Suppose a single firm has constant marginal cost and faced the demand curve 
a. Illustrate in this graph how a monopolist who cannot price discriminate would price this good. What is the monopoly price and quantity?
b. Suppose two firms with the same marginal cost as the monopolist operated in this market instead. Suppose quantity is the strategic variable and the two firms simultaneously choose quantity. On a graph with firm 1's output on the horizontal and firm 2's output on the vertical, illustrate firm 2's best response function with numerical labels for each intercept. c. Add firm 1's best response function and determine the Nash equilibrium quantities. d. What's the equilibrium price resulting from the quantities you determined in (c)? e. What would be the equilibrium price if the strategic variable for the firms were price instead? What will be an ideal response?

Both the trade and budget balance were in roughly zero until the 1980s when the budget deficit increased dramatically and the U.S. trade deficit increased dramatically
However, during the late 1990s the budget deficit shrank—in fact, moving to surplus—at the same time that the U.S. trade deficit increased significantly. Since 2000, the budget deficit has increased significantly, particularly after 2008.What is the relationship between a country's trade balance and its stance as a borrower or lender? Historically, has the U.S. been a net lender or net borrower? Why do you think that this is? Do you think that the U.S. budget situation might have anything to do with this?
