The inverse demand and supply curves for wheat are given by: P= 11-Q^d and P=1 + Q^s, where P is the price of wheat in dollars per bushel (USD/bu) and Q is the quantity of wheat in million bushels (mil bu), The price support set by the government is equal to $8/bu.
Calculate the changes in producer and consumer surplus for the price support policy. Who is made better off, who worse off, and by how much?
Homework Answers
Consumers loose when price support is set by the government while producers gain as price support is above equilibrium price level.

The wheat market is perfectly competitive, and the market supply and demand curves are given by the following equations:
The wheat market is perfectly competitive, and the market supply and demand curves are given by the following equations: QD = 20,000,000 - 4,000,000P QS = 7,000,000 + 2,500,000P, where QD and QS are quantity demanded and quantity supplied measured in bushels, and P = price per bushel. a. Determine consumer surplus at the equilibrium price and quantity. b. Assume that the government has imposed a price floor at $2.25 per bushel and agrees to buy any resulting excess supply. How many bushels of wheat...
