- D(x) is the price, in dollars per unit, that consumers are willing to pay for x units of an item, and S(x) is the price, in dollars per unit, that producers are willing to accept for x units. Find (a) the equilibrium point, (b) the consumer surplus at the equilibrium point, and (c) the producer surplus at the equilibrium point. D(x)=(x−9)^2, S(x)=x^2+6x+57A friend of yours is considering two cell phone service providers. Provider A charges $120 per month for the service regardless of the number of phone calls made. Provider B does not have a fixed service fee but instead charges $1 per minute for calls. Your friend's monthly demand for minutes of calling is given by the equation Qp = 150 - 50P, where P is the price of a minute. With Provider A, the cost of an extra minute is With Provider B, the cost of an extra minute is S Given your friend's demand for minutes and the cost of an extra minute with each provider, if your friend used Provider A, he would talk for minutes, and if he used Provider B, he would talk for minutes. This means your friend would pay S for service with Provider A and S for service with Provider B. Use the following graph to draw your friend's demand curve for minutes. Then use the green triangle to help you answer the questions that follow. Note: Yo U will not be graded on an. changeS Vou mako to tha 喜GThe market for soccer balls is composed by 4 firms. Consider the following information on the quatity supplied at different prices: When the price for a ball is $25, the supply of firm 1 is 5, the supply of firm 2 is 2, the supply of firm 3 is 3, and the supply of firm 4 is 0. When the price for a ball is $50, the supply of firm 1 is 7, the supply of firm 2 is 5, the supply of firm 3 is 5, and the supply of firm 4 is 3. When the price for a ball is $75, the supply of firm 1 is 9, the supply of firm 2 is 8, the supply of firm 3 is 7, and the supply of firm 4 is 6. When the price for a ball is $100, the supply of firm 1 is 11, the supply of firm 2 is 11, the supply of firm 3 is 10, and the supply of firm 4 is 9. When the price is $50, the market supply of soccer balls is: a. 20 b. 10 c. 30 d. 41
- In the market for hand sanitizers the demand function is given by: q = 80 - p, where q is the quantity of hand sanitizers (in thousands) and p is the price of hand sanitizers in dollars. Suppose the current market price for hand sanitizers is $4. 1. What is the inverse demand function equal to? Draw it in a diagram. 2. At a price of $4, what is the level of consumer surplus? 3. Due to the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic, people's preferences for sanitizing their hands change in favor of hand sanitizers. In fact, for any given price of hand sanitizers, people now want to purchase 20 units (in thousands) more hand sanitizers. o What is the new demand curve? o What is the new inverse demand curve? o Draw the new inverse demand curve in your diagram. 4. Suppose that after the increase in demand, the new price becomes $8. What is consumer surplus equal to at this new price (and with the new inverse demand curve)? 5. [Challenge Question] What would the consumer surplus be if the government…Which of the following would lead to the creation of some consumer surplus? Sam refuses to pay $10 for a haircut because it is only worth $8 to him. Fred buys a car for $4000, the maximum amount that he is willing to pay. Danette pays $30 a month for phone service, but it is worth $70 a month to her. When Florence purchases a candy bar for 50 cents, she uses a $20 bill to pay for it.Suppose Rajiv is the only seller in the market for bottled water and Kevin is the only buyer. The following lists show the value Kevin places on a bottle of water and the cost Rajiv incurs to produce each bottle of water: Kevin's Value Value of first bottle: $10 Value of second bottle: $7 Value of third bottle: $3 Value of fourth bottle: $1 The following table shows their respective supply and demand schedules: Price $1 or less $1 to $3 $3 to $7 $7 to $10 More than $10 Quantity Demanded Quantity Supplied 4 3 2 1 0 0 1 2 3 Cost of first bottle: $1 Cost of second bottle: $3 Cost of third bottle: $7 Cost of fourth bottle: $10 4 Rajiv's Costs Use Rajiv's supply schedule and Kevin's demand schedule to find the quantity supplied and quantity demanded at prices of $2, $6, and $9. Enter these values in the following table.
- Consumer surplus is a measure of the difference between: a) The price which a consumer has to pay and the cost of producing the good (in a diagram, the area between the market price, and the supply curve). b) The consumer’s willingness to pay, and the cost of production (the area between the demand curve and the supply curve). c) The value which a consumer places on a unit of the good, and the market price (the area between the demand curve and the market price line). d) The marginal revenue from sales and the marginal cost of sales (the area between the marginal revenue and the marginal cost curves).Each rectangle on the graph corresponds to a particular seller in this market: blue (circe symbols) for Andrew, green (triangle symbols) for Beth, purple (diamond symbols) for Darnell, tan (dash symbols) for Eleanor, and orange (square symbols) for Jacques.

- 14. Over the past few year’s consumer tastes and the number of buyers in the market for a game called ‘pickle ball’ have increased dramatically. Thus, the demand for tickets to pickle ball events has increased. Before this all started the equilibrium price of a ticket to a pickle ball event was negative. This means that: A few years ago, there would have been a surplus of tickets even at a price of zero, now the invisible hand has pushed prices to greater than zero. A few years ago, the quantity of tickets demanded was less than quantity supplied. Pickle ball event tickets resembled the market for recyclable cardboard a few years ago Greater demand for pickle ball tournament tickets will lead to a greater demand – and higher pay – for professional pickle ball players. All of the above. B and D onlyA consumer is willing to pay $4 for a bag of pretzels, but the price is $1. The consumer surplus in this case isYou’d be willing to pay $200 for a daylong admission ticket to a theme park. The cost of the ticket is $120. Your consumer surplus is:
