Your friend Donald needs to decide where to build his manufacturing plant and asks Joe for advice because you don't have time to deal with Donald. After research, Joe finds that the wage costs in his area, based on distance to market, are as follows: 200 - 3x, while the shipping cost to get the goods to the consumer is 5x, where x is the distance to market Two equations. Draw the land bid for the manufacturing plant, considering a revenue constant of $450.

Presently, Alpha Chemical and Beta Cleaners are the only suppliers of services that clean and refurbish large holding tanks at manufacturing plants in the Northeast. No other suppliers have the equipment necessary to perform these treatments. The market inverse demand for these cleaning services is given below. P=800-80 where P is price per treatment and Q is total number of treatments per week. For simplicity, also assume that neither firm has fixed costs. From company records, you are given the following variable cost function for each firm: TVC₁ = 30 TVCg =5Q In the work that follows, you may round all your results to 2 decimal places to reduce the clutter in your answers. a. Suppose Elon Must is contemplating buying both companies and since Alpha has lower operating costs, his first thought is to shut down Beta and supply the entire market as a single plant monopoly. If he does this, what price will he charge per treatment and how many treatments will he sell each week? What…
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.
The per-week (inverse) demand for use of the Øresund Bridge between Denmark and Sweden is P = 13 − 0.15Q during peak traffic periods and P = 10 − 0.1Q during off-peak hours, where Q is the number of cars crossing the bridge in thousands and P is the toll in euros. If the marginal cost of using the bridge is MC = 5 + 0.2Q, what is the optimal peak load toll and off-peak load toll for crossing the bridge?
Suppose that the demand curve for tickets to see a football team is given by Q = 36,000 - 4p and marginal cost = 1000 per customer. (Ten dollars as this is expressed in pennies) This can also be written as D(P) = 9000 -0.25 Q. MR = 9000-0.5 Q Suppose there are only 45,000 seats in the stadium.

Given that MR = P"(1 + 1/Ep) = p*((Ep+1)/Ep) where Ep is the price elasticity of demand, if marginal cost is constant at $20 over the range of current potential production and the price elasticity of demand = -2.0, then the profit maximizing price to charge is: $35 $45 $30 $40
Colombia and Brazil are two of the major suppliers of coffee globally, each accounting for the production of roughly 30 percent of all coffee consumed. Suppose that Colombia and Brazil both have the same marginal cost, MCC=20 + 120qc and MCB=20 + 120qB. There are also many smaller coffee producing nations that operate competitively. Suppose that after substracting supply of these smaller nations from global demand, the remaining demand is P= 720-20Q which implies that MR=720-4OQ :Determine the optimal quantity of coffee that Columbia and Brazil should each produce and the global market price they should establish if they collude (you can think of the price being for a 100 kilogram bag of raw coffee beans).
******ONLY ANSWER PART 3 IN PICTURE PLEASE**** Demand for Thunder games in Oklahoma City is given by: P(0)=430-20 Seattle does not currently have an NBA team, but they would like to attract the the Thunder. ok ok ok Demand for Thunder games in Seattle is given by: P (Q) = 490 -20 The marginal cost of production in both cities is constant at MC = 70. Suppose that the Thunder faces an extra fixed cost of 10000 in Seattle because they need to build a new stadium if they move. If the Thunder decides to stay in Oklahoma City, they don't need to pay the fixed cost. Cities can still offer bids to attract the team. a) Will the Thunder move to Seattle? b) How much is the winning bid? c) What is the profit plus bid for the Thunder? d) What is the value minus bid for the winning city?

You manage a company that competes in an industry that is comprised of 3 equal-sized firms that produce similar products. A recent industry report indicates that the market is fairly saturated, in that a 10 percent industry-wide price increase would lead to a 22 percent decline in units sold by all firms in the industry. Currently, Congress is considering legislation that would impose a tariff on a key input used by the industry. Your best estimate is that, if the legislation passes, your marginal cost will increase by 1 dollar. Based on this information, what price increase would you recommend if the tariff legislation is passed by Congress? Instructions: Enter your response rounded to the nearest penny (two decimal places).
