The market demand function for a good is given by Q = D(p) = 800 − 50p. For each firm that produces the good the total cost function is TC(Q) = 4Q+( Q2/2) . Recall that this means that the marginal cost is MC(Q) = 4 + Q. Assume that firms are price takers. In the short run (with 100 firms), and assume that the government imposes a tax of $3 per unit. (a) What would be the new equilibrium...
