Price is set in a market by a dominant firm price leader (L = Leader). Total Market Demand is P = 10,000-20*QT. The dominant firm price leader’s (L = Leader or Dominant Firm) total cost is TCL = 60*QL + 1.5*QL2. The competitive fringe supply (F = Fringe) is SF = PL = 100 + 2QF. Determine the price set by the Dominant Firm. The Dominant Firm price
Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- Price is set in a market by a dominant firm price leader (L = Leader). Total Market Demand is P = 10,000-20*QT. The dominant firm price leader’s (L = Leader or Dominant Firm) total cost is TCL = 60*QL + 1.5*QL2. The competitive fringe supply (F = Fringe) is SF = PL = 100 + 2QF. Determine the price set by the Dominant Firm. The Dominant Firm price = ____. The answer already provided has different numbers.A dominant or price setting firm and several smaller price takers serve a market where total market demand is Qd = 560-2P and the combined supply from all the smaller firms is Qs = -60 +2P. Does this market meet the assumptions that the dominant firm has at least a market share of 50%? (you must motivate your answer numerically)A market has many small firms and one dominant firm. The market demand is Q = 100-5P. The dominant firm has a constant marginal cost of $6. All the smaller fringe firms combined have a supply curve given by Qs = 4P-8. The dominant firm sets the market price, and the fringe firms act as price takers. The dominant firm allows the fringe firms to sell as (Enter your responses many units as they want at the price set by the dominant firm. The rest of the market is then supplied by the dominant firm. The profit-maximizing quantity produced by the dominant firm is units and the price it charges is $ as integers.) The fringe firms will produce and sell a total of units at the market price r your response as an integer.)

The market demand is Q = 100 - 5P. The dominant firm has a constant marginal cost of $6. All the smaller fringe firms combined have a supply curve given by Qe = 4P -8.

The rest of the market is then supplied by the dominant firm. units, and the price it charges is $ (Enter your responses as integers.) The profit-maximizing quantity produced by the dominant firm is
- Suppose Firm X is a dominant firm in a market where the market demand is Q = 1200 -2p. Once Firm X sets its price, those small competitors set their prices a little lower so that they can always sell up to their capacity. Assume the small firms’ combined capacity is 100 units. Further assume Firm X’s marginal cost is 50. Answer the following questions. Let Q^D be the quantity produced by the dominant firm. Write down the residual demand function faced by Firm X. (Hint: Think about how Q and Q^D are related.) Find Firm X’s profit-maximizing price.A market consists of a dominant firm and a number of fringe firms.
