Suppose the domestic supply and demand curves for bicycles in the United States are given by the following set of equations: QS = 2P QD = 200 – 2P. Demand and supply in the Rest of the World is given by the equations: QS = P QD =160 – P. Quantities are measured in thousands and price in U.S. dollars. After the opening of free trade between the U.S. and the Rest of the World: Group of answer choices One...

Suppose that the demand curve for wheat is: Qd=140−20p and the supply curve is: Qs=20p. The government imposes a price support at p that equals $4.00. What is the deadweight loss if the government supports the price by purchasing excess supply? (Assume the wheat will be destroyed.) The deadweight loss is $____? Suppose the government is considering supporting the price using a deficiency payment program. What would be the amount of the deficiency payment? The deficiency payment would be $____...
