Suppose the cost function of firm A, which produces two goods, is given by
C = 100 – .5Q,0. + Q1)² + (Q;)²
The firm wishes to produce 5 units of good 1 and 4 units of good 2.
1. Do cost complementarities exist? Do economies of scope exist?
2. Firm A is considering selling the subsidiary that produces good 2 to firm B, in
which case it will produce only good 1. What will happen to firm A's costs if it
continues to produce 5 units of good 1?
