Two firms, A and B, both produce brushes. The price of brushes is $1.75 each. Firm A has total fixed costs of $451,100 and variable costs of 59 cents per brush. Firm B has total fixed costs of $260,000 and variable costs of 72 cents per brush. The corporate tax rate is 35%. If the economy is strong, each firm will sell 1,511,000 brushes. If the economy enters a recession, each firm will sell 974,500 brushes.
