Consider a competitive industry with a market demand curve of P= 120 - Q. where Pis market price and Q is the quantity demanded in the market. Each firm in the industry has a cost function of TC - 144 + q², if q > O where q is output of the individual firm (TC - O if q ▪ 0). The market is initially in long-run equilibrium. The government decides to regulate the industry by issuing licences to all firms currently in the industry, and not to allow any further entry by other firms without a licence. That is, the number of licences is fixed, and entry requires that an existing licence holder sells their licence to the potential entrant, leaving the number of firms producing in the industry fixed. Subsequent to the introduction of this regulation, the market demand curve shifts to P- 150 - Q. What is the value of the licence?

Suppose you are given the following information about a particular industry: QD11200-100P QS = 1500P q² 200 C(q)=761 + 2q 200 Market demand Market supply Firm total cost function Firm marginal cost function. MC(q)= Assume that all firms are identical and that the market is characterized by perfect competition. Find the equilibrium price, the equilibrium quantity, the output supplied by the firm, and the profit of each firm. The equilibrium price is $. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.)
Consider a competitive industry with a market demand curve of P = 252 – Q, where P is market price and Q is the quantity demanded in the market. Each firm in the industry has a cost function of TC = 196 + q2, if q > 0 where q is output of the individual firm (TC = 0 if q = 0). The market is initially in long-run equilibrium. The government decides to regulate the industry by issuing licences to all firms currently in the industry, and not to allow any further entry by other firms without a licence. That is, the number of licences is fixed, and entry requires that an existing licence holder sells their licence to the potential entrant, leaving the number of firms producing in the industry fixed. Subsequent to the introduction of this regulation, the market demand curve shifts to P = 432 – Q. What is the value of the licence?
The first graph depicts the industry supply and demand for yoga classes. Assume that the market is initially in equilibrium at the intersection of lines D and S. The second graph is the cost information for a single firm in this perfectly competitive industry. Assume there is an increase in the industry demand for yoga classes and the industry demand curve moves from D to D1. Furthermore, assume this is a constant cost industry. Shift the supply (S) curve to the correct positions to reflect long-run equilibrium in this constant cost industry. Next, use the interactive line to trace out the long-run industry supply curve (LRIS) for this industry. Price per class Yoga Industry Supply and Demand Short-run marginal cost Long-run average cost Short-run average cost S Price=Marginal revenue DRIS D1 Quantity of classes Quantity of classes Price ($)
Let’s assume that in California there is a perfectly competitive industry. If in this perfectly competitive industry a firm is a price taker, then Group of answer choices pressure from competing firms will force acceptance of the prevailing market price. it must be a relatively small player compared to its competitors in the overall market. it can increase or decrease its output significantly affecting overall quantity supplied in the market. quality differences will be very perceptible and will play a major role in purchasers' decisions.
Use the orange points (square symbol) to plot the initial short-run industry supply curve when there are 10 firms in the market. (Hint: You can disregard the portion of the supply curve that corresponds to prices where there is no output since this is the industry supply curve.) Next, use the purple points (diamond symbol) to plot the short-run industry supply curve when there are 15 firms. Finally, use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot the short-run industry supply curve when there are 20 firms. PRICE (Dollars per pound) 100 90 80 70 80 50 40 30 20 10 0 0 125 250 375 500 825 750 875 1000 1125 1250 QUANTITY (Thousands of pounds) Demand Because you know that competitive firms earn Supply (10 firms) True Supply (15 firms) If there were 10 firms in this market, the short-run equilibrium price of rhodium would be $ would . Therefore, in the long run, firms would False Supply (20 firms) per pound. From the graph, you can see that this means there will be ? per pound. At that price,…
Consider a competitive industry with a market demand curve of P = 121 – Q, where P is market price and Q is the quantity demanded in the market. In the short run there are 4 firms in the industry, and each firm has a total cost function of TC = 25 + 6q + q2, where q is output of the individual firm. In the long-run market equilibrium what is the number of firms in the industry? Group of answer choices 26 15 5 110 21
Perfectly Competitive market vs duopoly market Suppose the daily demand function of pizza in St Catherines Q^d=2175-5p. For 1 pizza store, the variable cost of making Qpizza per day is C(q)=0.2q^2 – 5q there is a 2000$ fixed cost. There is free entry in the long run a) What is the long run market equilibrium price and quantity in this market? How many firms in the market b) If the marginal cost decreased by 2$ per pizza what is the new short run market equilibrium price and quantity.c) Draw graphs to show the short run and the long run responses of both an individual firm and the market in part b. Now assume the market demand function does not change, consider duopoly market in which the marginal cost of each firm is 35. d) What is the nash equilibrium price and quantity in this Stackelberg model.
Suppose that demand for a particular style of handmade Rwandan baskets is Qd = 1700 – 10P. Each basket maker has the following cost function: TCi = 1000 + 50 qi + .1 qi^2. Given this information, find the market outcomes under the various market structures below Perfect competition, long-run. Given the same cost functions above, find the long-run equilibrium quantity per firm, the LR market price, market quantity and equilibrium number of firms. What is the profit or loss per firm? What is MCi and ATCi?

Wakanda is a firm that solely supplies vibranium to Marley and Paradis. The demand function of the Marley market is given as QM=110-PM , and the demand function of the Paradis market is QP=30-PP . Wakanda’s total cost in producing vibranium is given as TC=100+10Q , where represents a ton of vibranium. 1. Calculate the equilibrium price and output for each market. 2. How much is the total revenue in each market?
Suppose there is a perfectly competitive industry where all the firms are identical with identical cost curves. Furthermore, suppose that a representative firm's total cost is given by the equation TC = 100+ q² + 2q where q is the quantity of output produced by the firm. You also know that the market demand for this product is given by the equation P= 1000 - 2Q where Q is the market quantity. In addition you are told that the market supply curve is given by the equation P = 100+ Q. What is the firm's profit maximizing level of production? (Note: 1. If your answer is 100, please key in 100. There is no need to key in 100.0 or 100.00. 2. Please key in a number directly. Please do not key in "unit")
