1. For parts a, b and c refer to a good for which the supply and demand equations are given by: Qa = 250 - 15P Qs = 100 + 10P where Qd, Qs and P represent, respectively, the quantity demanded, the quantity supplied in units per week, and the good's price in £. Which of the following statements are true, false or uncertain? Fully explain your reasons by drawing a relevant diagram for each part: a) when P = £10 there is an excess demand of 100 units; b) when Q = 160 units per week the market is in equilibrium; c) if the government imposed a fixed tax of £5 per unit produced, the equilibrium quantity will increase while the equilibrium price will fall.

a. Graph the points of these supply and demand curves for orange juice. Be sure to put price on the vertical axis and quantity on the horizontal axis. b. Do these points seem to lie along two straight lines? If so, figure out the precise algebraic equation of these lines. (Hint: If the points do lie on straight lines, you need only consider two points on each of them to calculate the lines.) c. Use your solutions from part b to calculate the "excess demand" for orange juice if the market price is zero. d. Use your solutions from part b to calculate the "excess supply" of orange juice if the orange juice price is $6 per gallon.
How do i figure this one out?
Hello Please answer all except A and B) Thanks Mahboob
In the figure to the right, the current position of the demand curve for a good is D₁, and the price of the good, which is a normal good, is $4. If there is an increase in consumer incomes, which way will the demand curve shift? Will the quantity demanded of the good increase or decrease? 1.) Using the line drawing tool, draw the new demand curve for a normal good after consumer incomes increase. Label this line 'D₂.' 2.) Using the point drawing tool, indicate the point on the new demand curve, D₂, that corresponds to the quantity demanded when the price is $4 per good. Label this point 'A₂. Carefully follow the instructions above, and only draw the required objects. Price per Unit of the Good ($) 2A₁ D₁ 6 7 8 9 10 Quantity of the Good Demanded
Using the supply and demand functions below, derive the demand and supply curves if Y=$55,000 and pc=$13. What is the equilibrium price and quantity of coffee? Part 2 The demand function for coffee is Q=8.5−p+0.01Y, where Q is the quantity of coffee in millions of pounds per year, p is the price of coffee in dollars per pound, and Y is the average annual household income in high-income countries in thousands of dollars. The coffee supply function is Q=9.6+0.5p−0.2pc, where pc is the price of cocoa in dollars per pound. Part 3 The equilibrium price of coffee is p=$enter your response here per pound and the equilibrium quantity is Q=enter your response here millions of pounds per year. (Enter your responses rounded to two decimal places.)
Suppose that the market demand for Turkey is given by: Q_(T)=2-8P_(T)+2P_(C)+0.0015I Where Q_(T) is annual quantity demanded of turkey in million pounds, P_(T) is the price of turkey per pound, P_(C) is price of chicken per pound, and I is the average household income in dollars per year. a. Find the annual quantity demanded of turkey if the price turkey is $2.00 per pound, price of chicken is $1.50 per pound and the annual household income is $30,000.

"While the world's appetite for chocolate grows more voracious each year, cocoa farms around the globe are failing, under siege from fungal and viral diseases and insects... Researchers predict a shortfall in beans from the cacao tree, the raw material from which chocolate is made, in as little as five to ten years." 1) using the graph, describe the effect of such events on the demand and supply curves and also label the lines you drew properly. 2.) also identify the new point of equilibrium. label it properly.
3)What is the relationship between a demand schedule and a demand curve? * a)A demand schedule shows the various quantities of the good demanded, while a demand curve shows the various prices. b)A demand schedule is a numerical tabulation of the quantity demanded of a good at different prices, while a demand curve is a graphical representation of the law of demand. c)A demand curve shows the various quantities of the good demanded, while a demand schedule shows the various prices. d)A demand curve is a numerical tabulation of the quantity demanded of a good at different prices, while a demand schedule is a graphical representation of the law of demand.
