Consider a market supply and demand represented by the following: Qs = 4P – 120 and Qd = 1000 – 10P. Use this information to answer the following questions. Calculate equilibrium price and quantity. What is the consumer surplus? If the government imposes an excise tax of $2, what would be the new equilibrium price, quantity? What would happen to the consumer surplus?
Consider the following equations: SUPPLY: Q=10+2P DEMAND: Q=60-3P b) If the government imposes a ceiling price (P max) of $8.50 per unit. Would it result in a shortage or a surplus or a surplus? Show in the graph.
Consider the following supply and demand curves. Supply: q = 800 + 400 p Demand: q = 2400 − 400 p . Use these equations to respond to the following questions. (a) What is the market equilibrium price and quantity? (b) What is the Consumer Surplus? (c) What is the Producer Surplus? (d) What is Total Surplus? (e) At the equilibrium price, what is the elasticity of demand?
A market is described by the following supply and demand curves: Qs = 3P Qd = 400-P The equilibrium price is S and the equilibrium quantity is Suppose the government imposes a price ceiling of $80. This price ceiling is , and the market price will be supplied will be . and the quantity demanded will be . Therefore, a price calling of $60 will result in the quantity the quantity Suppose the government imposes a price floor of $80....
Consider a market where supply and demand are given by Q(s) = -10 + 3P(x) and Q(d) = 130 – 2P(x) where P(x) is the price of good X. Assume that the government imposes a price ceiling of $50. What is the impact on the market (make sure to calculate the appropriate surplus or shortage, if needed)?
The demand and supply curves are given by q=130−3p and q=2p−60, respectively; the equilibrium price is $38 and the equilibrium quantity is 16 units. A sales tax of 2% is imposed on the consumer. (a) Find the equation of the new demand and supply curves. b) Find the new equilibrium price and quantity. (c) How much is paid in taxes on each unit? How much of this is paid by the consumer and how much by the producer? (d) How...
Consider the market for mountain bikes. The following graph shows the demand and supply for mountain bikes before the government imposes any taxes. First, use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price and quantity of mountain bikes in the absence of a tax. Then use the green point (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing total consumer surplus (CS) at the equilibrium price. Next, use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing total producer...

Consider the following equations: SUPPLY: Q=10+2P DEMAND: Q=60-3P d) The government imposes a tax of 2 dollars per unit produced to the suppliers. Compute the new equation and graph.
Consider the market for designer purses. The following graph shows the demand and supply for designer purses before the government imposes any taxes.First, use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price and quantity of designer purses in the absence of a tax. Then use the green point (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing total consumer surplus (CS) at the equilibrium price. Next, use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing total producer surplus...
