The equations represent the demand and supply for silver pendants. The government is considering imposing a $4 per unit tax of buyers of silver pendants. QD= 50,000-2,000P QS= -10,000+2,000P QD (with tax)= 50,000-2,000(P+T) 1. What is the before tax equilibrium price (P) and quantity (Q- in thousands) of pendants? a. P= $50; Q= 10 thousand b. P= $20; Q= 15 thousand c. P= $15; Q= 20 thousand d. P= $10; Q= 30 thousand. 2. Who carries the highest incidence of...

3. Suppose the market for widgets can be described by the following equations: Demand: P= 10 - Q Supply: P=Q-4 where P is the price in dollars per unit and Q is the quantity in thousands of units. a. What is the equilibrium price and quantity? (2 points) b. Suppose the government imposes a tax of $1 per unit to reduce widget consumption and raise government revenues. What will the new equilibrium quantity be? What price will the buyer pay?...
The following equations represent the inverse supply and demand functions in the market for Good A: PC = 80 - ½ QD PP = 14 + QS where PC and PP are the prices paid by consumers and received by producers respectively. QD and QS are the quantities demanded and supplied, respectively. Suppose the government is considering imposing a tax of $6 per unit of Good A. a) (2pts) Compute the competitive market equilibrium price and output without the tax....
Suppose that the demand for lawn fertilizer can be expressed as QD = 5000 - 120P and that the supply of lawn fertilizer can be expressed as QS = 1000 + 80P where Q is measured in tons per year and P is measured in dollars per ton. What is the effect of a government-imposed price ceiling of $20 per ton of fertilizer? A surplus of 2,000 tons. A shortage of 1,200 tons. A surplus of 1,200 tons. None of...
Consider the following equations: SUPPLY: Q=10+2P DEMAND: Q=60-3P b) If the government imposes a ceiling price (P max) of $8.50 per unit. Would it result in a shortage or a surplus or a surplus? Show in the graph.
The following equations represent the inverse supply and demand functions in the market for Good A: PC = 80 - ½ QD PP = 14 + QS where PC and PP are the prices paid by consumers and received by producers respectively. QD and QS are the quantities demanded and supplied, respectively. c) (2pts) Compute the competitive market equilibrium price and output with the tax. d) (4pts) Compute producer surplus and consumer surplus with the tax.e the government is considering...
