- This profit-maximizing firm will produce Blank 1 units. What price will this profit-maximizing firm charge? $Blank 2 (Do NOT enter the '$' in your response. Enter only the whole dollar amount; do NOT enter cents.) If the industry was perfectly competitive instead of monopolistic, then market output would be Blank 3 units and market price would be $Blank 4. (Do NOT enter the '$' in your response. Enter only the whole dollar amount; do NOT enter cents.)arrow_forwardSuppose ‘Car Today’ is the only firm selling cars in a small, rural town in Victoria. Assume that people in the town do not want to leave the town to buy cars. Also assume that there is a constant marginal cost for ‘Car Today’. 1. What type of market structure do you think ‘Car Today’ belongs to? Why? Explain in 100 words or less. 2. Draw a graph for Car Today that shows the firm carrying out perfect price discrimination (first degree). Label the producer surplus, consumer surplus, and deadweight loss in the graph. 3. Now suppose the city council hears of Car Today’ practices and outlaws price discrimination (and assume they can successfully enforce it). Draw a NEW GRAPH showing what Car Today will do to maximize profits. Label the producer surplus, consumer surplus, and deadweight loss in the graph.arrow_forwardPrice II.

- 3. Consider the Bertrand competition with differentiated products. Firm A's demand is qA = 12 – 4pA + 4pB and firm B's demand is qB = 18 – 6pB + 4pA: The marginal cost of firm A is 4 while the marginal cost of firm B is 3. What are the prices the firms will charge?arrow_forwardMONOPOLISTIC COMPETITION 1. Suppose that the cost of production is given by the following function: CT = 100 + Q2 and that the demand is given by P = 80 - Q. a. Determine the level of maximization.b. Determine the value of CT and ITc. Check that the IMg = CMg CT (Total cost) IMg (marginal income) CMg (marginal cost) Algebraically if the demand curve in the monopoly is a function of quantity, the demand curve is a straight line. P = a - bQWhere a is the ordinate to the origin, b the slope and Q the quantitySo if IT = P x QWe have that (a - bQ) Q = aQ - bQ2IT = aQ - bQ2And therefore the marginal income is the derivative of IT or what is equal to the variation of total income between the variation of the quantity.Therefore the IMg = derive the quantity in the function aQ - bQ2IMg = a - 2bQ Consider these functions when conducting monopoly exercises.arrow_forwardplease helparrow_forward
