39. A market is in equilibrium when the quantity of demand is equal to quantity supplied. At a price of $5 the market demand is equal to market supply. The equilibrium quantity is 400 and equilibrium price is $5. The point of intersection between the market demand curve and the market supply curve determines the equilibrium quantity and equilibrium price.
Total surplus is the total of surplus earned by the consumers and the producers at the equilibrium. Consumer’s surplus is the difference between the price the consumers are willing to pay and the price paid by the consumers in order to purchase the commodity. At equilibrium the consumers can purchase the commodity at $5, but they are willing to pay $12. Thus the total area of the consumer surplus is the area below the demand curve and above the price line. The value of this area is $1400(base × height/2, base is 400, height is $7(12-5).
Producer surplus is the difference between the price at which the producers are willing to supply and the price actually received by them. At the equilibrium price of $5, the producers are willing to supply at $2 but they receive a price equal to $5. Thus the total surplus gained by the producers is the area below the price line and above the supply curve which is equal to $600(base × height/2).
At the equilibrium the total surplus generated is equal to $1400+$600= $2000.

EXERCISE 4 EQUILIBRIUM The demand curve for a product is given by Qo=400-20P and the supply curve for a product is given by Qs=16P-32 a) illustrate the demand curve and the supply curve on the same graph b) find the equilibrium price and quantity c) find numerical values for the consumer surplus and the producer surplus e) Identify the total willingness to pay for the equilibrium quantity f) identify the total cost of supplying the equilibrium quantity g) draw a...
This problem involves solving demand and supply equations to determine equilibrium Price and Quantity and then illustrating them graphically.Consider a demand curve of the form : QD= -3P + 45 where QD is the quantity demanded and P is the price of the good.The supply curve for the same good is: QS= P-5 where QS is the quantity supplied at price, P. Solve for equilibrium Price (P*) and Quantity (Q*). Please set up the problem and underline your answers below....

Suppose that demand for and supply of a commodity in a market are shown on a graph with price on the vertical axis and quantity on the horizontal axis. The y-intercept of the demand curve is equal to $30. The equilibrium price and quantity are $24.3 and 147 units respectively. Total Consumer Surplus in this market is ____. Hint: Write your answer to two decimal places.
