Q=100,000-10,000P solve for the consumer surplus at the equilibrium price and quantity Demand: Let the Market...
6. Demand, Supply, consumer surplus and Market Equilibrium. The following relations describe monthly demand and supply conditions in the metropolitan area for recyclable aluminum QD = 317,500 - 10,000P (Demand) Qs = -2,500 + 10,000P (Supply) where Q is quantity measured in pounds of scrap aluminum and P is price in dollars. Complete the following table: A Calculate the market equilibrium price and output? B. What is the inverse demand curve P = f(QD)? C. Compute the consumer surplus at...
6) Price Ceiling: Assume that the government creates price controls for soybeans in order to help the poor. Assume that these price controls take the form of a price ceiling in which the government prohibits the price of soybeans from rising above $5.00 per kilogram. Draw a diagram. What will be the quantity of soybeans supplied? What will be the quantity of soybeans demanded? What will be the result of this price ceiling? In what quantity?

5. Consumer surplus, producer surplus, and deadweight loss with quantity restrictions The following graph shows the supply of (orange curve) and demand for (blue curve) DVD players. Determine the equilibrium price and quantity of DVD players. Based on this, use the green triangle (triangle symbols) to shade the area representing consumer surplus at the equilibrium price. Then, use the purple triangle (diamond symbols) to shade the area representing producer surplus at the equilibrium price. 200 180 Demand Consumer Surplus Producer...
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....
The following supply and demand functions describe the competitive market Q2+4P Q40-2P where Q and Q" are the quantities supplied and demanded, and P is the market price. (a) What are the equilibrium price, P, and quantity, Q"? (b) Compute the producer and consumer surplus that results from the market equilibrium in (a). Hint: To solve this problem, try drawing a graph of this market. Then recall the definitions from class: CS is the area under the demand curve and...
1. Consumer Surplus a. The inverse demand curve facing a firm is p = a – bQ. Ifp = - determine the consumer surplus. This will be a general equation. b. This general equation may seem abstract. Recall that in general, consumer surplus is the area under the demand curve and above the price. Let a = 100, p = - = 50, and Q = 100. Solve for consumer surplus using the basic 12(Base*Height) formula. Then solve using the...
Suppose that the demand curve for sorghum is Q = 120 - 69and the supply curve is Q=15p. The government imposes a price ceiling of P_{c} = 3a. What effect does this have on the equilibrium quantity, consumer surplus, producer surplus. and deadweight loss?b. Who wins and who loss
Consumer & Producer Surplus If QP = 450 - P and Q* = 2P - 150: a. Solve for the market equilibrium price (P) and market equilibrium quantity (Q*). (4 points) b. Solve for consumer surplus, producer surplus and total surplus. (4 points) 2. Welfare Effects of a Per Unit Tax Given the same demand and supply equations as in question #1, suppose the government imposes a per unit tax of $15: 22 a. Solve for the new equilibrium quantity...
Consider the Colombian market for soybeans. The following graph shows the domestic demand and domestic supply curves for soybeans in Colombia. Suppose Colombia's government currently does not allow international trade in soybeans. Use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price of a ton of soybeans and the equilibrium quantity of soybeans in Colombia in the absence of international trade. Then, use the green triangle (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing consumer surplus in equilibrium. Finally, use...
