Its marginal cost MC = -5 + 2Q,and market demand is P = 55-2Q, marginal revenue MR = 55 - 4Q. Please find: (1)What price and output should Safety Co.set to maximize profit? (2)What is the deadweight loss 無謂福利損失 from monopoly power if Safety Co. acted like a perfect competitor? 2.(15%)(a double market)Suppose two indentical firms produce a homogeneous good face a linear market demand curve P = 36-Q, where Q is the total production of both firms, i.e. Q = q1 + q2,q1 and q2 are the output of firm 1 and firm 2,respectively. MR = 36-2Q Also, suppose that both firms have zero marginal cost : MC1 = MC2 =0 Each firm maximizes its own profit, and find Firm 1's reaction curve: q1 = 18 - q2/2, Firm 2's reaction curve: q2 = 18 - q1/2, Please find: (1)the Cournot equilibrium quantity of firm 1 and 2, qc1 and qc2,and the equilibrium market price Pc0. (2)the monopoly output Qm and monopoly price Pm. (3)if two firms agree to share profits equally, what output each firm will produce q01 and q02? (4)If it is in a perfect competition market, what is the equilibrium market output Qc and Pc and profitΠ? 3.(10%)For a given firm, the marginal revenue product of labor MRPL= $50 and the marginal revenue product of capital MRPK= $100 while the unit price of labor PL= $10 and the capital service price PK= $20. (1)Is the firm maximizing profits? Why or why not? (2)Identify a specific action that would increase this firm's profits. --
