1. Assume the following market supply and demand functions
Qs = 10 e0.1 P - 20
Qd = 150 e-0.2 P
Determine the equilibrium price and quantity.
2. A firm operating in a noncompetitive market has the following cost function
TC = Q3:
- 20Q2:
+ 150Q + 1000
The market demand function for the firm's product is Q = 3000 - 200 P0.8
Find the firm's profit-maximizing combination of price and quantity.
