Just answer the E, F and G, thank you bartleby! a. If firm compete in price, draw in detail the best response of each firm. b. Determine and explain the Bertrand equilibrium. c. What is the equilibrium quantity and how much profit for each firm? d. Explain the Bertrand Paradox in (c)! e. If firm 1 has capacity of production 450 and firm 2 has capacity of 200. Determine the Bertrand equilibrium. f. What is the equilibrium quantity, and how much profit for each firm? g. Is there any paradox in (f)?
