Consider the market for corn. Suppose the market demand and supply curves are as given. Demand: P = 270-3QD; Supply P = 30 + QS. Price is the price per metric ton (in cents). 1) Calculate the equilibrium price (P) and quantity (Q). 2) If the government impose a price floor of 100 cents per metric ton on corn, calculate the quantity demanded, quantity supplies and the surplus/ shortage at this price.
Total economic surplus. The following diagram shows supply and demand in the market for smart phones. Use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price and quantity of smart phones. Then use the green point (triangle symbol) to fill the area representing consumer surplus, and use the purple point (diamond symbol) to fill the area representing producer surplus. Total surplus in this market is ($ )million. 150 135 Demand Equilibrium 120 105 5 90 2 75 Consumer Surplus...
Question 1 The domestic demand function for Phone X is P = 800 - 2Q and the domestic supply for Phone X is P = 200 + 1Qs . Assuming a competitive market for Phone X: (a) Calculate the equilibrium quantity (Q*) for Phone X (show ALL calculations clearly). (b) Calculate the equilibrium price (P') for Phone X (show ALL calculations clearly). (c) At what price will the domestic quantity demanded be equal to zero (i.e., the price at which...
1. Suppose that the initial demand and supply curves for coffee are illustrate by D' and St in the graph below. Assume that coffee and kringle are complements in consumption. Clearly label all additions to the graph. a) Suppose that the initial market price of coffee, Po, is $1 per cup (Po = $1). Determine and illustrate the quantity demanded at Po (labeled as Qc), and the quantity supplied at Po (labeled as Qoʻ). Show Qoand Qos on the quantity...
The demand for a monthly cell phone plans is given by QD = 50 – 0.5 P and the supply of cell phone plans is given by QS = - 25 + P. The quantity is measured in thousands of cell phone plans and the price is in dollars. a. Solve for the equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity of cell phone plans sold in this market. (4) b. Assume that the market price is $ 45 per plan. Would you...
Suppose we have the following market supply and demand schedules for bicycles: 1.1. Plot the supply curve and the demand curve for bicycles. 1.2. What is the equilibrium price of bicycles? 1.3. What is the equilibrium quantity of bicycles? 1.4. If the price of bicycles were $100. Is there a surplus or a shortage? How many units of surplus or shortage are there? Will this cause the price to rise or fall? 1.5. Ifthepriceofbicycleswere$400, is there a surplus or a...
E) Solve the mathematical problems below: 1. The demand and supply curves for hotdogs in California are given by the following two equations QD = 8,000 - 800P QS = 2,000 + 200P Where QD represents quantity demanded, QS represents quantity supplied and P represents price. a. Find the equilibrium quantity and price: b. If students suddenly acquire a greater taste for hotdogs, which of the following would be the new demand curve? Circle the correct equation: QD = 6,500...
4. Suppose the market for grass seed can be expressed as: Demand: Qd = 200 - 5P Supply: Qs = 40 + 5P If the government collects a $5 specific tax from sellers (here you can change the supply equation to Qs = 40 + 5(P-t) or Qs = 15+ 5P, How much will the quantity demanded change from the amount demanded before the tax? What price will consumers pay after the tax? What price will sellers receive after the...
