Consider a Cournot duopoly with the inverse demand P = 200 − 2Q. Firm 1 and 2 compete by simultaneously choosing their quantities. Both firms have constant marginal and average cost MC = AC = 20.   A) Find each firm’s best response function. Plot the best response functions (label the x-axes as ?1 and y-axes as ?2 ).   B) Find the Cournot-Nash equilibrium quantities, profits and market price. Illustrate the equilibrium point on your graph in part (A).   C) Suppose instead that firm 1 had MC = AC = 20, but firm 2’s MC = 8. What is the Cournot-Nash equilibrium outputs and profits now? How would this affect your answers to part (B)? Explain
