Consider two firms engaging in sequential Stackelberg competition. Suppose firm 1 decides its quantity x1 first and firms 2 follows after observing x1. The demand function of the market is x(p) = 100 0.1p and the cost function for both firms are c(x) = FC + 52 a. Suppose first that FC = 0. Derive firm 2s best response function to observing firm 1s output level x1. b. What output level will firm 1 choose? c. What output level does that imply firm 2 will choose? d. What is the equilibrium Stackelberg price? e. Now suppose FC is not zero. What is the lowest FC at which firm 1 does not have to engage in strategic entry deterrence in order to keep firm 2 out of the market?
