5) Let market demand for a Cournot duopoly be represented by $P = 4500 - (2Q_1 + 2Q_2)$, while total costs for firm 1 and 2 are respectively, $TC_1(Q_1) = 12Q_1^2$ and $TC_2(Q_2) = 12Q_2^2$. Calculate equilibrium output, price, and profit of each firm. 10 pts

Step 1
The market demand equation is given as P = 4500 - (2Qi + 2Q), where Qi represents the quantity produced by firm i and Q represents the total quantity produced in the market. To find the total quantity demanded, we need to sum up the quantities produced by both Show more…

Consider a firm with the demand function P(Q) = (50 - 2Q), and the total cost function TC(Q) = 10,000 + 10Q. Find the profit maximizing quantity. Calculate the profit maximizing price (or the market price). Hint: MR(Q) = (50 - 4Q).

Find the equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity for the following market: Supply: P = Q^2 + 200 Demand: P = -Q^2 + 1000

Consider a market that is a Bertrand oligopoly with 5 firms in the market. Each of these firms produce an identical product and each have the same cost function of C(Q) = 80Q. The inverse market demand for this product is P = 2480 – 2Q. How much does EACH firm produce at the equilibrium price?
