In Autarka there are 9600 people who like to visit an amusement park. Each of theseconsumers wants to visit one park once. The consumers' homes are evenly spaced acrossthe island, and they each suffer a disutility of $24 for each kilometre they travel to reachan amusement park. With their current technology, it costs an amusement park $12 for each customer theyhost. At present, the equilibrium price for an amusement park ticket is $36, and each firmhas a profit of $115,200. This market is best modelled as Hotelling competition. Fixed costs should be neglected. Treat this market as a one-shot game. Do not consider repetition or associated phenomena such as collusion or predatory pricing. Derive an expression for the location of the indifferent consumer. Use PA to represent the price of admission at Alfonso's Wonderland, and PB to represent the price of admission at Bernice's Wild Rides.

In some countries (eg., Denmark and the Netherlands) people often commute by bicycle instead of cars, and some argue that we ought to promote such behavior in the United States. These proponents argue that there are private as well as social benefits from biking, including improved health, reduced traffic congestion, and reduced pollution. People differ in their willingness to bike instead of drive. Suppose that the demand curve for biking commute trips in Hawal is portrayed in the demand curve in the attached graph (MWTP per trip =- 25 - Q/10, where Q is thousands of trips per day in the State). This private marginal willingness to pay (MWTP) embodies the enjoyment people get from riding to work relative to driving, perceived private health benefits, as well as fuel and other automobile-related expenses. Suppose the private cost per bike trip is $2.50, which includes the amortized cost of the bike plus maintenance and extra time costs. In addition, suppose that there are $5.00 per…
