Use the following to answer questions (27) and (28): Suppose market A is currently purely competitive, with consumer surplus equal to $250, producer surplus equal to $250, and the market price equal to $5. Suddenly the firms in this market merge together, effectively becoming a monopoly. As a result, consumer surplus decreases to $100, producer surplus increases to $300, and the market price increases to $8. [27] When market A is purely competitive, market welfare equals $250. A. B. [28] A. B. C. D. True False The deadweight loss in welfare associated with monopoly in this case equals: $0 $50 $100 $3
AVAC is the only pharmaceutical firm producing a Vaccine. The Demand Curve for its product is Qd = 250 – 50 P where P is Price and Q are packs of vaccines in ‘000 Total Cost Function estimated by the firm is TC = 15 + 0.5Q where Q is monthly output. What is the market structure of AVAC? State its characteristics. To maximize profit, What will be the optimum price and how many packs of Vaccine should the firm produce and sell per month? If this number of packs is produced and sold, what will be the firm’s monthly profit? Using available information, draw AVAC’s demand, marginal revenue and marginal cost curves in a graph and clearly label thefirm’s profit maximizing price, quantity and profit. Do you observe any welfare loss? If so, also indicate and label the area on the graph. Assume all other pharmaceutical firms in the market start producing the Vaccine and the market becomes competitive. What will be the impact on…
A large number of firms enter the Swedish market for the game Padel. For simplicity assume that they all act as price takers and let the cost function for each of them be given by C(q)=1000+0.4*q² where q is the number of customers served. a) In the long run free entry should drive profit to zero. At this point p=MC=ATC. Intuitively why is this the case? b) The condition in c) implies that in a free entry equilibrium with firms that have the same cost function each firm's production will be given by the lowest point in the average total cost curve. How much does each firm produce in the free entry equilibrium? What is price in this equilibrium? (Hint: You can either differentiate the expression for average cost to determine its minimum or you can look for the minimum point using your graph in b). c) Assume that overall demand is given by Q-1200-2*P. How many firms will there be in equilibrium?
The market for chocolate covered macadamias is characterised by demand Qd =200 p. Initially, there are only 10 firms selling chocolate covered macadamias, and strict barriers to entry prevent any new firms from entering the market. Each has costs given by c(q) = q² + 6 for q > 0 and c(g) = 0 for q = 0. If rounding is needed, please round your answers to 3 decimal places. a) (0.5 point) If all 10 firms behave like price-takers, what will be the price of chocolate covered macadamias? 33.3 b) (0.5 point) Now barriers to entry are lifted, and any number of identical firms (with the same cost structure) can enter. How many new firms (i.e. not counting the original 10) will have entered when the market is in long run equilibrium? 79.9 c) (1 point) Now suppose a new type of firm with a new technology for producing chocolate covered macadamias arrives on the scene. Each of these new firms has costs given by c(q) = q² + 3 for q > 0 and c(q) = 0 for q = 0. If there are no barriers to entry or…

There are two ice-cream parols on a beach. The dayly demand for ice-creams is given by Q = 3079 - 3p. The average variable cost of an ice-cream is 70, while the rent of the place is 966. How many ice-creams is the 'Leader' company selling if the two ice-cream stands operate as Stackelberg duopolists? (Please use 2 decimals in your answer.)
The inverse demand function in an industry with two firms is given as p = 50 – 2y, where y is the industry demand and p is the price. The firms have different technologies at their production plants with costs given as c(y1) = 10y, and c2[y2) = 14y2, where y = y,+ y2. 1. If the firms merge into one firm and become a monopoly in the industry, what will be the output of the merged firm? Comment on what would happen to the production plants under one ownership. Find the equilibrium price and profit. 2. Compare and comment on the total industry profits in these three market structures. 3. Assuming the firms are Bertrand duopolists, what is likely to happen? Explain verbally (no need to solve the problem).

Suppose the Boston to Philadelphia airline route is serviced by three airlines – US Airways (Firm A) and JetBlue (Firm B) and Continental (Firm C). The demand for airline travel between these two cities is Q = 150 – p. The cost function is C(Q) = 30Q. The cost function is the same for all three airlines. Assume that the three airlines are making investments in airline capacity. In other words, they are simultaneously choosing quantity. (Cournot Competition) Derive US Airways’ residual demand function given JetBlue’s output, qB, and Continental’s output, qC. What is the Marginal Revenue for US Airways? Derive US Airways reaction function Derive the market equilibrium quantity, Q*, price, p*, and Profit.
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. PRICE (Dollars per pound) 100 90 80 70 80 50 40 30 20 10 0 0 125 250 375 500 825 750 875 1000 1125 1250 QUANTITY (Thousands of pounds) Demand Because you know that competitive firms earn Supply (10 firms) True Supply (15 firms) If there were 10 firms in this market, the short-run equilibrium price of rhodium would be $ would . Therefore, in the long run, firms would False Supply (20 firms) per pound. From the graph, you can see that this means there will be ? per pound. At that price,…
UCOM is able to purchase an exclusive right to sell a soccer channel (SC) in its market area. Let's assume that UCOM pays $150,000 a year for the exclusive marketing rights to SC. Since UCOM has already installed cable to all of the homes in its market area, the marginal cost of delivering Soccer Channel to subscribers is zero. The manager of UCOM needs to know what price to charge for the Soccer Channel service to maximize her profit. Before setting price, she hires an economist to estimate demand for the Soccer channel service. The economist discovers that there are two types of subscribers who value soccer. First are the 4,000 die-hard soccer fans who will pay as much as $150 a year for the new soccer channel. Second, the soccer channel will appeal to about 20,000 occasional TV viewers who will pay as much as $20 a year for a subscription to soccer channel. What is the deadweight loss associated with the non-discriminating pricing policy compared to the price discriminating…
11. Consider the interaction between a retailer and a manufacturer. The manufacturer's marginal cost is 2 and it sets the price p in the first stage of the game. The retailer purchases the product from the manufacturer at this price (so the retailer treats p as its marginal cost) and sells the product at price r in the second stage of the game (this makes the retailer's profit function (r p)g). The market demand is q = 12 – 2r. What will be the prices set by the manufacturer and by the retailer?
