Two firms produce the same good and compete against each other in a Cournot market. The market demand for their product is P = 204 - 4Q, and each firm has a constant marginal cost of $12 per unit. Let Q; be the output produced by firm i, where i = 1,2. Then, Firm 1's reaction function is OA. Q₁ = 24-0.5Q₂. OB. Q₁ = 25.5-0.5Q2. OC. Q₁ = 24. D. Q₁ = 24-Q₂. O E. None of the above.

Consider the following Cournot duopoly. Both firms produce a homogenous good. The demand function is Q = 100 -2P, where Q is the total quantity produced. Firm 1's cost function is TC(q,)=59, + 1. Firm 2's marginal cost of production is c =6 with probability 0.5 and c5 =3 with probability 0.5. Firm 2 knows its own cost function and firm 1's cost function. Firm 1 knows its own cost function and the probability distribution of firm 2's marginal cost. How much does firm 2 produce in a Bayesian Nash Equilibrium? O 175/6 if the marginal cost is high and 193/6 if the marginal cost is low O 86/3 if the marginal cost is high and 98/6 if the marginal cost is low O 92/3 98/6

Consider an industry with 2 firms engaging in quantity competition and facing the market demand function as Q = 200 – 4P. Suppose each firm bears the same cost production as C(q) = 100 + 0.25q? when producing q units. a. Derive Firm 1's best response function, q1(q2), against Firm 2's output level choice, q2. b. Find the equilibrium output level of Firm 1 at the N.E. equilibrium. c. Find the deadweight loss caused by the duopoly. d. Find again the equilibrium output level of Firm 1 if it acts as the leader while Firm 2 as the follower.

A market is served by two firms in Cournot competition, each with a constant marginal cost of $100. The market inverse demand curve is P = 2,000 – 50 Q, where Q is the total market output produced by the two firms, q 1 + q 2. What is Firm 1's reaction function? A. q1 = 400 – 100q2 B. q1 = 19 – 0.5q2 C. q1 = 400 – 0.2P D. q1 = 210 – q2

Assume there are two firms, firm A and B, engaged in Cournot competition. The industry demand curve is given by P = 220 - Q, where Q = QA + QB denotes industry output. Each firm faces a marginal cost of production equal to $16. In equilibrium, what will be the output level of firm A?

Suppose that the market consists of 6 identical firms , that the market demand curve is P=200-2Q and that each firm's marginal cost is 32. The cournot equilibrium quantity per firm is q=_____________________ and the equilibrium quantity in the market is Q=______________________. The market price is P=$______________ per unit.
