Alcoa had used price discrimination to acquire a monopoly Following its near bankruptcy in 1922, General Motors pioneered the decentralized management structure in which the firm was reorganized into semi-independent profit centers. Vice-presidents were appointed to manage these profit centers and were told that their bonuses would depend on the profitability of their division. This reorganization was designed to a. reduce management costsb. better capture economies of scalec. create a ratchet effect that would drive managers to perform…

In monopolistic competition equilibrium with symmetric fırms, firms enter until each firm earns O zero economic profits because price equals average cot. O positive monopoly profits because it sells a differentiated product. O positive economic profits only if it engages in international trade O negative economic profits because of fixed costs.
A. Does either firm have a dominant strategy? B.
6. Consider a duopoly in which inverse demand is given by P= 100-Q, where Pis the price and Q is aggregate output. The marginal cost of each firm is initially equal to 55 and there are no fixed costs. The firms compete by simultaneously setting quantities. (a) What is the equilibrium quantity of each firm, the equilibrium price and the profit of each firm? Now assume that one of the firms, firm 1, develops a new technology that reduces its own marginal cost to 25. (b) If firm 1 keeps this innovation for itself (so that the marginal cost of firm 2 is still 55), what will be the new equilibrium levels of output, price and profits of the two firms? What is the consumer surplus in the market? Do consumers benefit from the innovation?
