3. Kim is in the market for a new automobile, and since she was just promoted at work, her tastes in higher-end automobiles has increased, but to her surprise taxes have decreased, which make a new automobile more attractive; therefore, please illustrate by constructing a supply and demand graph, the direction in which the curves will shift and state the new equilibrium price and quantity; for example, state whether price and quantity increased, decreased, or are indeterminate. Please explain your rationale based on the determinants of demand and supply.

Suppose that Felix and Janet represent the only two consumers of laundry detergent in some hypothetical market. The following table presents their annual demand schedules for laundry detergent: Price (Dollars per bottle) 2 4 PRICE (Dollars per bottle) 12 10 On the following graph, plot Felix's demand for laundry detergent using the green points (triangle symbol). Next, plot Janet's demand for laundry detergent using the purple points (diamond symbol). Finally, plot the market demand for laundry detergent using the blue points (circle symbol). 2 6 Note: Line segments will automatically connect the points.

This problem involves solving demand and supply equations together to determine price and quantity. a. Consider a demand curve of the form QD=-2P+20, where QD is the quantity demanded of a good and P is the price of the good. Graph this demand curve. Also draw a graph of the supply curve Qs =2P-4, where Qs is the quantity supplied. Be sure to put P on the vertical axis and Q on the horizontal axis. Assume that all the Qs and Ps are nonnegative for parts a, b, and c. At what values of P and Q do these curves intersect-that is, where does QD = Qs ? b. Now, suppose at each price that individuals demand four more units of output-that the demand curve shifts to QD - 2P+24. Graph this new demand curve. At what values of P and Q does the new demand curve intersect the old supply curve-that is, where does QD = Qs ? c. Now finally, suppose the supply curve shifts to Q's=2P-8. Graph this new supply curve. At what values of P and Q does QD=Q's? Show all working calculations and label garph with…

Suppose that in 2007 Ford sold 500,000 Mustangs at an average price of $18,800 per car; in 2008, 600,000 Mustangs were sold at an average price of $19,500 per car. From these statements what changes in supply or demand on the market for Mustangs produced such changes in equilibrium? (One graph. Start by plotting two points (price versus quantity, shift either supply or demand, not both) and then draw supply and demand graphs through them in a way that explains the change in the equilibrium from 2007 to 2008.

Consider the market for pens. Suppose that new medical concerns regarding graphite absorption have put pressure on schools to reduce pencil use in favor of pens. Further, the price of plastic, a major input in the pen production process, has dropped sharply. On the following graph, labeled Scenario 1, indicate the effect these two events have on the demand for and supply of pens. 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.

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.)
