Shen's Fire Engines is the sole seller of fire engines in the fictional country of Pyrotania. Initially, Shen produced three fire engines, but he has decided to increase production to four fire engines. The following graph shows the demand curve Shen faces. As you can see, to sell the additional engine, Shen must lower his price from $125,000 to $75,000 per fire engine. Note that while Shen gains revenue from the additional engine he sells, he also loses revenue from the initial three engines because he sells them all at the lower price. True or False: If Shen's Fire Engines were a competitive firm instead and $125,000 were the market price for an engine, decreasing its price from $125,000 to $75,000 would result in the same change in the production quantity and, thus, total revenue. Should Shen increase production from 3 to 4 fire engines?

One of the observations that has been made about the pricing of products produced in an industry where production is highly concentrated is that the costs of production can change up or down and yet prices do not change much. The Sweezy model was developed to explain this observation. Present a Sweezy model, show a cost change, and show that the optimal choice for the firm is to leave the product price unchanged. Provide words to explain the basic reason why the price does not move up or down as costs change.
Del's and Rodney's are two plumbing services in a gentrifying area of South East London. Within the area they service, the two firms operate as a duopoly and together serve one hundred percent of the available local market. One of their key lines of business is visiting customer's homes to install a new shower rail. A student project has been investigating the local plumbing business and has estimated the following information for Del's and Rodney's: Total demand for new shower rails per week is given by P = 200 - 4Q Where Q is total market demand and can be divided between Del's (qd) and Rodney's (qr) such that Q = qd + qr Assuming that the marginal cost of serving an extra customer is £40 for each, and that marginal revenue for Del is given by MRd 2008qd - 4qr And marginal revenue for Rodney is given by MRr Then 2008qr - 4qd 8 CONTINUED
