Qd - 500 - 4p: Demand Curve Equation .100+2p:Supply Curve Equation In equilibrium Q& In equilibriump-p Question 2.1) Compute equilibrium price (p*) and equilibrium quantity (Q*) quantitatively Question 2.2) Draw the demand and supply curves on a graph (Graph 1) with q on horizontal and p on vertical axis & show the equilibrium price and quantity. Make sure you label the axes and point out the horizontal and vertical intercepts of the demand curve. Question 2.3) Find Qd and Q...
A market demand and supply functions are as follows: Qd = 500 - P/4, and Qs = P/2 - 100. For parts 2-5, use ONE graph. 1. Determine the equilibrium price and quantity. 2. Graph the inverse demand and supply curves with Q on the horizontal axis and P on the vertical axis. Clearly label all axes, curves, intercepts, and the equilibrium price and quantity values 3.Assume the government sets a rule that the selling price cannot go above $400....
1 Suppose the demand for shoes is given by: QD= 210 -2P. The supply of shoes is given by: QS= 9P -120. Calculate the Gains from Trade (also known as Economic Surplus) that would exist in this market in a competitive equilibrium. 2 Suppose the demand for jackets was given by: QD= 140 -0.4P. The supply of jackets is given by: QS= 4P -80. Suppose the price was $49 per jacket. Calculate whether there is a surplus or shortage of...
The demand curve for a good is QD=24–4P, and its supply curve is QS=P+1. The market is in equilibrium, then the government provides a subsidy to producers of the good. The subsidy is represented as a new supply curve of QS=P+3. What is the dollar amount of the producer subsidy per unit
Deadweight Loss Given the following information: Qs = 2P P = Qs/2 QD= 180 - 4P P = (QD -180)/-4 AR = P = 45-.25Q TR = 45 - .25Q2 Hint: MC – supply curve MR = 45 - 5Q Qs = supply Qd = demand Using the above information, Graph and calculate the price-output solution under competitive market assumptions. How much is the consumer surplus producer surplus and total surplus? Calculate the price and the...
Suppose that the demand curve and supply functions are qD = 300−5p and qS = 100+20p, respectively. (a) On the same graph, draw the demand and supply curves with price on the vertical axis. (b) What is the quantity and price in the equilibrium? (c) Calculate consumer surplus and producer surplus. (d) Suppose the government implements a $5 dollar per unit sales tax. i. Calculate the new quantity and the price paid by the consumer. ii. Calculate the consumer surplus,...
Assume: Demand Curve: QD = 80 – 10P; and Supply Curve: QS = 10P 7. Given the information derived above, identify on the graph consumer surplus and producer surplus for each situation as well as deadweight loss, if any. b. Government imposes a minimum price of $6.00 Calculate and assess (describe the impact) of the following: 1. Consumer Surplus 2. Producer Surplus 3. Deadweight Loss 4. Total Surplus 5. Government Revenue 6. Is the market operating efficiently: Yes or No....
Q. Given the following supply and demand functions, calculate consumer surplus. P = 600 − Qd P = 300 + 2QS Q. Consider the market for jet fuel in a remote regional airport. The domestic demand and supply curves are given as (Qs are gallons in thousands): P = 55 − 3QD P = 5 + 7 QS a) What is the market equilibrium price and quantity? b) If the government imposes a price ceiling of $28, what will be...
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...
Question 6A Given the following information: Demand: Qd = 200 – 5P Supply: Qs = 5P If a quantity tax of $2 per unit sold is imposed, (a) Considering that the government will earn revenue, overall, do you think that society benefits from such a move Yes or no and why? Explain also effect on Buyer Price? Effect on Seller Price? Effects on Quantity traded? Question 6b Given the following information: Demand: Qd = 200 – 5P Supply: Qs =...
