1) 80 thousand
2) $40 is the equilibrium price because demand curve intersects supply curve at this price.
3) Increase in cost of crude oil increases the cost of production of good and thus decreases supply. Decrease in supply shifts supply curve leftwards causing equilibrium price = $ 55
4) Equilibrium price increases by 55 - 40 = $ 15
5) Price of natural gas is the substitute good for heating oil.
Increase in the price of natural gas increases the demand of heating oil as people substitute natural gas for heating oil. This shifts demand curve rightwards causing increase in equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity.
More demand of heating oil. Upward pressure on price.

3. Understanding changes in equilibrium price and quantity Suppose you are an analyst in the oil refinery industry and are responsible for estimating the equilibrium price and quantity of home heating oil. To do so, you must consider factors that can affect the supply of and demand for heating oil. Determinants of the demand for heating oil include household income, the price of an oil furnace (a complementary good for heating oil), and the price of natural gas (a substitute...

12.10. Suppose that the total market demand for crude oil is given by Qp70,000 - 2,000 P, where Qp is the quantity of oil in thousands of barrels per year and P is the dollar price per barrel. Suppose also that there are 1,000 identical small producers of crude oil, each with marginal costs given by MC = q+5, where q is the output of the typical firm a. Assuming that each small oil producer acts as a price taker,...
Suppose that a country imports 2 billion barrels of crude oil per year and domestically produces another 4 billion barrels of crude oil per year. All the domestic production is consumed by domestic consumers (i.e. there are no exportations). The world price of crude oil is $80 per barrel. Assuming linear demand and supply schedules, economists estimate the price elasticity of domestic supply to be 0.3 and the price elasticity of domestic demand to be -0.15 at the current equilibrium....
