3. Consumer surplus for a group of consumers The following graph plots the demand curve (blue line) for several consumers in the market for motor scooters in Meade, a small town located in Kansas. The Meade market price of a motor scooter is given by the horizontal black line at $80. Each rectangle you can place on the following graph corresponds to a particular buyer in this market: orange (square symbols) for Dmitri, green (triangle symbols) for Frances, purple (diamond symbols) for Jake, tan (dash symbols) for Latasha, and blue (circle symbols) for Nick. Use the rectangles to shade the areas representing consumer surplus for each person who is willing and able to purchase a motor scooter at a market price of $80. (Note: If a person will not purchase a motor scooter at the market price, indicate this by leaving his or her rectangle in its original position on the palette.)

Answer on question 2 part 4.
The formula consumer surplus uses a consumers "willingness to pay" as part of the equation. Economists uses "willingness to pay" as a stand in for the numerical value of the benefit a consumer receives from purchasing something. If a consumer's "willingness to pay" for a sandwich is $10, what does that mean? Why do economists say that the benefit of that sandwich (to that consumer) is $10?
Qustion 15: Suppose that we are considering the market for a good that is a Giffen Good. We are thinking about a world of Supply and Demand. Very importantly, the demand curve is more inelastic than the supply curve. Suppose that the price of capital increases, and production of the good gets more expensive. What would we expect to happen to the market price and quantity (p* and Q*)? [Hint: this is a supply and demand question, not a question about the cost curves. I would suggest drawing it out.] A. Price will increase. Quantity will increase. B. Price will increase. Quantity will decrease. C. Price will decrease. Quantity will increase. D. Price will decrease. Quantity will decrease.
