All consumers have identical demand for a pint of pistachio ice cream. Each person has a demand function of P = 30 – 2Q, where P is the price and Q is the number of pints. Marginal cost is $2. Design a two-part tariff and calculate profits.
Firms in a competitive market can sell as much as they like at a market price of $16. The cost function for each firm is TC = 50 + 4Q +2Q². The associated marginal cost function is MC = 4 + 4Q and the point of minimum average cost is Q = 5. How much profit is each firm earning?
Feedback Imagine that the flat-screen TV market is made up of one large firm that leads the industry and sets its own price first, and another firm that follows the leader when deciding its own profit-maximizing strategy. The leader has a cost function of c₁ (91) = 5q1, and the follower has a cost function of CF (ar) = 4, where Q =q₁ + qr. Total market demand for flat-screen TVs is given by the function Q = 250.00-2p. Calculate the following values: Leading firm's production: q = Follower firm's production: qp = Equilibrium price: p= $49.37 9 OF 16 QUESTIONS COMPLETED 118.33 32.92 (Round to two decimals if necessary.)

The widget market is competitive and includes no transaction costs. Five suppliers are willing to sell one widget at the following prices: $26, $14, $10, $5, and $3 (one seller at each price). Five buyers are willing to buy one widget at the following prices: $10, $14, $26, $34, and $42 (one buyer at each price). For each price shown in the following table, use the given information to enter the quantity demanded and quantity supplied. Price Quantity Demanded Quantity Supplied ($ per widget) (widgets) (widgets) $3 $5 $10 $14 $26 $34 $42 In this market, the equilibrium price will be per widget, and the equilibrium quantity will be widgets.
