1. Consider two duopolists who each have a constant marginal cost c = e2 = 3 and face inverse demand P = 15 – Q,where Q = Q1 + Q2 is the total output of both firms. 1. Find the Cournot equilibrium quantity for each firm, the resulting market price, and the profits for each firm. 2. Find the Stackelberg equilibrium quantities for each firm, and the price, and the profits for each firm supposing that Firm 1 is the industry leader. 3. Suppose that Firm 2 figures out a way to lower its marginal cost to ez = 0 while firm 1 still has a marginal cost equal to 1: c = 3. How does this affect the Cournot equilibrium quantities, price, and profits? 4. How does this affect the Stackelberg equilibrium (with Firm 1 still as the leader) quantities, price, and profits?

The inverse demand function in a market is given by P = 500- Q. The fırms that operate in this market have zero fixed costs, and constant marginal costs equal to MC = 2O. %3D
Cournot Duopoly Suppose that Coca Cola and Pepsi companies compete in quantity sold in a small town. The market demand function for soda in the small town is given by the demand function: Q 10,000 P where Q is the aggregate quantity demanded and P is the price of a can of soda. Let Qp be the number of cans of soda sold by the Pepsi company and Qc be the number sold by the Coca Cola company. Assuming that the marginal cost of producing a can of soda is the same for both companies and equal to 50 cents, find the Nash equilibrium of the soda market in this small town. Illusrate the Nash equilibrium by using the best repsonse functions of both companies. %3D
In a market with a Duopoly, if Market Demand is P=300-Q find the Cournot reaction curves and the Cournot Quantity solutions then deduce the Price in the case where Marginal Costs curves for either of the Duopoly firms is MC₁=q₁+30 and MC2=q2+30. Compare your results to the case where a Monopolist that has a MC=Q+30 replaces the Duopoly. What are the Monopoly Quantity and Price? Which quantities are bigger, Cournot or Monopoly? What is the Consumer Surplus in both cases? Set-up the Oligopoly model in a game theoretical prisoner's dilemma framework. Explain briefly the strategies and how you reach the Nash Equilibrium.
