Answer:

see explaination

Explanation:

Since marginal cost is zero in this case. Cartel will select the output such that MR=0

We observe that MR=0 at Q=2000 units

Corresponding price for a output of 2000 units is $1.50

So,

Output of each firm=q=Q/2=2000/2=10000

Profit of each firm=P*q-total cost=1.5*1000-0=$1500

So,

Profit for Quick Buch=$1500

Profit for Pushy Sales=$1500

Since Quick buck reduces the price to $1, it will capture the whole quantity demanded

Total quantity demanded at price of $1=3000

Profit for quick buck=P*Q-Total Cost=1*3000-0=$3000

Profit for Pushy Sales=P*Q-Total Cost=1.5*0-0=$0
