Homework Answers
1. The deadweight loss due to price ceiling is represented by the area ACD.
2. A price floor of P1 causes a surplus of equal to AB.
3. A price ceiling below the equilibrium price then
The suppliers are worse off as the market price is less than equilibrium or market clearing price.
The buyers are better off as the prices has declined so they are better off.
C. Both A and B are true.

Conceptual Questions A. For the questions below, answer either true or false. If you answer true, explain why it is true. If you answer false, give a counter-example. In all three examples you may assume demand slopes downward and supply slopes upward (that is, neither curve is either perfectly vertical or horizontal), and that both curves are smooth (like they are in the rent control questions, not discrete like they were in homework 2). • In the simple model of...

One of the following would not to lead to a deadweight loss. Which one? a. A tax imposed on sellers when demand is downward sloping and supply is perfectly elastic b. A price ceiling that is set below the equilibrium price c. A subsidy paid to sellers when both demand and supply are elastic, but not infinite d. A tax imposed on sellers when demand is perfectly inelastic e. All the above will result to a deadweight loss

The government of Venezuela imposed price ceilings on a wide variety of consumer goods from 2007 to at least 2015 (the time of writing) The markets for flour, sugar, and cooking oil were subject to strong price controls that required they be sold below the market price. As a result of these price ceilings, in 2015 the government required that producers provide between 30 and 100 percent of their output to the government. Use the graph to the right to...

1. Use the following supply and demand equations. Supply: p = 4 + 3q. Demand: p=2,132-9. Use these equations to respond to the following questions. (a) What is the market equilibrium? (4%) (b) Under the market equilibrium, what is Total Surplus? (4%) (c) Suppose the government enacts a price ceiling of p= 2, 000. What is Producer Surplus, Consumer Surplus, Total Surplus, and Deadweight Loss? (4%) (d) Instead, suppose that the government enacts a price ceiling of p = 1,100....
