, ECS2601 – ASSESSMENT 6 – EXPECTED QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS - 2024
The Commission’s investigation revealed that Wesbank and TFS entered into an
agreement to divide markets by allocating customers or suppliers in the market for
the provision of vehicle finance in contravention of section 4(1)(b)(ii) of the
Competition Act. The motor vehicle finance market includes offering vehicle finance,
leases, and dealerships financing.
“FirstRand Bank Limited (FirstRand), through its WesBank division, and TFS are
involved in the provision of vehicle finance services. They are therefore supposed to
compete. They, however, concluded a shareholder agreement which contains
clauses that prevent them from competing,” the commission said.”
After an explicit agreement of collusion was confirmed by the commission and being
found to be illegal, Wesbank and Toyota each decided on their own to provide
vehicle finance at either a Cournot level or collusion level.
What is the Nash-Cournot equilibrium?
a.
80, 80
b.
90, 90
c.
60, 100
d.
100, 60
