The following graph shows Raphael's weekly demand for apple pie, represented by the blue line. Point A represents a point along his weekly demand curve. The market price of apple pie is $3.00 per slice, as shown by the horizontal black line.

Because he has to pay only $3.00 per slice, the consumer surplus he gains from the 8th slice of apple pie is S Suppose the price of apple pie were to fall to $2.25 per slice. At this lower price, Raphael would receive a consumer surplus of 5 from the 8th slice of apple pie he buys. The following graph shows the weekly market demand for apple pie in a small economy. Use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing consumer surplus when the price (P) of apple pie is $3.00 per slice.…
The following graph plots the demand curve (blue line) for several consumers in the market for VR headsets in Mead, a small town located in Colorado. The Mead market price of a VR headset is given by the horizontal black line at $180. Each rectangle you can place on the following graph corresponds to a particular buyer in this market: orange (square symbols) for Jacques, green (triangle symbols) for Kyoko, purple (diamond symbols) for Musashi, tan (dash symbols) for Rina, and blue (circle symbols) for Sean. Use the rectangles to shade the areas representing consumer surplus for each person who is willing and able to purchase a VR headset at a market price of $180. (Note: If a person will not purchase a VR headset at the market price, indicate this by leaving his or her rectangle in its original position on the palette.)

Question 4 (Figure: Demand for Tuna Sandwiches) The graph shows Beatriz's weekly demand for tuna sandwiches. Tuna Sandwiches Price per sandwich $165 $12 $8 $4 0 Beatriz's individual demand curve Quantity of sandwiches (per week) If she orders three tuna sandwiches per week, what can we infer? The price of a tuna sandwich is no higher than $4. Beatriz's demand for tuna has shifted. O For Beatriz, tuna sandwiches are a normal good. O For Beatriz, tuna sandwiches are an inferior good.
8. Shifts in supply or demand I The following graph plots the market for electric guitars in Chicago, where there are always over 1,000 music stores. Suppose the price of acoustic guitars decreases. (Assume that people regard electric guitars and acoustic guitars as substitutes.) Show the effect of this change on the market for electric guitars by shifting one or both of the curves on the following graph, holding all else constant. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther. PRICE (Dollars per guitar) QUANTITY (Guitars) Supply Demand Demand Supply ? Now suppose Congress passes a new tax that decreases the income of Chicago reside If electric guitars are a normal good, this will cause the demand for electric guitars to decrease increase
The following graph shows Hilary's weekly demand for cheesecake, represented by the blue line. Point A represents a point along her weekly demand curve. The market price of cheesecake is $3.00 per slice, as shown by the horizontal black line From the previous graph, you can tell that Hilary is willing to pay $_______ for her 8th slice of cheesecake each week. Because she has to pay only$3.00 per slice, the consumer surplus she gains from the 8th slice of cheesecake is $_______. Suppose the price of cheesecake were to fall to $2.25 per slice. At this lower price, Hilary would receive a consumer surplus of $_______.from the 8th slice of cheesecake she buys.The following graph shows the weekly market demand for cheesecake in a small economy. Use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing consumer surplus when the price (P) of cheesecake is $3.00 per slice. Then, use the green point (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing additional consumer surplus when the…
According to an article in the Wall Street Journal, in early 2017, President Donald Trump was considering whether to reverse a requirement by the Environmental Protection Agency that oil refiners increase the amount of ethanol they blend with gasoline. If the requirement were to remain, the result would be an increase in demand for ethanol, which is made from corn. Many U.S. farmers can use the same acreage to grow either corn or soybeans. Use TWO SEPARATE demand and supply graphs to analyze the effect on the equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity of CORN and Soybeans resulting from an increase in demand for ethanol Note:- Do not provide handwritten solution. Maintain accuracy and quality in your answer. Take care of plagiarism. Answer completely. You will get up vote for sure.

Ariya likes to play golf. The number of times per year that she plays depends on both the price of playing a round of golf as well as Ariya's income and the cost of other types of entertainment-in particular, how much it costs to go see a movie instead of playing golf. The three demand schedules in the table below show how many rounds of golf per year Ariya will demand at each price under three different scenarios. In scenario D1, Ariya's income is $80,0o00 per year and movies cost $15 each. In scenario D2, Ariya's income is also $80,000 per year, but the price of seeing a movie rises to $17. And in scenario D3, Ariya's income goes up to $100,000 per year, while movies cost $17. Scenario D1 D2 D3 Income per year $80,000 $80.000 $100,000 Price of movie ticket $15 $17 $17 Price of Golf Quantity Demanded $55 15 10 15 $40 25 15 30 $25 40 20 50 Instructions: Round your answers to two decimal places.

8.4 (0) Maude spends all of her income on delphiniums and hollyhocks. She thinks that delphiniums and hollyhocks are perfect substitutes; one delphinium is just as good as one hollyhock. Delphiniums cost $4 a unit and hollyhocks cost $5 a unit. (a) If the price of delphiniums decreases to $3 a unit, will Maude buy more of them? due to the income effect and what part is due to the substitution effect? What part of the change in consumption is (b) If the prices of delphiniums and hollyhocks are respectively Pa = 84 and P, = $5 and if Maude has $120 to spend, draw her budget line in blue ink.
