Continuing with inverse demand p = 50 - Q, if each firm has marginal cost of 0, what is the difference between the equilibrium price under Cournot competition and under Bertrand competition? The Cournot price is higher than the Bertrand price by 50. The Cournot price is lower than the Bertrand price by 25. The Cournot price is higher than the Bertrand price by 50/3. Equilibrium prices under Cournot and Bertrand are the same, so the difference is zero.
Use the orange points (square symbol) to plot the initial short-run industry supply curve when there are 10 firms in the market. (Hint: You can disregard the portion of the supply curve that corresponds to prices where there is no output since this is the industry supply curve.) Next, use the purple points (diamond symbol) to plot the short-run industry supply curve when there are 15 firms. Finally, use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot the short-run industry supply curve when there are 20 firms.

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.)

Suppose that demand for a particular style of handmade Rwandan baskets is Qd = 1700 – 10P. Each basket maker has the following cost function: TCi = 1000 + 50 qi + .1 qi^2. Given this information, find the market outcomes under the various market structures below Perfect competition, long-run. Given the same cost functions above, find the long-run equilibrium quantity per firm, the LR market price, market quantity and equilibrium number of firms. What is the profit or loss per firm? What is MCi and ATCi?

Suppose that the Bob Buttons Company (BBC) enters the market. BBC has the same cost function of c=3q+1. Let denote q1 the quantity sold by ABC and denote the q2 quantity sold by BBC. Now suppose that ABC and BBC reach a Cournot equilibrium. Q: What would be the net change in ABC’s profit as a result of BBC’s entry into the market?____ (type in a negative number if ABC’s profit decreases) (please see the attachement for partial of my work, not sure if it's correct, thank you!)
