Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

The firm's supply is q = 0.5p; market supply is Q = 500p. Market equilibrium can be found as 500p = 600,000 - 100p, or 600p = 600,000, so p = 1,000 and Q = 500,000.
q = 0.5p = 500. Profit = (500  1,000 ) - (10 + 250,000 ) = 249,990. Each firm earns a profit.
