a) Bucks measurements
For equllibrium price and quantity
Qd = Qs
Qs = P
Qd = 100-P ( from the equation P = 100-Qd)
100-P = P
100=2P
P = 50$
Equllibrium quantity = 100-P = 100-50 = 50
Inverse demand curve :
P = 100-Qd
P = 100+(-1)Qd which is in the form y = mx+c
m = slope = -1
Price elasticity of demand = (-1/m)(P/Q)
PED = (-1/-1)(50/50) = 1
b) Penny measurements
For equllibrium price and quantity
Qd = Qs
Qd = (10000-P)/100 = 100-0.01P
Qs = P/100 = 0.01P
(100- 0.01P)=0.01P
100=0.02P
P = 5000 cents
Q= 100-0.01P = 100-(0.01*5000)=50
Slope of inverse demand curve :
P = 10000-100Qd
Here slope as per y= mx+C
m = slope = -100
PED = (-1/m)(P/Q)
PED = (-1/-100)(5000/50) = 1
Slope is not same as Buck calculated as the value of price is measured in Buck case is dollar and in Penny case is per cents.
The PED is same in both the cases as the equllibrium price and quantity in both cases is same as 1 dollar = 100 cents
Which means 5000 cents = 50 dollars.

7. Suppose the inverse demand equation for rental apartments is P = 2000 – Q and the inverse supply equation for rental apartments is P=Q. Suppose there's a policy that restricts the price (monthly rental) to not exceed $1200. Which of the following statement is correct? A. The market equilibrium price will be $1200. B. There will be no excess demand or excess supply. C. There will be an excess demand of 400 units. D. There will be an excess...
A monopolist’s inverse demand is P=500-2Q, the total cost function is TC=50Q2 + 1000Q and Marginal cost is MC=100Q+100, where Q is thousands of units. a). what price would the monopolist charge to maximize profits and how many units will the monopolist sell? (hint, recall that the slope of the MARGINAL Revenue is twice as steep as the inverse demand curve. b). at the profit-maximizing price, how much profit would the monopolist earn? c). find consumer surplus and Producer surplus...
The equation for the inverse
demand curve is P = 4Qd + 40. The equation for the inverse supply
curve is P = 1/.15 x QS. Choke price for demand curve is $40.
Choke price for supply curve is $0. Consumer surplus before any
cigar tax $ 28.13 (because I rounded). Producer surplus before any
cigar tax $ 46.88 (because I rounded)
I need help with A, B and C, PLEASE!
Thank you!

Suppose the inverse market demand curve for widgets is given by p = 12 – 2Q, and the market is characterized by Stackelberg duopoly. Both firms have marginal costs of 2 and fixed costs of 0. What is the equilibrium price in the market? Your answer should be rounded to the first decimal place (e.g. 123.4).
The market inverse demand curve for a good is is P = 15 – 1.5Q, where P is the price in dollars. The marginal cost is $0.18. If the two firms in this industry successfully collude as a cartel, the market price will be $_ $4.94 $1.75 $3.62 $0.38 $7.59
