reduce monopoly power. Thus it it worries about industry concentration Assume that Canada's production of plastic sheds, which we further assume is an oligopoly. Collusive control over the price of plastic sheds in Canada may permit oligopolists in the industry to: Multiple Choice advertise and take advantage of the competitors in the Canadian plastic shed industry. reduce uncertainty, increase profits, and possibly limit entry of new firms in the Canadian plastic shed industry. increase product demand, increase product supply, and lower cost in the Canadian plastic shed industry. achieve economies of scale, reduce costs, and prevent price cheating in the Canadian plastic shed industry. use new technology, achieve economies of scale, and get government subsidies for the Canadian plastic shed industry.6. Two firms, Firm 1 and Firm 2 and are engaged in Cournot competition. The inverse demand they are facing is given by p = 50-q, with p being the price of the good, and q being total quantity demanded, given by q = 91 +92, where 9₁ and 92 are the productions of firm 1 and 2 respectively. The total cost of firm 1 is TC1(91) = q and of firm 2 is TC₂ (92) = 292. (a) Find the Cournot equilibrium and the price that corresponds to it. (b) Find the Lerner Index of each firm.Suppose button industry is characterized by monopolistic competition with external economy. China is currently the dominant producer of buttons.

As a result of its control of international sigmantium production, Globocorp Enterprises is now the world's only supplier of mobiles and it therefore operates as a profit maximising monopolist in this market. Their marginal cost of production for each mobile is $160 per phone. Below is a table of prices Globocorp can charge for each mobile that it produces, and the corresponding quantities sold on any given day. Price ($/mobile phone) 400 380 360 340 320 300. Quantity (mobile phones) 45000 50000 55000 60000 65000 70000 What is Globocorp Enterprises' daily revenue at the profit maximising level of production? Answer to the nearest whole number (with no decimal places or $ sign), and only use the options in the table above.Economics Remove flag Anna, Bill, and Charles are competitors in a local market, and each is trying to decide whether it is worthwhile to advertise, If all of them advertise, each will earn a profit of $5000. If none of them advertise, each will earn a profit of $8000, If only one of them advertises, the one who advertises will earn a profit of $10,000 and the other two will each earn $2000. If two of them advertise, those two will each earn a profit of $6000 and the other one will earn $1000. If all three follow their dominant strategy, what will Anna do, and how much will she earn? Select one: a. Anna will advertise and earn $5000. b. Anna will advertise and earn $6000. C. Anna will not advertise and will earn $8000, d. Anna will advertise and earn $10,000.
- Question 25 Consider two cigarette companies, PM Inc. and Brown Inc. If neither company advertises, the two companies split the market and earn $60 million each. If they both advertise, they again split the market, but profits are lower by $20 million since each company must bear the cost of advertising. Yet, if one company advertises while the other does not, the one that advertises attracts customers from the other. In this case, the company that advertises earns $70 million while the company that does not advertise earns only $30 million. What will these two companies do if they behave as individual profit maximizers? Both companies will advertise. Brown Inc. earns $40. Neither company will advertise. Brown Inc. earns $60. Both companies will advertise. PM Inc. earns $60. One company will advertise, and the other will not. Brown Inc. earns $70.Breakdown of a cartel agreement Consider a town in which only two residents, Sean and Yvette, own wells that produce water safe for drinking.
