a. Assume that the market price is established by the following equations:
Supply Curve: P = 10 - 2Q + 0.15Q2
Demand Curve: P = 14.6 - 0.8Q
Where P is price and Q is Quantity of output of a particular commodity.
Assume also that a particular firm is operating under perfect competition and that its cost and revenue functions are:
TC = 10Q – Q2 + 0.05Q3
TR = PQ
Where TC is total cost, TR is total revenue and P is price.
i. Find the market price for this commodity in question.
ii. Draw the tota…
