Question 3 In a small college town, there is one fast food chain with two branches. Each branch faces its own demand curve for burgers: QP = 50 - Q = 45- 3P2 2 The firm's cost function is given by: C(Q) = 20 This means that the firm has constant marginal cost: MC = 2 (a) Suppose that the firm charges the same price at both locations. Find the profit-maximizing price p* it will charge. (b) What profit does the firm earn in the above situation?
