- One of the observations that has been made about the pricing of products produced in an industry where production is highly concentrated is that the costs of production can change up or down and yet prices do not change much. The Sweezy model was developed to explain this observation. Present a Sweezy model, show a cost change, and show that the optimal choice for the firm is to leave the product price unchanged. Provide words to explain the basic reason why the price does not move up or down as costs change.Identify nine common pricing methods.The widget market is competitive and includes no transaction costs. Five suppliers are willing to sell one widget at the following prices: $18, $14, $12, $6, and $3 (one seller at each price). Five buyers are willing to buy one widget at the following prices: $12, $14, $18, $28, and $34 (one buyer at each price). For each price shown in the following table, use the given information to enter the quantity demanded and quantity supplied. Quantity Demanded Quantity Supplied (widgets) (widgets) Price ($ per widget) $3 $6 $12 $14 $18 $28 $34 In this market, the equilibrium price will be per widget, and the equilibrium quantity will be 4 5 0 3 1 2 widgets.

The managers estimate that their total costs increase by $20,000 for each car they produce. They also estimate the demand curve they face; it is described by the equation: Q = -0.4 P + 16,000, where Q represents the quantity of Honda Accords they will sell and P represents the price they charge in US dollars. We can re-write that demand curve as: P = 40,000 - 2.5 Q. Take every possibly quantity that the managers might choose between 0 and 7,000 in units of 100. For each possible quantity, calculate the associated price the managers would need to charge, the revenue they would earn, and the total costs. You can then calculate profits for each level of quantity. Highlight the cell that contains the highest value of profit.Suppose that managers at Honda are deciding how to price the new Honda Accord.

Finally, you can also approximate marginal revenue here as the change in total revenue after the next 100 cars are produced. At what quantity does marginal revenue roughly equal marginal cost?…
- Suppose a firm sells two goods, Good A and Good B. Use the following information to Calculate the mark-up and the profit-maximizing price that the firm should change for Good B. Profit maximizing price of Good A = $6000 MC at profit-maximizing level of output of Good A = $1200 MC at profit-maximizing level of output of Good B = $400 Total revenue of Good A = $80000 Total revenue of Good B = $68000 Rothschild index of Good B = 0.6 Price elasticity of the market demand for Good B = -1.2The widget market is competitive and includes no transaction costs. Five suppliers are willing to sell one widget at the following prices: $30, $20, $10, $5, and $3 (one seller at each price).
