is a producer attempting to steal customers away from other producers in
HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN
the form of lower prices.

HN HN HN HN HN HN H N HN HN HN HN HN HN H N HN
is

a. Net benefits are N(Q) = 20 + 24Q – 4Q2.

b. Net benefits when Q = 1 are N(1) = 20 + 24 – 4 = 40 and when Q
HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN
= 5 they are N(5) = 20 + 24(5) – 4(5)2 = 40.

c. Marginal net benefits are MNB(Q) = 24 – 8Q.

when Q

they are MNB(5) = 24 – 8(5) = -16.
HN HN H N HN H N HN HN HN
e. Setting MNB(Q) = 24 – 8Q = 0 and solving for Q, we see that net
HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN HN H N
benefits are maximized when Q = 3.
HN HN HN HN HN HN HN
f. When net benefits are maximized at Q = 3, marginal net benefits are
HN HN HN HN HN H N HN HN HN HN HN HN
zero. That is,
HN HN HN
MNB(3) = 24 – 8(3) = 0. HN HN H N HN HN HN
