Then assume the government imposes a price floor of p2. How does this affect the market?
Consider the market for soybeans illustrated in the figure below. Assume the market is initially in equilibrium at point A. Then assume the government imposes a price floor of p2. How does this affect the market?
The price floor results in an equilibrium where supply equals demand.
The price floor results in a surplus of corn.
The price floor is not binding and has no effect
The price floor results in a shortage of corn
Homework Answers
The correct answer is (b) the price floor will result in surplus of corns
Initially Market is in equilibrium at Point A and Hence, Equilibrium Price = p1. Now Suppose government Impose a Price Floor at p2 i.e. Minimum Price possible in the Market is p2. As p2 > p1, Hence Price floor is binding and market will not reach its equilibrium. At p2 Quantity demand QD and Quantity supplied = QS. Surplus occurs in the market when Quantity supplied > Quantity demand and Shortage occurs in the market when Quantity supplied < Quantity demand. Here QS > QD, HenceThere will be surplus of corns.
Hence the correct answer is (b) the price floor will result in surplus of corns

Consider the market for soybeans illustrated in the figure below.
Consider the market for soybeans illustrated in the figure below. Assume the market is initially in equilibrium at point A. Suppose the price of peas increases (and that peas are a substitute for soybeans). How does this affect the market? The soybean demand curve will shift to the right. The soybean demand curve will shift to the left. The soybean supply curve will shift to the right. The soybean supply curve will shift to the left

Consider the market for corn. Suppose the market demand and supply curves are as given. Demand: P = 270-3QD; Supply P = 30 + QS. Price is the price per metric ton (in cents). 1) Calculate the equilibrium price (P) and quantity (Q). 2) If the government impose a price floor of 100 cents per metric ton on corn, calculate the quantity demanded, quantity supplies and the surplus/ shortage at this price.

Many governments control the price of tobacco by creating a price floor. If a government decides to create a price floor for a product, the economy will have a deadweight loss. Draw a supply and demand curve and show how the price floor will create deadweight loss. In your diagram show the areas for Consumer Surplus, Producer Surplus, and Deadweight Loss. Government regulations in some countries do not allow Milk price to be more than a certain price. Should we...
