Determination of optimal price and output for two firms
Two firms face a demand equation given by P=200,000 -6(Q1 + Q2) where Q1 and Q2 are the outputs of the two firms. The total cost equations for the two firms are given by: TC1 = 8000Q1 and TC2 = 8000Q2. If each firm sets its own output rate for profit maximization, and the other firm holds constant, what is the optimal outp
