Igrushka is a profit-maximizing firm producing wooden dolls-a capital-intensive good-which are sold in its home country, Russia, and abroad in France. Igrushka chose foreign production as a method of penetrating the French market and has to decide whether it is more efficient to directly invest in France to establish a production subsidiary or to license the technology to a French firm to produce its goods. On the following graph, AVCFrance is the average variable cost curve of a French firm producing wooden dolls. (This curve represents costs such as labor and materials.) The curve ATCSubsidiary represents the total unit costs Igrushka will face if it establishes a subsidiary in France.

A study of ethanol as a transportation fuel reveals that the competitive equilibrium is expected to be at a price of $4 per gallon and a consumption rate of 100 million gallons/day. For a production rate of 10 million gallons/day, the marginal cost is found to be $1 per gallon. Also, a a price of $10 per gallon the demand is 10 million gallons/day. Answer the following questions for this system. 1. Determine the equations for the demand and marginal cost lines. 2. Calculate the consumer and producer surplus for the market equilibrium. 3. It was discovered later that the above information ignored a government subsidy of 50 cents per gallon. How will the demand and marginal cost lines, and the competitive equilibrium, change if this subsidy is removed?

15. The inverse demand for Harley Davidson motorcycles is P = 40, 000 – 10Q, where P is given by the price in dollars and Q measures the number of units sold each month. Harley Davidson is currently producing motorcycles at a constant marginal and average cost of $16,000. a. Solve for the profit-maximizing price and quantity of Harley Davidson motorcycles. b. Heavy tariffs on imported steel drive up Harley's marginal and average cost by $2,000. How do these tariffs affect Harley's profit-maximizing price and quantity? How will the tariffs affect Harley's profits?

In the world market for copper, there are two types of copper mines: Type 1 (primarily locatedin North America) and Type 2 (primarily located in Asia and South America). Each type of mineincurs five “buckets” of costs: (1) direct materials; (2) energy inputs (such as electricity andnatural gas); (3) shipping; (4) production labor; and (5) production and administrative overhead.Direct materials, energy inputs, and shipping services are purchased in competitive spotmarkets, and the total monthly costs that a firm incurs on these items vary in direct linearproportion to the quantity of copper produced in the mine during that month. If a mineproduces no copper in a particular month, it incurs no direct materials, energy, or shippingcosts.By contrast, the total monthly costs for production labor and overhead are volume- insensitive:the levels of these costs do not vary with the volume of production in the mine. Even if themine temporarily suspended operations for a month (i.e., produced…
