Imposition of price floor of $5 which is binding (in the sense that it is more than the equilibrium price) will lead to excess supply of quantity of bushels of corn per month. This is due to the fact that at $5, farmers are willing to sell 500 units but the demand is only 300 units. Thus, there is excess supply of 200 units at this price floor.
This leads to a deadweight loss equal to (1/2) * (5-3) * (400 - 300) = 100. This is the area of triangle (300,3), (400,4) (300,5)

Consider the market for luxury yachts depicted on the following graph. Determine the equilibrium price and quantity of luxury yachts in the absence of a tax. Using the green triangle (triangle symbols), shade the area representing total consumer surplus (CS) at the equilibrium price. Next, use the purple triangle (diamond symbols) to shade the area on the following graph representing total producer surplus (PS) at the equilibrium price. PRICE (Thousands of dollars per yacht! Supply 0 10 20 Demand 30...
Suppose Sudan is a "small country" In the world market for corn. The following graph shows the demand and supply curves for the domestic market for com. The world price is $125 per ton of corn. Throughout the question, assume that changes in trade polkdles in other countries do not significantly affect the world market for corn and that there are no transportation or transaction costs assoclated with international trade in corn. Also assume that domestic suppliers will satisty domestic...

Consider the market for commercial fans. The following graph
shows the demand and supply for commercial fans before the
government imposes any taxes.
First, use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the
equilibrium price and quantity of commercial fans in the absence of
a tax. Then use the green point (triangle symbol) to shade the area
representing total consumer surplus (CS) at the equilibrium price.
Next, use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the...
