1. A company has estimated that its total cost (TC) function is: TC = 12,000 + 60Q Where Q refers to quantity. The marketing department of this company is unable to estimate the demand function for the company but believes the price elasticity for the company's products is (-)4. Given this information, calculate the profit maximising price
Suppose that all firms in a constant-cost industry have the following long-run cost curve:c(q) = 4q2 + 100q + 100The demand in this market is given by QD = 1280 - 2p. Suppose the number of firms in the market is restricted to 80a. Derive the supply curve with this restriction. Find the market equilibrium price and quantity with the restriction.b. If firms are allowed to buy and sell these permits in an open market, what will be the rental price of permits? Will firm’s that own permits make profit? Briefly explain.c. How much deadweight loss is generated by the permit system? Provide a graph showing the region of this deadweight loss.d. Suppose the government abandons the permit system and simply imposes a fixed fee on firms in the market. If the fee is set equal to the permit price you found in c., what will be the equilibrium price, quantity, number of firms and deadweight loss?

Suppose market demand for mobile operators is expressed by Q=90-3P where Q is measured by calls in hours. There are three firms that supply the market: TRCell,VFone, and Avea .Avea provide hourly calls at a unit cost of 20$, where as TRCell& VFone has a unit cost equal to 10 Suppose firms are competing in price( no capacity constraints ) a) What is the market price? Why? b) How much does each firm sell in Bertrand equilibrium? c) What are firms’ profits? Is there any way for all firms to get higher profits
The supply curves for the only two firms in a competitive industry are given by: S₁: P = 2Q1 S2: P = 2 + Q2, where Q1 is the output of firm 1 and Q2 is the output of firm 2.

The demand function of dog breeders for electric dog polishers is qb = max{200−p, 0}, and the demand function of pet owners for electric dog polishers is qo = max{90 − 4p, 0}. (a) At price 150, what is the price elasticity of dog breeders’ demand for electric dog polishers? (it's a negative number) (b) At price 15, what is the price elasticity of pet owner’ demand for electric dog polishers? (it's a negative number) (c) Find a nonzero price at which there is positive total demand for dog polishers and at which there is a kink in the demand curve. $_____. What is the market demand function for prices below the kink. What is the market demand function for prices above the kink? ______ + P
Question 1 Sal's Streaming Company streams TV shows to subscribers in the US and Canada. Demand is Qus 50 (1/3)Pus - QCA 80 (2/3)P CA = - where Q's are in thousands of subscriptions per year and P's are the subscription prices per year. The cost of providing Q units of service is given by TC = 1000 + 30Q, where Q = Qus+ QCA (a) What are the profit-maximizing prices and quantities for the US and Canadian markets? (b) As a consequence of a new VPN service that Facebook has developed, subscribers in Canada are now able to get the US streams and vice versa, so Sal can charge only a single price. What is the profit-maximizing single price that he should charge? (c) In which situation is Sal better off? In terms of consumers' surplus which situation do people in Canada prefer and which do people in the US prefer? Why?
Consider a competitive market for red lentils with 100 identical farmers in Horsham Victoria, a competitive market price of $5 and the following MC for each farmer: MC = $0.05Q Also consider the following market demand function: QD a) Calculate the optimal level of production (in tonnes) for each farmer (show workings) = = 1000 - 40P b) Assuming 100 lentil farmers of equal size how many tonnes of lentils in total will be supplied in the entire market? (show all workings) c) Consider that the government now imposes a 25% tax on producers, calculate i) the new equilibrium level of output for each firm (hint - think about how this affects each farmer's marginal cost), and ii) new total supply in the entire market (show all workings)
If the inverse demand function is P=10-Q and total cost is C=2Q, what is the optimal fixed cost to be charged in a two part pricing ?
