2. Consider a Cournot competition environment with one good and two firms, Firm 1 and Firm 2. The (pure) strategy space of Firm 1 is S₁ = [0, 1], and the strategy s₁ of Firm 1 corresponds to the amount of the good they produce. Similarly, the (pure) strategy space of Firm 2 is S2 = [0, 1], and the strategy s2 of Firm 2 corresponds to the amount of the good they produce. If Firm 1 were to produce quantity s₁ and Firm 2 were to produce quantity s2, the prevailing price in the good market would be 1 — 81 — 82, the utility of Firm 1 would be their profit, u₁ (81, 82) = (1-81-82 - c)81, and the utility of Firm 2 would be their profit, u2($1, $2) = (1-81-82-c)s2, where 0 ≤ c< 1 is the marginal cost of production for both firms. (a) Find the pure-strategy Nash equilibria of this game. (b) Are there other Nash equilibria in this game.
Calculation Question 5 Suppose a market demand is given by Q = 300 – 4p, where p represents the product price and Q represents the output level. The market consists of two firms with identical costs given by C – 20 + 5q, where q represents the output level of a firm. Both firms produce an identical product and do not collude with one another. a) Derive the reaction functions of each firm. b) What is the Nash equilibrium output level for each firm? Show your calculation. c) What is the price charged by each firm for the product? Show your calculation. d) Calculate the profit (if any) obtained by each firm and for the industry as a whole.
Can you show me the answer of question c and d? Thank you so much for your help
Please no written by hand and no image (Bertrand's duopoly game with discrete prices) Consider the variant of the example of Bertrand's duopoly game in this section in which each firm is restricted to choose a price that is an integral number of cents. Take the monetary unit to be a cent, and assume that c is an integer and a>c+!. Is (c,c) a nash equilibrium of this game? Is there any other nash equilibrium?
Two companies are the only Snowplow merchants in a small town. Inverse market demand curve is P 100- 10Q, where Q=ql + q2 (Firm l's output =q1; Firm 2's output = q2). Each firm has marginal costs of $25. In the Nash equilibrium in this market, the market price is $ O 50 O 40 25 60
Two firms, X and Y, are involved in a price war. The demand equations for each firm are the following: Qx = 52 - 2Px + Py Qy = 52 - 2Py + Px Further, assume the cost of each unit of out is constant at $4. What is the Nash equilibrium of this game? (Use the best response functions in a graph to answer) There is no Nash equilibrium O $24 $20 $22
Part 2: First Long Question There are two French bakeries in a small town: Le Meilleur Croissant (C), owned by Camille, and Le Meilleur Pain Au Chocolat (P), owned by Paul. In each period of an infinitely repeated game, they compete a la Bertrand, with market demand given by Q(pmin) = 10 - Pmin- Even though they sell identical goods, they have different marginal costs: cc = 2 and %3D Cp = 4 (Paul bakes just as well but is bad at business decisions). There are no fixed costs. Question 6 Turns out that Camille and Paul are married, and so they choose prices to maximize the joint profits of the two firms. Because both love baking and love each other, they also jointly decide that both firms should be selling positive amounts in their optimal plan. What prices do they choose? Pc = 6, pp = 11 Pc = 6.5, pp = 6.5 Pc = 6, pp = 6 Pc = 7, pp = 7 %3D O pc = 6, pp = 7

Time remaining: 00:09:51 Economics The market demand function is Q=10,000-1,000p. Each firm has a marginal cost of m=$0.16. Firm 1, the leader, acts before Firm 2, the follower. Solve for the Stackelberg-Nash equilibrium quantities, prices, and profits. Compare your solution to the Cournot-Nash equilibrium. The Stackelberg-Nash equilibrium quantities are: q1=___________ units and q2=____________units The Stackelberg-Nash equilibrium price is: p=$_____________ Profits for the firms are profit1=$_______________ and profit2=$_______________ The Cournot-Nash equilibrium quantities are: q1=______________units and q2=______________units The Cournot-Nash equilibrium price is: p=$______________ Profits for the firms are profit1=$_____________ and profit2=$_______________
Jane and Sara are competing orange juice salespersons in Amherst. Their stands are next to each other on a street and consumers regard them as identical. The marginal cost of an orange juice is $1. The demand for orange juice every hour is Q = 20 − P where P is the lowest price between the two salespersons. If their prices are equal they split demand equally. a. If they set prices simultaneously (prices can be any real number), what is the Nash equilibrium price? b. If, against what we have assumed in class, orange juice salespersons have to charge prices in whole dollars ($1, $2, $3, etc), what are the Nash equilibrium prices? c. Assuming whole dollar pricing, if Jane sets her price before Sara, what price would she charge? Answer all 3 parts
