7. Which of the following statements is (are) correct? (x) If the coefficient of price elasticity of demand has a value of 1, then the absolute value of the percentage change in price equals the absolute value of the percentage change in quantity demanded. (y) The coefficient of price elasticity of demand for a vertical demand curve equals zero because the quantity demanded does not change as the price changes. (z) The midpoint method is used to compute elasticity because it gives the same answer regardless of the direction of change A. (x), (y) and (z) В. (x) and (y) only C (x) and (z) only D (y) and (z) only E. (z) only
ADVANCED ANALYSIS Assume that demand for a commodity is represented by the equation P = 100-3Qd- Supply is represented by the equation P= -10 + 3Q,, where Qd and Qs are quantity demanded and quantity supplied, respectively, and Pis price. Instructions: Round your answer for price to 2 decimal places and enter your answer for quantity as a whole number. Using the equilibrium condition Qs Qd solve the equations to determine equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity. Equilibrium price = $ 50 Equilibrium quantity = 20 units
"A reduction in gasoline prices caused the demand for gasoline to increase. The lower gas prices also led to an increase in demand for large cars, causing their prices to rise." These statements a.contain one error; the lower gasoline prices would cause an increase in the quantity demanded of gasoline, not an increase in demand. b.contain one error; the lower gasoline prices would increase the quantity demanded of large cars, not the demand. c.are essentially correct. d.contain two errors; the lower gasoline prices would cause the quantity of gasoline demanded (rather than the demand) to increase, and the lower gasoline price would cause an increase in quantity demanded (rather than the demand) for large cars.

13. Suppose over the next several years the level of income and wealth rises in the state of Florida. For the housing market this would mean: An increase in the quantity of houses demanded, rising prices and an increase in supply. An increase in the demand for houses, rising prices and an increase in quantity supplied. An increase in the quantity of houses demanded shortages and higher prices. A decrease in the quantity of houses supplied as demand increases. Price gouging in this market would be rampant.
ADVANCED ANALYSIS Assume that demand for a commodity is represented by the equation P=80−2Qd.P=80−2Qd. Supply is represented by the equation P=−20+2Qs,P=−20+2Qs, where Qd and Qs are quantity demanded and quantity supplied, respectively, and P is price.Instructions: Round your answer for price to 2 decimal places and enter your answer for quantity as a whole number. Using the equilibrium condition Qs = Qd, solve the equations to determine equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity.

4. Which of the following statements is (are) correct? (x) When quantity supplied responds very little to changes in price, supply is said to be inelastic. (y) If the quantity supplied changes substantially when the price of the good changes a small amount, then the coefficient of price elasticity of supply is a number larger than one and supply is elastic. (z) Holding all else constant, if a paper manufacturer increases production by 12 percent when the market price of paper increases by 15 percent, then the price elasticity of supply must be inelastic since the coefficient of price elasticity of supply is equal to 0.80.
