    Each firm will produce 20 : N units

    Explanation:

    Given that

    Q = 160N - P

    MR = 160N - 4Q

    TC = 150 + Q2

    MC = 4Q

    The computation of the number of units that each firm produce is as follows:-

    MR = MC

    where

    MR = 160N - 4Q

    And MC = 4Q

    Now we equate

    So, the equation is

    160 : N - 4Q = 4Q

    160 : N = 8Q

    Q = 160 : 8N

    Q = 20 : N

    So, each firm will produce 20 : N units.
