Suppose you are presented with the estimates of the supply and demand curves for a market. They are Qs=80+5*P and Qd=1080−5*P.
a) Solve for the equilibrium price.
b) Solve for the equilibrium quantity

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...

Consider a market for wheat. Suppose the supply and demand curves are linear, namely Supply: Qs = 120 + 240P Demand: Qd = 300 - 120P a) (5%) What is the equilibrium price and quantity? b) (5%) What is the price elasticity of demand at the equilibrium? What is the price elasticity of supply at the equilibrium? For part c and d below, suppose that a drought changed the supply curve and the new equilibrium price is $1.00 per bushel....
1. The market for a product is defined by the following demand and supply curves: &nbs
1. The market for a product is defined by the following demand and supply curves: Qd=20-7p Qs=-4+5P where Qd and Qs are the quantities demanded and supplied, and P is the price of the product in £s. (i) Draw (accurately) a diagram to depict the market for this product and determine the equilibrium price and quantity. (ii) Solve for the equilibrium market price and quantity mathematically (remember that, in equilibrium, Qd=Qs).

Consider a perfectly competitive market for a good with the following supply and demand curves: Qd= 400–P and Qs= 80 + 4P a. Calculate the change in equilibrium quantity, and the size of the deadweight loss that will result if a unit tax of $10 is imposedon consumers of this good. Draw a graph that illustrates how you arrived at your answer. b. Suppose the demand curve changes to: Qd’= 376-0.6P First, verify that the pre-tax equilibrium is approximately the...
