Suppose that there were two competing types of high-definition DVD players, Greenbeam and Mosdef. Greenbeam enjoyed an initial advanta market for high-definition DVD players because there were more motion-picture production companies offering movies compatible with its sy Which of the following is an illustration of a network externality? Mosdef benefited from more consumers buying Greenbeam DVD players. O Consumers bought Mosdef players in increasing numbers, while Greenbeam lost market share and eventually went out of business. Consumers bought Greenbeam players in increasing numbers, while Mosdef lost market share and eventually went out of business. More production companies adopted the Mosdef format for their movies because the Mosdef player had the superior format, despite fact that more consumers purchased Greenbeam players.

Suppose than an oligopolist is charging $20 per unit of output and selling 28 units each day. What is its daily total revenue? $ Also suppose that previously it had lowered its price from $20 to $18, rivals matched the price cut, and the firm's sales increased from 28 to 29 units. It also previously raised its price from $20 to $29, rivals ignored the price hike, and the firm's daily total revenue came in at $550. Which of the following is most logical to conclude? The firm's demand curve is (Click to select) < Prev Ne 28 of 50

Discussion Question 13-11 Network effects give Internet firms a boost with respect to first mover advantages. This is because with network effects O whichever firm's network becomes the largest will become the most valuable to potential customers and will therefore attract even more users. O only firms with access to proprietary technology can form a network. O networks can be networked to create even more traffic and profits. O the first internet firm to establish a network has the most influence over any regulation. When network effects are at play, an increase in the number of people using a given product will shift the demand curve to Oright and make it more elastic. O the right and make it more inelastic.

in the sample imit pricing model, the entrant moves first to choose to Enter the market or Stay Out. Once the entrant moves, the incumbent fem choose to Fight or Share, If the entrant choose to stay out, the entrant receives zero profit while the incumbent ears the monopoly prett. Suppose when the incumbent and the entrant Fight, they compete in Bertrand style and when the incumbent Share the market, the firms compete in Cournot style. Complete the following game by fill in the associated payoffs at the end nodes and solve the game using the backward induction (e. find the equilibrium path. Assume both the entrant and incumbent have the same marginal cost of 2 and the inverse demand is P-14-Q Incumbent: Share Enter Fight Entrant Stay Out If Entrant enters and Incumbent shares, the payoff for the Entrant is If Entrant enters and Incumbent fights, the payoff for the Entrant is If the Entrant stays out, the payoff for the Entrant is At equilibrium, Entrant will choose and the payoft for…
5) Suppose a monopoly produces film and cameras. Consumers demand pictures, which require film and one camera. Two different types of consumers have the following demand for film, qÃ = 100 - 10p and q = 80 - 10p. The monopoly cannot price discriminate in the market for film or the market for cameras, but it can bundle the products. The monopoly produces film at a constant marginal cost of $1 per roll. What price will the monopoly set for film and for cameras?
You are a monopolist with 15 potential buyers for the two video games you sell, VG1 and VG2. You can produce each of these games at constant marginal cost of $1. There are 3 different types of clients: type A (3 of them), type B (5 of them) and type C (7 of them).
