5. Oligopoly terminology Suppose three companies, Optimax, Megachug, and Thirstoid, dominate the sports drink market. Optimax enjoys the largest market share. Each time Optimax changes the price of its sports drink, the other two firms match its price. This is an example of: O Price leadership O A price war O A cartel

6. Using a payoff matrix to determine the equilibrium outcome Suppose that Zipride and Citron are the only two firms in a hypothetical market that produce and sell electric scooters. The following payoff matrix gives profit scenarios for each company (in millions of dollars), depending on whether it chooses to set a high or low price for scooters. Zipride Pricing price. High Low For example, the lower-left cell shows that if Zipride prices low and Citron prices high, Zipride will earn a profit of $13 million, and Citron will earn a profit of $3 million. Assume this is a simultaneous game and that Zipride and Citron are both profit-maximizing firms. Citron Pricing High 9,9 13, 3 If Zipride prices high, Citron will make more profit if it chooses a Low If the firms do not lude, 3, 13 6, 6 If Citron prices high, Zipride will make more profit if it chooses a price. Considering all of the information given, pricing low True False Both Zipride and Citron will choose a low price. strategies…
Scenario: Madison Company is a large manufacturer and distributor of cake supplies. It is based in Chicago(Headquarters) and Trinidad. It sends supplies to firms throughout the United States and the UnitedKingdom. It markets its supplies through periodic mass mailings of catalogs to those firms. Itsclients can make orders over the phone and Madison ships the supplies upon demand.The main competition for Madison’s in the United States comes from one U.S. firm and oneCanadian firm. A British firm has a small share of the U.S. market but is at a disadvantagebecause of its distance. The British firm’s marketing and transportation costs in the U.S. marketare relatively high. Given that one-third of the company sales are exported to the United Kingdom and invoices forexports are in US dollars, the demand for its exports is highly sensitive to the value of the Britishpound. In order to maintain its inventory at a proper level, it must forecast the total demand for itsproducts which is…

There are two firms in the market (duopoly). These two firms are competingsimultaneously. The first firm chooses its output level (x) by predicting the second firm’soutput (y). Let c denote the total cost function c(x) = x and c(y) = y. Also, let’s assumethat the inverse demand function is p(Y) = 7 - Y where Y = x + y. (1) Obtain the reactionfunction of the first firm. (2) Find the equilibrium (output and profit of each firm) whentwo firms simultaneously compete
