The inverse demand curve for the good is: P = 240-Q, where Q is the total quantity produced by the two firms. Each firm has a constant marginal cost 20 of producing the good and fixed cost = 100. Find the Cournot Nash equilibrium of this game. What quantity will each firm produce? what will be the market price? What would be the profits of each firm?arrow_forward

(a) The following two-by-two game is a little harder to solve since firm 2’spreferred strategy depends of what firm 1 does. But firm 1 has a dominantstrategy so this game has one Nash equilibrium.

(b) What would the outcome of this game be if instead firm 1 moved first and then, after seeing what firm 1 chose, firm 2 chose it strategy? In this case firm 1 doesn’t necessarily need to choose a best response, but firm 2 must choose a best response since it moves second.arrow_forward
