Homework Answers
1) CS = 0.5*50*(20-10) = 250
PS = 0.5*50*(10-0) = 250
TS= CS+PS = 500
2) Price received by producers = 4
Quantity produced = 20
PS = 0.5*20*(4-0) = 40
3) Price paid by consumers = 4
Quantity consumed = 20
CS = 0.5*20*(20-16) + 20*(16-4) = 40+240 = 280
4) DWL = 0.5*(50-20)*(16-4) = 180
5) The consumers benefits as the equilibrium price decreases and they pay a lower price
