In a homogeneous product duopoly, each firm has constant marginal cost equal to 10. The market inverse demand curve is p = 250 – 2Q where Q = q1 + q2 is the sum of the outputs of firms 1 and 2, and p is the price of the good. Marginal and average cost for each firm is 10. Word limit per question: 400 words (200 words per part of question)

(a) What are the Cournot and Bertrand equilibrium quantities and prices in this market? In a two period version of the model in which each firm can observe the other’s behaviour in the first period, will the firms collude?

(b) Find the outcome for the Stackelberg model, assuming firm 1 is the “leader” (i.e., moves first) and firm 2 is the “follower” (i.e., moves second).

This is the question, there is nothing that part of it, this is the only information given for this problem so please do not answer saying it needs more information because this is all I was given like I said. (Solve A and B)

A. Given a general short run production function y=f(x), where x is the single variable input and y is the output. what properties should we reasonably expect y=f(x) to possess so that it is "WELL BEHAVED".?

B. Now consider a quadratic polynomial production function y=2x^a. Assuming the input, x, is essential for production of y, what must be true of the signs and magnitudes of the parameter, a, so that the production function is "WELL BEHAVED"? Provide mathematical proofs and word explanations in your answer.

For this assignment, consider the research and analysis from prior assignments and apply the "Conceptual Framework for Managerial Costing," as discussed in the topic materials. Follow the process outlined in the "Where to Start" section of this topic resource. Assume Apple Inc is considering making a change, such as adding a new product or entering new markets. Your task is to determine what the "change" could be and the steps that would need to be taken in the decision-making process.

In a 700 word memo to the chief operating officer (COO) of Apple Inc, address the following.

  1. Summarize the proposed change Apple Inc is considering.
  2. Discuss the specific information that must be collected to perform the analysis on the proposed change.

Topic 4: Lab 3 Senses general and vision: discuss the functions and applications of the different aspects of the senses and tie it into the lab material.

Topic 5: Lab 4 smell, taste, and hearing: So think about it. you can include ideas to improve the lab in an online setting, explanations of exactly the why and how of sensation, in other words don't use the word for the different modalities but describe the process. why are balance and hearing tied together? what is the difference between conduction deafness and Sensorineural hearing loss, what are the different structures involved? why would the Rinne and Weber test tell you different things? Impress me with what kind of thinking you can do outside the box, be independent, be imaginative.

At a minimum, select three named arteries and provide the following for each: - A locational description using proper regional AND directional terminology - The course of the artery, the tissues supplied by it, and any anatomical landmarks that are associated with your selected artery (e.g. – The left subclavian artery arises from the arch of the aorta, and passes laterally inferior to the clavicle before passing the first rib. It has multiple branches including the vertebral artery, the interior thoracic artery, the thyrocervical trunk, the costocervical trunk, and the dorsal scapular artery.

Branches of the subclavian artery supply the cerebellum and brainstem and muscles of the cervical and scapular regions.) Your structure exploration should be submitted as a separate document (in either PDF or Word form), containing properly cited references (in APA format).

In the case Las Vegas Sands v. Nehme, reported on page 380 of your textbook, the casino's "marker" was found by the court to be a negotiable instrument. The Venetian (a hotel owned by Las Vegas Sands LLC) was then allowed to sued Nehme for not paying a negotiable instrument. In a 500 word paper discuss the required elements for a negotiable instrument. Is it feasible that the casino marker contained all of these elements? Explain whether or not you think that gambling casinos should be able to advance credit to gamblers. From what you know about how alcohol affects a person's capacity to contract, is the fact that most gamblers are also consuming alcohol a factor in your decision? Do you think people would not gamble as much if casinos did not offer "markers?"
