CHAPTER 9 OLIGOPOLY AND FIRM ARCHITECTURE 1. The demand function for a product sold by an oligopolist is given below: QD = 370 – P The firm’s marginal cost function is given below: MC = 10 + 4Q Calculate the equilibrium price and quantity. Solution: P = 370 – Q so TR = 370Q – Q2 and MR = 370 – 2Q MR = 370 – 2Q = 10 + 4Q = MC so Q = 60 and P = 310 2. The demand function for a product sold by an oligopolist is given below: QD = 135 – 0.5P The firm’s marginal cost function is given

= $24 Q7: Suppose the typical catfish farmer was incurring an economic loss at the prevailing price p1. What forces would raise the price? Prices would be raised if other catfish farmers drop out of the market. This will make the market supply shift to the left and therefore result in higher prices. What price would prevail in long-term equilibrium? The price that equals the level of minimum average total costs will be the prevailing price in the long-term equilibrium position. Illustrate

Supply and Demand Supply and Demand Microeconomics vs. Macroeconomics The supply and demand simulation shows different aspects of economic structures. Although mostly focused on microeconomics‚ the simulation does show a small role of macroeconomics. The principles of microeconomics would apply to drop in rent prices to increase the supply being demanded. Another microeconomic principle shown in the simulation is the rise in demand when the cost of rent is lowered. Macroeconomics principles
