Suppose that price-taking consumers in the rest of the world have demand for crude oil given by: P = 500-075Q Assume that price-taking fringe suppliers of crude oil in the rest of the world have marginal costs given by: p = 400 + 0.6Q Suppose that Saudi Arabia has marginal costs given by: P = 50 + 0.25Q. And that Iran has marginal costs given by: P = 50 + 0.50 Assume that neither Iran nor Saudi Arabia has demand of their own.
