Managerial Economics-Charles W. Upton Equilibrium with Different Cost Functions

2 We have discussed equilibrium when all firms, both potential and actual, have the same cost function.

Equilibrium with Different Cost Functions 3 We have discussed equilibrium when all firms, both potential and actual, have the same cost function. We now turn to the case where there are different cost functions.

Equilibrium with Different Cost Functions 4 The Graphical Analysis AC MC The basics are still the same. Each firm has a MC and AC function.

Equilibrium with Different Cost Functions 5 The Graphical Analysis AC MC p1p1 q1q1 At p 1, the firm will supply q 1 units

Equilibrium with Different Cost Functions 6 The Graphical Analysis AC MC p1p1 p2p2 q1q1 q2q2 At p 2, the firm will supply q 2 units

Equilibrium with Different Cost Functions 7 The Graphical Analysis AC MC p1p1 p2p2 q1q1 q2q2 At p min, the firm will supply q min units p min q min

Equilibrium with Different Cost Functions 8 Supply with Three Firms AC MC p1p1 q1q1 When p=p 1, only one firm produces

Equilibrium with Different Cost Functions 9 Supply with Three Firms AC MC p4p4 p3p3 p2p2 p1p1 q2q2 q 1 q 2 q3q3 When p rises to p 2, the first firm increases output and a second enters.

Equilibrium with Different Cost Functions 10 Supply with Three Firms AC MC p4p4 p3p3 p2p2 p1p1 q 2 q 3 q 1 q 2 q 3 q3q3 At p=p 3, the third firm enters

Equilibrium with Different Cost Functions 11 Supply with Three Firms AC MC p4p4 p3p3 p2p2 p1p1 q 2 q 3 q 4 q 1 q 2 q 3 q 4 q 3 q 4 At p=p 4, even more output

Equilibrium with Different Cost Functions 12 Supply with Three Firms AC MC p4p4 p3p3 p2p2 p1p1 q 2 q 3 q 4 q 1 q 2 q 3 q 4 q 3 q 4 Each firm sets MC=P

Equilibrium with Different Cost Functions 13 The Industry Supply Curve p1p1 q1q1 No output until price rises to p 1. There, the first firm begins producing.

Equilibrium with Different Cost Functions 14 The Industry Supply Curve p2p2 p1p1 q 1 q 2 As price rises from p 1 to p 2, the first firm moves along its marginal cost curve.

Equilibrium with Different Cost Functions 15 The Industry Supply Curve p2p2 p1p1 q 1 q 2 q2+q2q2+q2 At p 2, the second firm begins producing.

Equilibrium with Different Cost Functions 16 The Industry Supply Curve p3p3 p2p2 p1p1 q 1 q 2 q2+q2q2+q2 q3+q3q3+q3 As price rises from p 2 to p 3, the first two firms moves along their marginal cost curves.

Equilibrium with Different Cost Functions 17 The Industry Supply Curve p3p3 p2p2 p1p1 q 1 q 2 q2+q2q2+q2 q3+q3q3+q3 q3+q3+q3q3+q3+q3 At p 3 the third firm enters.
