C2) Company A is the only supplier of glass in Big Apple City used for tall buildings’ exteriors. Its marginal cost of production is cA=1, and it has no other production costs. The demand for such glass in Big Apple city is QD=2-P. Company B in Jersey City produces the same glass and is considering whether to expand to Big Apple city. If it enters, it needs to get a permit to allow it to be a supplier in the Big-Apple city at a cost of L=0.5, which does not vary with quantity of output, and its marginal cost of production is cB=0.5. If it expands to the Big-Apple city, companies A and B both supply to the market, and the market price P satisfies QA+QB=2-P, where QA is company A’s production level and QB is company B’s. a) If company B expands to the Big-Apple city, what is the resulting price in a Nash equilibrium? b) Company B hires a consulting company to advise whether it should expand to the Big-Apple city. If you’re running the consulting company, what is your advice? Explain…
A microbrewery operates next to the Bushville Lake and uses water from the lake during production. The marginal cost of beer production is: MC = 8 + 2Q where Q is the quantity of beer produced (keg). The brewery sells its output at a market price of $40/keg. Because the industry is perfectly competitive, the brewery’s action does not affect the market price. The Bushville Lake is also used for kayaking and recreational fishing, but pollution from the brewery reduces the quantity of fish available and makes the lake very unpleasant. Each keg of beer produced emits a pound of pollutants that causes a loss of recreation opportunities worth $3. a) How much beer will be produced? b) What is the efficient level of beer production? If the government used a Pigouvian tax to achieve this goal, what would the tax be?
Based on the best available econometric estimates, the market elasticity of demand for your firm's product is -3.0. The marginal cost of producing the product is constant at $150, while average total cost at current production levels is $215. Determine your optimal per unit price if: Instructions: Enter your responses rounded to two decimal places. a. you are a monopolist. 2$ b. you compete against one other firm in a Cournot oligopoly. $ C. you compete against 19 other firms in a Cournot oligopoly. 2$
Big Boss is a local pet shop, mainly selling cat food. It has a constant marginal cost of $24. She recently runs a promotional campaign using discount coupons. Suppose Big Boss estimates price elasticity of demand for coupon users and non-coupon users are –3.0 and –1.6 respectively. Calculate the prices Big Boss should charge on coupon users and non-coupon users respectively.
AVAC is the only pharmaceutical firm producing a Vaccine. The Demand Curve for its product is Qd = 250 – 50 P where P is Price and Q are packs of vaccines in ‘000 Total Cost Function estimated by the firm is TC = 15 + 0.5Q where Q is monthly output. What is the market structure of AVAC? State its characteristics. To maximize profit, What will be the optimum price and how many packs of Vaccine should the firm produce and sell per month? If this number of packs is produced and sold, what will be the firm’s monthly profit? Using available information, draw AVAC’s demand, marginal revenue and marginal cost curves in a graph and clearly label thefirm’s profit maximizing price, quantity and profit. Do you observe any welfare loss? If so, also indicate and label the area on the graph. Assume all other pharmaceutical firms in the market start producing the Vaccine and the market becomes competitive. What will be the impact on…
A new restaurant - Uovo - has just opened in West L.A. It is serving the upscale market, with truly outstanding pasta that is flown in overnight from Bologna, Italy. Uovo offers a fixed-price menu with an appetizer, three dishes of pasta, and a delicious tiramisu for dessert. The restaurant faces the following demand function: Q = 500 - 4P where Q is the number of guests per day. The marginal cost is constant at $45 per customer (including expenses for ingredients and personnel). The restaurant is paying a rent of $1,000 per day. What is the profit-maximizing number of guests that Uovo should serve each day, and what price should Uovo charge to maximize profit? What is the elasticity of demand at the optimal price and quantity? Is demand elastic or inelastic at this point? From what we learned in class, make sense for the restaurant to operate in this area of the demand curve (elastic/inelastic part)? 3 4. What is the profit of the restaurant at the optimal price and quantity, and what…
Parkleigh Pharmacy is an upscale department store in Rochester, NY, that sells personal accessories and home decorations. Kaufmann’s is a departmental store based in Pennsylvania and has several stores in Rochester, NY. Kaufmann carries a broad range of products and caters to middle-class customers.

A salesperson at Kaufmann gets an hourly wage lower than Parkleigh’s hourly wage but gets 5% commission on sales. However, the product salesperson buys from Kaufmann without a discount. Explain why does Kaufmann pays sales commission, and Parkleigh doesn’t

Devlin-McGregor (https://devlinmacgregor.com/) is the sole producer of Provasic which is made using only Soma. One unit of Soma produces one unit of Provasic. There are no other inputs into the Provasic production process. Devlin-McGregor purchases Soma from a monopoly supplier of that product. Presently, the supplier charges Devlin-McGregor a constant amount per unit of Soma. The Soma supplier is contemplating a change in how it prices. In return for discounting the unit price of Soma by 100×α %, it wants 100×α % of Devlin-McGregor’s revenues from the sale of Provasic. Is there a choice of α ∈ [0, 1] which would make the Soma supplier better off? Please, don't copy your answer from anywhere, and show your own work!
Suppose Ring Dental is the single supplier at HRM region provide the dental service and has a market demand curve Q = 40 – P; A total cost curve given by the formula: T C = 80 - 20Q + 2Q2 Find the profit-maximizing quantity, price, and profit. Now, suppose Halifax Dental wishes to separate the market and target to two different groups of customers young and old customers, the average cost = marginal cost = 10 for both markets Young customers with elasticity = -5 and DA = 12000 - 65P Old customers with elasticity = -7 and DB = 12000 - 55P What is the profit if Halifax Dental sets the equal price for both markets? (use the average elasticity for equal price) What is the profit if Halifax Dental charges different prices for each market?
