COURSE: MICROECONOMICS - Cournot Model:In the market for a given good there are only 2 firms satisfying the demand, and their respective total cost functions respond to the form: CTi = 10Qi + 5 and the demand is estimated to be: P = 31 - QIf the decision variable for both firms is that the quantity they will produce and realize will be decided simultaneously it is asked to:(a) calculate the profit and reaction function of each firmb) graph market equilibriumc) calculate the profits that both companies will obtain in equilibrium
Please no written by hand and no emage Two firms compete in a homogeneous product market where the inverse demand function is P = 20 −5Q (quantity is measured in millions). Firm 1 has been in business for one year, while Firm 2 just recently entered the market. Each firm has a legal obligation to pay one year’s rent of $1.6 million regardless of its production decision. Firm 1’s marginal cost is $2, and Firm 2’s marginal cost is $10. The current market price is $15 and was set optimally last year when Firm 1 was the only firm in the market. At present, each firm has a 50 percent share of the market.Determine the current profits of the two firms. Firm 1's profits: $Firm 2's profits: $What would each firm’s current profits be if Firm 1 reduced its price to $10 while Firm 2 continued to charge $15?Firm 1's profits: $Firm 2's profits: $Suppose that, by cutting its price to $10, Firm 1 is able to drive Firm 2 completely out of the market. After Firm 2 exits the market, does Firm 1 have an…

Suppose Eckerd Pharmacy is the only pharmacy in a particular market, but CVS Pharmacy is thinking about entering the market. Absent entry, Eckerd Pharmacy can maximize profits by producing a small quantity. However, by producing a large quantity, Eckerd Pharmacy can attempt to deter entry by reducing prices and, consequently,. profits. E: $47 C: $47 Enter Eckerd Pharmacy must choose how much to produce first and then cVS Pharmacy will choose whether to enter the industry. The strategies and corresponding profits for Eckerd (E) and CVS Pharmacy (C) are depicted in the decision tree to the right. What is the Nash equilibrium of the game? Small Quantity E: $85 C: $0 Stay Out! E O A. Eckerd Pharmacy will choose the small quantity and CVS Pharmacy will Enter E: $O C: -$10 not enter. Large Quantity O B. Eckerd Pharmacy will choose the large quantity and CVS Pharmacy will not enter. Stay Out E: $65 C: $0 OC. Eckerd Pharmacy will choose the large quantity and CVS Pharmacy will enter. O D.…

MICROECONOMICS - PROBLEM SET 4 MARKET STRUCTURE 1. The inverse demand curve for the product of a perfectly competi- tive industry is given by P = 160-0.5Q, where P is the price per unit and Q is the quantity. The short-run industry inverse supply curve (for a given number of firms) is P = 100+ 0.25Q. (a) Calculate the equilibrium price and quantity, and hence cal- culate the consumers' surplus and producers' surplus. A tax of 15 per unit sold is now imposed on every unit sold. Calculate the new short-run equilibrium price (including tax) and quantity, and hence calculate the revenue raised. What is the deadweight loss (excess burden) of the tax?

4. [A Monetary Surprise] Consider an economy in which the demand for money is of the form M₁ = = P₁Y for t = 0, 1,2,..., where output is 150, the money velocity is 1.5. The money supply is 100 for t = 0, 1. In period 2, the central bank surprises people and announce that money supply will grow at 2 percent forever, that is, Mo = 100, M₁ = 100, M₂ = (1.02) M₁, M3 (1.02) M₂, and so on. (a) What is the inflation rate in period 1, 7? What is real money balance in period 1, ? What is the expected inflation in period 2, given the information available in period 1, E172? (b) What is the inflation rate in period 2, m₂? What is real money balance in period 2, 2? What is expected inflation in period 3, given the informa- tion available in period 2, E273? (c) What is the inflation rate in period 3, 73? What is real money balance in period 2, ? (d) Compare E₁₂ and 7₂. B
The Bank of Sweden inflation target is 2 % - which is a very common central bank goal. Why is it not zero percent?
