a.Determine equations for P=f(Q), MR=f(Q), ATC=f(Q, Q²), AVC=f(Q, Q²), MC=f(Q, Q²). Recall that your marginal equations should be derivatives of your totals!

b.Determine the profit-maximizing price and quantity. (Since MC is in terms of Q², solving with calculus and algebra can be messy. Your table should give an exact answer.)

c.How much total profit would your firm earn if you set P and Q according to part b?

d.Describe the competitiveness of the market by calculating the Lerner index.
