Profits are total revenue minus total costs. A little algebra shows that we can compute profits from average revenue and average costs at any level of q: π =TR−TC π = TR − TC qqq TR = AR q TC = ATC q π = AR − ATC q π =(AR−ATC)q The equation says that we take average revenue minus average total cost (that’s profit per unit) and multiply times the number of units to get profits. In the graph, this computation is simply the area of the shaded rectangle. An oligopoly is a market dominated

Competition for scarce resources P´ ter Es˝ ∗ e o and Lucy White∗∗∗ Volker Nocke∗∗ We model a downstream industry where firms compete to buy capacity in an upstream market which allocates capacity efficiently. Although downstream firms have symmetric production technologies, we show that industry structure is symmetric only if capacity is sufficiently scarce. Otherwise it is asymmetric, with one large, “fat,” capacity-hoarding firm and a fringe of smaller, “lean,” capacity-constrained firms. As demand varies
