Consider two identical firms (firm 1 and firm 2) that face a linear market demand curve. Each firm has a marginal cost of zero, and the two firms together face demand: P = 150 - 0.25Q, where Q = Q1 + Q2. Find the Cournot equilibrium quantity and market price for each firm. (10)

Consider a Cournot duopoly. The market demand function is P = 130 - (q1 + q2), where P is the market price, q1 is the output produced by Firm 1 and q2 is the output produced by Firm 2. The two firms have a constant marginal cost c =10. The pure strategy Nash equilibrium of this game is: A. (q1*, q2*) = (20, 20) B. (q1*, q2*) = (10, 10) C. (q1*, q2*) = (30, 30) D. (q1*, q2*) = (40, 40)

Consider an industry with two firms, 1 and 2, each producing output Q1 and Q2 respectively and facing the industry demand given by P = 140 - Q, where P is the market price and Q represents the total industry output, that is Q = Q1 + Q2. Assume that each firm faces a marginal cost of ₹20 per unit with no fixed costs. Solve for the Cournot equilibrium in such an industry.
