Two countries produce oil. The per unit production cost of Country 1 is C1 = $2 and of country 2 it is C2 = $4. The total demand for oil is Q = 40-p where p is the market price of a unit of oil. Each country can only produce either 5 units, 10 units or 15 units. The total production of the two countries in a Nash equilibrium is 10 15 20 25 30
Suppose we have two identical firms A and B, selling identical products. They are the only firms in the market and compete by choosing quantities at the same time. The Market demand curve is given by P=477-Q. The only cost is a constant marginal cost of $16. Suppose Firm A produces a quantity of 66 and Firm B produces a quantity of 49. If Firm A decides to increase its quantity by 1 unit while Firm B continues to produce the same 49 units, what is the Marginal Revenue for Firm A from this extra unit? Enter a number only, no $ sign. Don't forget to include the negative sign if revenue decreases.
Consider two firms choosing quantities sequentially in a duopoly setting (i.e. the Stackelberg game). The two firms have identical products. Each firm has no fixed costs, and faces marginal costs equal to 5 plus the quantity it produces (i.e. MC = 5 + q). Market demand is given by Q = 46 - P, where Q is market quantity and P is market price. In equilibrium, how much will the firm that moves first produce?
