Consider the market for bicycles in the fictional province of Westvale. The market demand function for bicycles is given by P=300-2Q. The marginal cost curve for firms in this market is given by P=40+Q. Prices are measured in dollars. a) Under a competitive market equilibrium, what is the price of a bicycle? b) How many bicycles are produced under a competitive market equilibrium? c) Calculate consumer surplus, producer surplus, and total surplus under the competitive market equilibrium Suppose that the firms that were once competing in this market merge into one single firm, forming a monopoly. This monopoly has a marginal revenue function of P=300-4Q. d) What price does this monopolist charge? e) How many bicycles does the monopolist produce? f) Calculate consumer surplus, producer surplus, and total surplus under the monopolistic market outcome g) How much deadweight loss resulted from the creation of the monopolist?
ost functions and competitive markets Assume each firm in a competitive market (i.e., they produce the same homogeneous product) has the cost function C(Q) = 1500 + 20Q. The (entire) market faces the demand curve P(Q) = 220 – 0.5Q. What is the equilibrium price in this competitive market? What is the equilibrium quantity? (b)
In a market, in the long run (free entry/exit), firms share a production function which results in costs following C(q)=0.1q3- 4q2 + 60q , where is the quantity produced by each firm Given a market demand of QD(P)=1,500 - 10P A) What is the equilibrium price? B) What is the market quantity supplied/demanded? C) How many firms will supply in this market, and how many units would each firm supply?
what is the market equilibrium point (in ordered pair)
Can you show how Qsc is = 2Pc? Which is the answer for this.
An industry has the following cost function: C(X, Y ) = 1500+20X +20Y . Market demands for the 2 goods are given by PX =80−X, and PY =140−2Y Suppose the government wished to use two part tariffs in these markets, and suppose further that two part tariffs are feasible. Imagine that there are 10 consumer in each market. Solve for a set of two part tariffs (one for each martket) that pay the firm zero profits in total, yet achieves efficiency.

Window cleaning is a perfectly competitive market in Boston. The daily market demand for window cleaning in Boston is Q(P) = 360 ‒ 4P, where Q represents the daily number of houses served and P is the price per house; and (2) the current market price per house served is 30. Each window-cleaning firm faces a daily total cost of TC(q) 72+ 1/2 q2, where q represents the number of houses served per day. What is the current daily profit for each window-cleaning firm? A. -72 B. 0 C. 378 D. 400 E. 578
Suppose goods X and Y are complimentary products. Which of the following are correct with respect to the competitive market model of supply and demand? (check all that apply) an increase in the price of good Y will cause an increase in demand for good X and reduce the quantity demanded for good Y an increase in the price of good Y will cause a decrease in demand for good X and reduce the quantity demanded for good Y a decrease in the price of good X will increase the quantity demanded for good X and cause a decrease in demand for good Y a decrease in the price of good X will increase the quantity demanded for good X and cause an increase in demand for good Y
Fruit market (a perfectly competitive market), the industry demand and supply of tomato (a homogenous product) is given by the following equations respectively: Qd = 50 − P Qs = 1 + 3P The typical firm’s total cost is given by the following equation: TC = 10 + 0.5Q2 + 5Q What is the equilibrium price and quantity in this market? What is the firm’s MC function? What is the MR function? What is the profit maximizing level of output for the firm? How much profit is this firm earning? Show it graphically Is it short run or long run? Explain!
Suppose a typical (representative) corn farm has a short run production technology which results in the outcome of U-shaped Average Variable Cost (AVC), Average Total Cost (ATC), and Marginal Cost (MC). Further, suppose this firm sells its product in a market where the price of the good is determined by the interaction of market Demand and Supply. Because an individual firm is very small compared to the rest of the market, we treat the market price as the price given to the firm, and the individual firm cannot impact that price. assume we are in the Short Run for this firm. In graphing, put $ on the vertical axis and lower-case q (firm output) on the horizontal axis. Start with the AFC0, AVC0, ATC0, and MC0 curves . show shifts in any of the cost curves, reflecting the higher cost of land (keeping in mind that this higher cost is independent of how much or how little corn is actually produced) and labeling the changed cost curves with a subscript 1.
