Suppose that the duopolists Carl and Simon face an inverse demand function for pumpkins of P = 400 - Q, where Q = Qs + Qc is the

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

the Cournot-Nash equilibrium, Simon's production is 82 units

Explanation:

The Cournot-Nash Equilibrium for Simon's production is calculated as follows:

$P = 400 - Q \\ \\ Q = Q_s + Q_c$

Reaction function of Carl is as follows:

Carl maximize profit at $HR_c = HC_c$

$TR_c = P*Q_c$

$TR_c = (400 -Q_s -Q_c)Q_c$

$TR_c = 400Q_c -Q_sQ_c -Q_c^2$

⇒ $HR_c = \delta TR_c/ \delta Q_c$

$HR_c =400 -Q_s -2 Q_c$

$C_c = 30 Q_c + Q_c^2$

⇒ $HC_c = \delta C_c/ \delta Q_c$

$HC_c =30+2Q_c$

Set $HR_c = HC_c$

$400 - Q_s - 2 Q_c = 30 - 2Q_c \\ \\ 400 - Q_s -30 = 2Q_c + 2Q_c \\\\(370 Q_s) = 4 Q_c \\ \\ Q_c = (370-Q_s)/4 \\ \\ Q_c = 92.5 - 0.25 Q_s \to Reaction \ function \ of \ Carl --- equation (1)$

Reaction function of Simon

Since Simon maximize profit at $HR_s = HC_s$

$TR_s = PQ_s \\ \\ TR_s = (400-Q_c -Q_s)Q_s \\ \\ TR_s = 400 Q_s - Q_cQ_s - Q_s^2$

$HR_s = \delta TR_s/ \delta Q_s$

$HR_s =400 - Q_c -2Q_s$

$C_s = Q_s^2$

$HC_s= \delta C_s/ \delta Q_s$

$HC_s=2Q_s$

Set $HR_s = HC_s$

$400- Q_c - 2Q_s = 2Q_s \\ \\ 400 - Q_c = 2Q_s+2Q_s \\ \\ 4Q_s = 400 - Q_c \\ \\ Q_s = (4000- Q_c)/4 \\ \\ Q_s = 100 -0.25 Q_c --- Reaction \ function \ of \ Simon \ -- equation (2)$

Substituting equation (1) into equation (2)

$Q_s =100 -0.25Q_c \\ \\ Q_s = 100 - 0.25(92.5-0.25 Q_s) \\ \\ Q_s = 100 -23.125 +0.0625Q_s \\ \\ (Q_s-0.0625Q_s) = 76.375 \\ \\ 0.9375 Q_s = 76.875 \\ \\ Q_s = 76.375/0.9375 \\ \\ Q_s = 82$

Thus; the Cournot-Nash equilibrium, Simon's production is 82 units

"Assume that a seven-firm cartel supplies 500 million units of Whatailsya energy drink at a price of $5.00 per unit. Each firm s

vodomira [7]

Answer:

Incomplete question. Helpful details provided below.

Explanation:

A seven firm cartel implies a group of seven individual firms or companies that produce similar products who mutually agreed to supply certain amount of these products at a fixed price inorder to equally and fairly make profit.

In this case, the law of demand and supply applied resulting in a drop in price of Whatailsya because of excess supply.

Martha is a highly skilled employee at DistantTool Editorial. She specializes in web designing. Recently, she has been assigned

loris [4]

While working on the project, Martha is most likely to be bored and less creative than usual.

Specialisation is an economic theory that suggests a person carries out activities for which one has a comparative advantage in or is most efficient in. For example, Martha is skilled in web design, economic theory would suggest that she specialises in Web design.

Advantages of specialisation

The worker that carries out the same job function repeatedly becomes extremely skilled in the activity.
Work is carried out faster.

Disadvantages of specialisation

Work can become monotonous
Employees skills in other job functions declines.

If a person carries out the same rudimentary task repeatedly, it is likely that the individual would become bored. For example, if an engineer is employed to put marbles in a box. Soon he would become bored because the work he is doing is not mentally stimulating.

explain why a business that is small enough to be managed by one or a few people and does not require a large amount of capital

koban [17]

A business that is small enough to be run by one or a few people and does not require a large amount of capital would be good for a sole proprietorship.

This type of business structure has less bureaucracy and does not require a lot of formality to be managed, making it an ideal setting for family businesses, such as grocery stores and clothing stores.

Therefore, in a sole proprietorship, the owner is responsible for the risks inherent in the business, with greater freedom and flexibility.
