A manufacturer of microwaves has discovered that male shoppers, on average, have lower values for microwave ovens than female shoppers. Additionally, male shoppers attribute almost no extra value to an auto-defrost feature, while female shoppers, on average, value the auto-defrost feature. The manufacturer has determined that men value a simple microwave at $70 and one with auto-defrost at $80, while women value a simple microwave at $80 and one with auto-defrost at $150. If there is an equal number of men and women, what pricing strategy will yield the greatest revenue?

TRUE/FALSE

TRUE/FALSE
If a country’s domestic price of a good is lower than the world price, then that country has a comparative advantage in producing that good.

Suppose there are two firms, Boors and Cudweiser, each selling identical-tasting nonalcoholic beer. Consumers of this beer have no brand loyalty so market demand can be expressed as P= 5−.001(QB+ QC). Boors’ marginal revenue function can be written MR= 5−.001(2QB+ QC)and symmetrically for Cudweiser. Boors operates with out-of-date technology and has constant cost of $2 per unit , whereas Cudweiser has constant cost of $1 per unit. How many “units” of beer will Cudweiser produce in the Nash equilibrium?

Shower Power, Inc., a firm in monopolistic competition, produces shower radios. The company's economists know that it can sell no radios at $80, and for each $10 cut in price, the quantity of radios it can sell increases by 50 a day. This relationship continues to hold until the price falls to $20. The firm's total fixed cost is $3,000 a day. Its marginal cost is constant at $20 per radio.
a)Draw the demand curve faced by the firm and its marginal revenue curve. Also, draw ShowerPower's marginal cost and average total cost curves.
