8. 2 firms are engaged in Stackelberg competition. Firm 1 faces the following cost curve Ci(Q1) 3Q+4 and firm 2 faces the following cost curve. C₂(2₂) = 22 +4. Market demand is given by D(P) = 60-p. Find the Nash Equilibrium of the game. =
Consider a duopoly market, where two firms sell differentiated products, which are imperfect substitutes. The market can be modelled as a static price competition game, similar to a linear city model. The two firms choose prices p, and p2 simultaneously. The derived demand functions for the two firms are: D1 (P1, P2) = SG+P1)and D2 (P1, P2)= S(;+-P2), where S > 0 and the parameter t > 0 measures the 2t 2t degree of product differentiation. Both firms have constant marginal cost c> 0 for production. (a) Derive the Nash equilibrium of this game, including the prices, outputs and profit of the two firms. (b) From the demand functions, qi= D¡ (p; , p¡ )= SG+P), derive the residual inverse demand functions: p; = P; (qi , p¡) (work out: P; (qi , P;)).

The firms in a duopoly produce differentiated products. The inverse demand for Firm 1 is The inverse demand for Firm 2 is and P₁ = 52-9₁-0.592. Each firm has a marginal cost of m= $1 per unit. Solve for the Nash-Cournot equilibrium quantities. The Cournot equilibrium quantities are (Enter your responses rounded to two decimal places.) P₂ = 100-92-0.5q1₁. 91 = units 92 units. =
Consider the following Stackelberg duopoly. Both firms produce differentiated goods. For form 1, the demand is 91 = 10-P1+ P2. For form 1, the demand is 92=20-2p₂ + P 1. Firm 1 chooses the price first. Firm 2 chooses the price after observing the choice of firm 1. For firm, the total cost function is TC(q) = 2qi. What is the price set by firm 1? 63/9 71/9 140/3 35/3

(4) Firm l's cost function is C1(q1) = q1 and firm 2's cost function is C2(q2) = 2q2. Consider a duopoly selling in a market with inverse demand function p = 12 q. (a) Assume firms choose output simultaneously (Cournot model). Compute the equilibrium quantities and the market price in a Nash equilibrium. (b) Now assume that firm 1 is a leader and chooses its output q1 first. Then, firm 2 chooses its output q2 after observing q1 (Stackelberg model). Find a subgame-perfect Nash equilibrium of this game. Carefully specify the strategies for firm 1 and firm 2. What quantities are produced in equilibrium and what is the market price in equilibrium?
Suppose two firms face market demand of P=150-Q, where Q = q1+ q2. Both firms have the same unit cost of C, which C=28. Assume the firms compete a la Stackelberg. Firm 1 is the leader and Firm 2 is the follower in this market. a) What is the follower's total revenue function? b) Determine the equilibrium output level for both the leader and the follower. c) Determine the equilibrium market price. d) Determine the profits of the leader and the follower.
Two identical firms compete as a Cournot duopoly. The inverse market demand they face is P-128 - 4Q. The total cost function for each firm is TC(Q;)=8Q; where i is firm 1 or firm 2. Based on this information firm 1 and 2's best response functions are Q₁16-0.25Q₂ and Q2-16-0.25Q1. Q₁16-0.5Q₂ and Q2-16-0.5Q₁. Q1-15-0.25Q2 and Q2=15-0.25Q1. Q₁15 -0.5Q2 and Q2 = 15-0.5Q₁.

Two firms compete in a single market (duopoly) with demand given by QD-60-P. The two firms have identical cost functions, C(q)=2q. Suppose firm 1 chooses its output first, following by firm 2 (Stackelberg model). In this case, firm 1 produces ✓ units and firm 2 produces ✓. Firm 1 earns ✓ units. The price in the market is ✓and firm 2 earns $ $ Does firm 1 have a first-mover advantage here?
Three firms compete in the style of Cournot. The market demand is given by Q(P) = 9 - P. There are no fixed cost and each firm s marginal cost is constant. Firm 1's marginal cost is MC1 = equilibrium if and only if 1, firm 2's marginal cost is MC2 = 2. Let MC3 be the marginal cost of Firm 3. All three firms will produce a strictly positive quantity in the Nash МС3 4. МС3 < 1. МС3 < 4. МС3 < 2.
