For this question I cannot completely understand how to solve given it is a cournot model based question. Could I have help A homogenous product is produced by two rival firms. They have the same costs.The market demand is:P = 80 – QP = 80 – Q1 – Q2orThe firms' total cost equations are:C1 = 50Q1C2 = 50Q2a. Both firms choose their output level at the same time. In estimating its marginal revenue,each firm takes its rival's output as given and maximizes profit subject to that assumption.Write Firm 1's total revenue (= PQ1) and marginal revenue equations.TR =MR1 =b. Set MR1 = MC, to derive the equation of Firm l's reaction curve, Q1*(Q2). Also write thesymmetric reaction curve equation for Firm 2.Q1*(Q?) =%3DQz*(Q!) =c. Solve for the profit-maximizing price. Find the output, revenue, cost, and profit of each firm.Add the firms' revenue (TR = TRỊ + TR2), cost (TC = TC1 + TC2), and profit (M = N1 + N2).Q1*Q2*p* =%3DTR1 =TC1 =TR =TC =d. GRAPH the Cournot reaction curves. Label the Cournot equilibrium point (EcoURN). Label thepoint that shows what the firms' outputs would be if, instead, they behaved like perfectcompetitors (ETN), and happened to each supply the same output. Finally, label the pointthat represents the firms' outputs if, instead, they colluded-behaved like a singlemonopolist-and split the profit equally (EcoLLU). Cournot Duopoly Modele.

Question 7 1) Listen Cities often want to determine how much additional law enforcement will decrease their murder rates. A simple model with cross-section data at the provincial level to address this question is (1) murdpc-Bo+Bipolpc+Bzincpc+Bapvty+u where murdpc is murders per capita, polpc is number of police officers per capita, incpc is income per capita and pvty is the percent of people in the city that are below a poverty line and u is the error term. Suppose that the supply of polpc is a function of murdpc described by the following equation (2) polpc=6o+8ımurdpc+5zincpc+53stax+v where stax is the percent of sales tax in the province in which the city is located and v is the error term. The reduced form equation of murdpc is a regression model of this variable as a function of the following variables plus an error term incpc, stax O incpc, stax, pvty O none of the other answers are correct O stax, pvty O incpc, pvty
