Suppose that you are the marketing manager of Citruscity, the only producer of grapefruits in the imaginary economy of Blockburg. As a monopolist, Citruscity's objective is to maximize its profit, so it is up to you devise a way to increase profits through price discrimination. As a former economics student, you know that many firms successfully practice price discrimination by separating their market into two identifiable types of consumers-what economists call third-degree price discrimination. Examples of this include student discounts, senior citizen discounts, and ladies' night discounts. After doing some research, you conclude that the demand for grapefruits varies greatly between consumers who clip coupons and those who do not. The following graphs show the overall dailly demand and marginal revenue (MR) for a pound of grapefruits for each group of consumers and the marginal cost (MC) for producing a pound of grapefruits. Assume that fixed costs are equal to zero. Note: You will…

The marketers of Budweiser Light beer and Miller Lite beer must decide whether or not to offer new advertising campaigns promoting their products. The payoffs in the table are the economic profit made by Bud and Miller. Which one of the following observations is correct? This game has no Nash equilibrium. Bud has a dominant strategy but Miller does not. This game has no dominant strategies. Bud and Miller each have a dominant strategy. Miller has a dominant strategy but Bud does not.

Quantity (in gallons) Total Price Revenue $8 $0 50 7 350 100 600 150 750 200 4 800 250 3 750 300 600 350 1 350 400 Imagine a small town in a remote area where only two residents, Maria and Miguel, own dairies that produce milk. Their respective dairies are equal in size. Each week Maria and Miguel work together to decide how many gallons of milk to produce and what price to charge. To keep things simple, suppose that Maria and Miguel can produce as much milk as they want without cost so that the marginal cost is zero and there are no fixed costs. The weekly town demand schedule and total revenue schedule for milk is shown in the table above. Suppose the town enacts new antitrust laws that prohibit Maria and Miguel from operating as a cartel. Assuming that each producer can only modify quantity in increments of 50, which of the following is consistent with the Nash equilibrium for this scenario? Maria will charge a price of $5 for each gallon. Miguel will sell 100 gallons. Milk will…
Table 17-2 The information in the table depicts the total demand for wireless Internet subscriptions in a small urban market. Assume that each wireless Internet operator pays a fixed cost of $100,000 (per year) to provide wireless Internet in the market area and that the marginal cost of providing the wireless Internet service to a household is zero. Quantity 0 2000 4000 6000 8,000 Price (per year) $180 $150 $120 $90 $60 10,000 $30 12,000 $0 Refer to Table 17-2. Assume that there are two profit-maximizing wireless Internet companies operating in this market. Further assume that they are not able to "collude" on price and quantity of wireless Internet subscriptions to sell. How many wireless Internet subscriptions will be collectively sold (by both firms) when this market reaches a Nash equilibrium? Oa. 2000 Ob.4000 OC. 6000 O d. 58000

DuopolyMarket for mechanical pencils can be described by the following demand schedule:Price | Number of pencils demanded$6 | 80$5 | 200$4 | 320$3 | 440$2 | 560$1 | 680$0 | 800The fixed cost is $340, while the variable cost is $0.50.d) If there were two firms on the market and they agreed to cooperate, how much would eachfirm need to produce? Follow the procedure outlined in the lecture and show that the otherfirm would prefer to deviate from the agreement.e) When the firms deviate from the agreement, there is a new optimal level of output. Showwhether the firms have an incentive to deviate from that level?f) If there were two firms on the market, what would be the price and the quantity of pencilstraded if the firms couldn’t cooperate?
