Suppose Good Y has a straight-line demand curve that cuts the price-axis at $600 and the quantity-axis at 180,000 units, and the supply curve has the equation of QSX = 1000P – 60,000.
-
(a) Find the demand function. (Need to show steps)
-
(b) What will be the equilibrium price and quantity for this market?
-
(c) What is the elasticity of demand at the equilibrium point?
-
(d) Based on the answer to (c), comment on whether the equilibrium point is profit-maximizing for the industry as a whole.
