5. Tom is a monopolist input supplier to Dick and Harry. Tom's marginal cost is 1. Dick and Harry are duopolists with production function q x/2 No firm has fixed costs. The demand for the final product is given by Q 100-p. a) Assume Dick and Harry buy the input from Tom at price k. What are their cost functions? b) Find the Cournot equilibrium quantities. c) What price, k, should Tom set? d) Now suppose Dick could buy Tom's firm and stop supplies of the input to Harry so that Dick would be a monopolist. How much is Dick willing to pay for Tom's firm? e) How much is Tom willing to sell his firm for?
For the unregulated, single-price monopoly shown in the figure above, when its profit is maximized, output will be
You are the manager of a monopoly that sells a product to two groups of consumers in different parts of the country. Analysts at your firm have determined that group 1’s elasticity of demand is −6, while group 2’s is −2. Your marginal cost of producing the product is $80. a. Determine your optimal markups and prices under third-degree price discrimination. markup for group 1: price for group 1: markup for group 2: price for group 2:

Please no written by hand solutions 1. Assume the cost function for a monopolist is given by TC(q) = 30Q; the inverse demand function for the firms' output is p = 120 - Q, where Q is the total output. a. Find the profit-maximizing combination of price and quantity b. Estimate consumer surplus, producer surplus and the deadweight loss associated with this monopolist C. If this industry became perfectly competitive, explain and estimate the consumer surplus, producer surplus and deadweight loss of the industry d. Graph your answers for a, b, and c 2. Now assume that the monopolist above splits into two. Each of two firms has the cost function TC(q) = 30q. a. What are the firms' outputs in a Nash equilibrium of Cournot's model? b. Estimate the economic profits for each firm c. If firm 1 is the leader and firm 2 the follower, find the equilibrium outputs for the Stackelberg solution.
