P1 3. Assume that the islanders of Bora Bora drink beer, which is sold only in bars that belongto a bartenders' cartel. The marginal cost of a glass of beer is $1.00, and there are nofixed costs. There are 20,000 islanders, each of whom have the following individualinverse demand curve for beer every Saturday night (the only time the islanders drinkbeer):P = 10-0.5QDa. The beer cartel sets specific quantities of beer to be sold Saturday night.Everyone knows that any bartender who sells more than the cartel-determinedquantity of beer gets fed to the sharks. Explain how this threat actually makesbartenders better off.b. What beer price will maximize the collective profits of the cartel members?c.Suppose a bartender comes up with the alternative idea of selling patrons anightly "drinking license" that would have to be paid upon entering a bar. Howmuch could each of the bartenders charge such a license if they left the per-glass beer price at the previous, collusive level? How much profit would thecartel make?d. If instead bartenders set the license fee and the beer price together so as tomaximize profits, how much will they charge for the license and for a glass ofbeer, and how much profit will the cartel make?

A company has two wings producing two products - Product 1 and Product 2. P and P2 are price per unit for Product 1 and Product 2 respectively. Similarly, q1 and q2 are the respective amount of units produced for Product 1 and Product 2. Pj and P2 are related to qı and q2 by the equations P = 155q2 + 26q – $92, P2 = 295q1 + 18q{ – 9ź91- The total cost of production for the company is given by, C = 100q192. The total relative profit is R =total profit/total cost , where total profit =total revenue – total cost; and total revenue = ( Price per unit of product 1* quantity of product 1) + (Price per unit of product 2 * quantity of product 2) a.
