While there is a degree of differentiation between major grocery chains like Albertsons and Kroger, theregular offering of sale prices by both firms for many of their products provides evidence that these firmsengage in price competition. For markets where Albertsons and Kroger are the dominant grocers, thissuggests that these two stores simultaneously announce one of two prices for a given product: a regularprice or a sale price. Suppose that when one firm announces the sale price and the other announces theregular price for a particular product, the firm announcing the sale price attracts 1000 extra customers toearn a profit of $5000, compared to the $3000 earned by the firm announcing the regular price. Whenboth firms announced the sale price, the two firms split the market equally (each getting an extra 500customers) to earn profits of $2000 each. When both firms announced the regular price, each companyattracts only its 1500 loyal customers and the firms each earned $4500 in…

Calculate the profit- maximizing price-quantity combinations using the following four oligopoly pricing models listed below demonstrating that: а. Under the Cournot model, both firms will earn same level of profit and determine industry profit and explain why this is would be the case. b. Under the Cartel model each firm earns a higher profit than under Cournot. Under the Quasi-competitive model, the firm will make a loss equivalent to fixed cost. С. d. Under the Stackelberg's model the leader will earn more than twice the profit of the follower and that total industry profits will be lower than under both Cournot and Cartel models. Explain why this is would be the case. I + II II !!!

QUESTION 4 If Bertrand duopolists respectively have marginal costs of 10 (firm 1) and 8 (firm 2), which of the prices below can arise in Nash equilibrium? (Assume that prices must be quoted in full cents, e.g. $0.99 or $1, but $0.995 is not possible. If prices are equal, half of the customers buy from each firm.) O Both firms charge $8.01. Firm 1 charges $10 and firm 2 charges $8. Both firms charge $9. Firm 1 charges $10 and firm 2 charges $9.99.
H7. For q1=120-2p1-p2 and q2=120-2p2+p1, show that the duopolists have incentives to collude as well as find the -joint profit-maximizing price, output and profit and find each firm’s price, output and profit. What is the optimal defection of each firm, is collusion Nash equilibrium? Show in 2x2 matrix. Is it a prisoner’s dilemma?

15. Consider two competing firms, JR and OG. Suppose OG produces an estab- lished product and JR can either produce a clone or a differentiated product. If JR produces a clone, OG can either sue JR or not sue it. If JR produces a differentiated product rather than a clone, OG can either buy JR or not buy it. The two firms are in a non-cooperative game whose extensive form is rep- resented in the tree diagram below, where the payoffs on the right represent profits. -1 for OG 1 for JR sue OG don't -2 for OG clone sue 1 for JR JR don't clone 1 for OG -1 for JR buy OG don't buy 2 for OG 0 for JR If the two firms' managers are rational and recognize each other as rational, then (a) JR clones and OG sues (b) JR does not clone and OG buys (c) JR does not clone and OG does not buy (d) JR clones and OG does not sue (e) JR clones and OG sues with probability .5
2. Consider a duopoly with firms selling identical goods. Firms are assumed to face a linear demand function, identical constant marginal costs and zero fixed costs. a. Assume decisions are taken in a two stage game. In stage 1, Firm A chooses quantity, in stage 2, Firm B chooses quantity. Use graphical analysis and economic intuition to obtain the Subgame Perfect Nash Equilibrium Strategies. b. What would happen in a) if you add a stage 3 to the above game where firm A can change its quantity? c. Assume now that firms choose prices. Firm A chooses price in stage 1 and Firm B chooses price in stage 2. Use graphical analysis and economic intuition to explain the price consumers will pay d. How would your answer in part c change if firms had different constant marginal costs?
