You are the manager of Taurus Technologies, and your sole competitor is Spyder Technologies. The two firms' products are viewed as identical by most consumers. The relevant cost functions are C(Q_i) = 4Q_i, and the inverse market demand curve for this unique product is given by P = 940 3 Q.Currently, you and your rival simultaneously (but independently) make production decisions, and the price you fetch for the product depends on the total amount produced by each firm.

(Assume Taurus Technologies is the leader in this scenario.) What are your profits if you do not make the investment?
