Suppose two firms compete as Bertrand duopolists for an identical product, where demand is given by Q = 5000 – 50P and both firms have marginal cost of 10 per unit of output. If firm 1 has capacity of 1500 and firm 2 has capacity of 2000, what will the equilibrium price be in this market?
Suppose that identical duopoly firms have constant marginal costs of $0 per unit. Firm 1 faces ademand function of q1 = 100 – 2p1 + p2, where q1 is Firm 1’s output, p1 is Firm 1’s price, and p2 isFirm 2’s price. Similarly, the demand Firm 2 faces is q2 = 100 – 2p2 + p1. Please solve for theBertrand equilibrium.
