Consider a hypothetical market for the hepatitis A vaccine. The market demand (or private marginal benefit schedule) is given as: P = 80 -0.25Qd where Qd denotes the number of vaccinations demanded per month and P is the price per vaccination. The market supply for the vaccine (the private marginal cost schedule) is: P = 15 + 0.4Qs where Qs denotes the number of vaccinations supplied per month. a. Sketch a graph of the market and solve for the number...

Consider the market for a Hepatitis A vaccine. The market demand or private marginal benefit schedule is given by P = 80 – 0.25Qd, where Qd is the number of vaccines demanded per month and P is the price per vaccination. The market supply for the vaccine is (Private marginal cost schedule) is P = 15 + 0.4Qs, where Qs is the number of vaccines supplied per month. a. Draw a graph of the market and solve the number of...

Suppose a monopolist faces consumer demand given by P 400-5Q with a constant marginal cost of $20 per unit (where marginal cost equals average total cost. assume the firm has no fixed costs) If the monopoly can only charge a single price, then it will earn profits of S(Enter your response rounded as a whole number.) Correspondingly, consumer surplus is S However, if the firm were to practice price discrimination such that consumer surplus becomes profit, then, holding output constant...

5. Suppose the demand for flu shots can be described by the inverse function P=80-Q and the inverse supply curve is given as P=8+2Q. What is the market equilibrium price and quantity in this market? Suppose that flu shots generate consumption externalities such that the marginal social benefit is given by the equation MSB=80 - 12Q. What are the values of Price and Quantity that maximize social welfare/surplus? Is there over- or under consumption of flu shots? What is the...

Scenario: Suppose the demand schedule in a market can be represented by the equation Q -500-10P, where is the quantity demanded and P is the price. Also, suppose the supply schedule can be represented by the equation Q* - 200+ 10P, where is the quantity supplied. Refer to Scenario: What is the elasticity of demand at the equilibrium and which one is more elastic, supply or demand at the equilibrium)? O a elasticity of demand is 3/7 and both demand...
