Answer is : deadweight loss is given by triangle on right of market equilibrium between outputs 5000 and 6000.
Because this quantity is neither prpduced nor consumed as market prices remain same which causes deadweight loss.

2. EXERCISE 8.4 SURPLUS AND DEADWEIGHT LOSs 1. Sketch a diagram to illustrate the competitive market for bread, showing the equilibrium where 5,000 loaves are sold at a price of 2.00. 2. Suppose that the bakeries get together to form a cartel. They agree to raise the price to 2.70, and jointly cut production to supply the number of loaves that consumers demand at that price. Shade the areas on your diagram to show the consumer surplus, producer surplus, and...
