* Assume that Coca-Cola and PepsiCo obtain similar profits. We know Pepsi’s profit is $1.03 billion, 5% less than
last years. So to calculate last year’s profit: x- .05x= 1.03, so x=1.08. We take $1.08 billion to be the profit from
maximum price estimation, and $1.03 billion for the profit if both engaged in a price war. If only one company
engaged in a price war they would gain 70% of the market, and the other would only have 30% of the market.
