You own Athleticon, which manufactures athletic wear. Your new contract with Atlanta United, a professional soccer team, allows Athleticon to be the sole suppler of athletic wear with the “Atlanta United” logo. No one lese can manufacture athletic wear with the “Atlanta United” logo. What do you think will be Athleticon’s level of profitability on the sale of “Atlanta United” athletic wear? Explain why. Your contract with Atlanta United only lasts 3 years. It was not renewed. Other firms can now manufacture athletic wear with the “Atlanta United” logo It is now 5 years after your contract with Atlanta United was terminated. Any manufacturer that wants to can manufacture and sell athletic wear with the “Atlanta United” logo. What do you think will be the level of profitability and rate of return on manufacturing athletic wear with the “Atlanta United” logo? Explain why.
Raphael's Fire Engines is the sole seller of fire engines in the fictional country of Pyrotania. Initially, Raphael produced eight fire engines, but he has decided to increase production to nine fire engines. The following graph shows the demand curve Raphael faces. As you can see, to sell the additional engine, Raphael must lower his price from $80,000 to $40,000 per fire engine. Note that while Raphael gains revenue from the additional engine he sells, he also loses revenue from the initial eight engines because he sells them all at the lower price. Use the purple rectangle (diamond symbols) to shade the area representing the revenue lost from the initial eight engines by selling at $40,000 rather than $80,000. Then use the green rectangle (triangle symbols) to shade the area representing the revenue gained from selling an additional engine at $40,000. 200 180 160 Revenue Lost 140 120 Revenue Gained 100 80 Demand 60 40 20 2 3 4. 6. 7 8 9 10 QUANTITY (Fire engines) PRICE (Thousands of…

How does a company like Walmart, determine its techniques to estimate and forecast its competitive advantage?
Please no written by hand solution Considerthe following problem. There are five firms producing a homogenous good and competing in quantities simultaneously. The demand function for this good is given by D(p) = 100−p, where p denotes price. The marginal cost is the same for all firms and equals 40 Answer the following questions. (a) Compute the equilibrium quantities and profits of each firm. (b) Now suppose that two of these firms (say firms 1 and 2) want to merge. (The remaining firms stay unchanged.) Merging, however, is costly. To merge, each merging firm has to pay a fixed cost F. Determine the highest fixed cost F that the two firms would be willing to pay in order to proceed with the merger.
