Consider a market with four firms. Firms A and B have a marginal cost of $7. Firm C has a marginal cost of $11. Firm D has a marginal cost of $5. What occurs if the firms compete in the Bertrand model? Group of answer choices None of the other answers are correct. Firm D will capture the entire market with a price of $6.99. All four firms will each have one quarter of the market with a price of $11. Firms A and B will each have half the market with a price of $7.00. Firm D will capture the entire market with a price of $5.00.
