Two firms are located adjacent to one another and each imposes an ex- ternal cost on the other: the detergent that firm 1 uses in it’s laundry business makes the fish that firm 2 catches in the lake taste funny, and the smoke that firm 2 uses to smoke its caught fish makes the clothes that firm 1 hands out to dry smell funny. as a consequence, each firms profits are increasing it its own production and decreasing in the production of its neighboring firm. in particular, if q1 and q2 are the firms’ production levels then their per-period (stage game) profits are given by
vi(qi, qj)=(30−qj)qi −qi2
(a) draw the firms’ best response functions and find the nash equilibrium of the stage
for i ∈ {1, 2}.
game. how does this compare to the pareto optimal stage-game profit levels?
(b) for which levels of discount factors can the firms support the pareto optimal level of quantities in an infinitely repeated game?

Suppose that two firms produce differentiated products and compete in prices. as in class, the two firms are located at two ends of a line one mile apart. consumers are evenly distributed along the line. the firms have identical marginal cost, $60. firm b produces a product with value $110 to consumers. firm a (located at 0 on the unit line) produces a higher quality product with value $120 to consumers. the cost of travel are directly related to the distance a consumer travels to purchase a good. if a consumerhas to travel a mile to purchase a good, the incur a cost of $20. if they have to travel x fraction of a mile, they incur a cost of $20x. (a) write down the expressions for how much a consumer at location d would value the products sold by firms a and b, if they set prices p_{a} and p_{b} ? (b) based on your expressions in (a), how much will be demanded from each firm if prices p_{a} and p_{b} are set? (c) what are the nash equilibrium prices?
