The market demand is given by Q=53-P. There are two firms in the market. Each firm has a marginal cost of $5 and there are no fixed costs. What are the price and outputs per firm in the Cournot equilibrium? a. Q1=Q2=20 and P=13 b. Q1=Q2=21 and P=11 c. Q1=Q2=18 and P=17 d. Q1=Q2=16 and P=21 e. Q1=Q2=15 and P=23

3.21 Each of the 10 firms in a competitive market has a cost function of C = 25 + q2, so its marginal cost is MC = 2q. The market demand function is Q = 120 - p. Determine the equilibrium price, quantity per firm, and market quantity.

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)

Each of the 10 firms in a competitive market has a cost function of $C=25+q^{2},$ so its marginal cost is $M C=2 q$. The market demand function is $Q=120-p .$ Determine the equilibrium price, quantity per firm, and market quantity. A
