The following represents demand for widgets (a fictional product): QD = 700 – 100P + 0.05M – 30PR where P is the price of widgets, M is income, and PR is the price of a related (fictional) good, the wodget. Supply of widgets is determined by Qs= 900 + 57.5P Determine whether widgets are a normal or inferior good, and whether widgets and wodgets are substitutes or complements. Assume that M = $61,000 and PR = $250.00. Solve algebraically to...

The general demand and supply functions for good A are QD-2, 800-6P 0.5M-10PB Qs 40 4P - 8P1+6F where QD is the quantity demanded of good A, Qs is the quantity supplied of good A, P is the price of good A, M is the averaged income level of consumers, Pb is the price of a related good B, Pr is the price of an input, and F is the number of firms producing good A (a) Is good A...
Suppose that the demand and supply functions for good X are Qd = 56 – 2PX + 0.01M +7PR Qs = -600 + 10PX Where PX is the sales price of good X, M is average consumer income, PR is the price of a related good. Is good X a normal or inferior good? Are good X and R complements of substitutes? Explain? Suppose M = $50,000 and PR = $20 What is the direct demand function for good X?...
PLEASE SHOW YOUR WORKS, THANK YOU. Suppose that the supply and demand of wheat depend on the price of wheat (p), the amount of annual rainfall (r), and the level of disposable consumer income (). The equations describing the supply and demand curves are given by: Qs-20r+100p Qd-4000-100p 101 (a) Using the supply and demand equations for wheat, solve for the equilibrium price as a function of I and r. " (b) Using the supply and demand equations for wheat,...
The supply and demand for widgets are given by the following equations: QD = 500,000 – 20,000P QS = 30,000P where P = the price per widget and QD is the quantity of widgets demanded per year and QS is the quantity of widgets demanded per year. What is the equilibrium price and quantity of widgets? Suppose that a $1 per widget tax is levied on the sellers of widgets. What is the impact of this tax on the equilibrium...
1) A negative cross-elasticity of demand means that the goods in question are _____ while a negative income elasticity means that the good in question is a(n) _____. substitutes; normal good substitutes; inferior good complements; normal good complements; inferior good 2) Alex finds a new job as an economist at a factory that makes two types of chips: computer and potato. Alex calculates the cross elasticity of demand between computer and potato chips to be a very small negative number....
22. Consider two imaginary goods, widgets and gadgets. The cross-price elasticity of demand for widgets with respect to the price of gadgets is +0.5. This tells us that widgets and gadgets are a. Compliments b. Substitutes c. Unrelated in consumption For this condition to hold, 23. Assume that the market demand for widgets is perfectly inelastic. a. There must be no good substitute for widgets, and widgets must be a normal good. b. There must be no good substitute for...
If firms have to change their production techniques in order to change the quantities they supply, their response to a price change will be less in a period of a year as compared to what they can do in a month. True False When the cross-price elasticity of demand for two goods is a positive number, one can correctly conclude that: the goods are inferior goods. the goods are complements. the goods are substitutes. the goods are normal goods. total...
