Note:hand written solution should be avoided. The plastic industry is Argentina is dominated by two firmsPlastergina and Totopo. The market demand curve in theplastic industry is given by Q = 600 - 3p where Q is thequantity demanded per month, and p is the market price indollars. Firms in this industry supply quantities everymonth, and the resulting market price occurs at the point atwhich the quantity demanded equals the total amountsupplied. Each firm has an identical constant marginal costof: MC = 80 a. Find the Cournot equilibrium quantities foreach firm. What is the Cournot equilibrium market price? b.Assuming that Plastergina is the Stackelberg leader, findthe Stackelberg equilibrium quantities for each firm. Whatis the Stackelberg equilibrium price? c. Calculate andcompare the profit of each firm under the Cournot andStackelberg equilibria. Under which equilibrium is overallindustry profit the greatest, and why?

Demand curve shows the relationship between the price and quantity demand.Marginal cost refers to…

Bernardo Beefmaster has 50 cull cows that average 1100 Ibs and he purchased them for $60/cwt. He fed the cows for 55 days and sold them at 1260 Ibs for $65/cwt. The cows averaged about 30 lbs of feed per day, and cost $7/cwt. Calculate the average daily gain, feed efficiency (feed:gain), feed only cost of gain, breakeven per pound and total, and the total margin. WHAT IS THE BREAKEVEN VALUE PER POUND?

At what quantity of bags will profits be maximized? A Use the profit maximizing rule, MR ≥ MC, buy 300 bags. B Use the profit maximizing rule, MR ≥ MC, buy 200 bags. C Use Qb = F/(MR-AVC) where Qb is the breakeven quantity to be determined, the optimal quantity of bags is 300. D Use Qb = F/(MR-AVC) where Qb is the breakeven quantity to be determined, the optimal quantity of bags is 200.
