Home has 12,000 units of labor available. It can produce two goods, apples and bananas. The unit labor requirement in apple production is 100, while in banana production is 75. There is now also another country, Foreign, with a labor force of 18,000. Foreign’s unit labor requirement in apple production is 120, while in banana production is 150. Graph the relative demand curve along with the relative supply curve of banana. (Q_A^D)/(Q_B^D )=1/2*p_b/p_a ↔1/( (Q_B^D)/(Q_A^D ))=1/2*p_b/p_a Assume: Demand for apples/ demand for bananas =half of price of bananas/ price of apples What is the equilibrium relative price of banana?
Consider two goods, X and Y. The price of product X increases from R6 to R8 per unit. As aresult, the quantity demanded of product Y decreases from 200 to 190 units. Q: Give at least two real-world examples of goods like X and Y.
Consider a small economy with a demand for a good that is q=100-4p and a supply that is q=-10+p. The world price of this good is 20. The autarky equilibrium price and quantity are: Assume no trade. Total surplus is: Assume free trade. The new price, quantity supply and quantity demanded are
Goods x and y are perfect substitutes. When the market price of good x is $5/unit, firm F produces 500 units of x. When the price of y rises, 100 consumers of y shift to the consumption of good x. This causes industry analysts to believe that firm f will increase quantity supplied of x by 100 units to match this increased demand. This conclusion is flawed because a. It assumes that firm f does not export good x. b. It assumes that the price of x will not increase in the near future. c. It assumes that firm f does not export good x. d. It assumes that firm f is the only producer of good x. e. It assumes that the supply curve of x will shift to the right in response to the increased demand.
Suppose the government imposes a quota on imports of foreign-made steel. Assume that the quota has an effect on the market for steal. The result will be that the domestic price of steel Answer 1 Question 8, the domestic production of steel Answer 2 Question 8, and imports of foreign-made steel Answer 3 Question 8
Dress Shoes Price P1 Q1 Quantity Reductions in cattle herds and restrictions on imports reduce the supply of leather in your country and increase its price. In the domestic market for dress shoes shown above, what happens as the increased price of leather raises the cost of producing shoes? Select one: a. D shifts to the right, so P rises and Q rises. Ob. S shifts to the right, so P falls and Q rises. c. D shifts to the left, so P falls and Q falls. O d. S shifts to the left, so P rises and Q falls.
Here are the questions and answers : Please draw the graphs for each answers and include all axis and details: PLEASE DO NOT SOLVE THE QUESTIONS THEY HAVE ALREADY BEEN SOLVED. Any further information needed is in the image. C) Determine the equilibrium price of good x (setting the price of good y as 1) that prevails at Home and Foreign under autarky – that is, when they do not trade with each other. Explain why any other price could not be the equilibrium price in autarky." 2 graphs one for home and one for foreign should be "Home and Foreign’s PPF" In autarky, each country has to produce both goods, otherwise, consumers would achieve a utility of 0 if one of the goods they like to consume is not available (plug 0 in one of the goods in the utility function and you get 0 level of utility). From the profit maximization problem in each industry at Home, we know that PxMP LxH = wH = PyMP LyH, At Home, the relative price of x in autarky is given by: PxMP LxH = wH = PyMP LyH…
Scenario 1: Because of a recent international trade agreement, the Indian government reduces the tariff on imported coffee. Do you think a reduction of tariff by the government affect the supply or the demand for coffee? If yes, why do you think so? Which determinant of demand or supply is being affected? How will this change the equilibrium price and quantity of coffee? Explain your reasoning and show the changes graphically. Scenario 2: Suppose the National Institutes of Health (NIH) publishes a study finding that coffee drinking reduces the probability of getting colon cancer. Do you think this will affect the market for coffee? If yes, why do you think so? Which determinant of demand or supply is being affected? How will this change the equilibrium price and quantity of coffee? Explain your reasoning and show the changes graphically. Scenario 3: Now, combine both the scenarios. In case if the Indian government reduces the tariff on imported coffee, and the recent study published by…
At $3, consumers A, B, C, and D demand 10 units, 12 units, 14 units, and 8 units of commodity A, respectively. Calculate the market demand for commodity A at $3, assuming that A, B, C, and D are the only four consumers of this product.
Suppose that you decide to start a new business of making children’s ready-made garments. Make a (Hypothetical) linear supply schedule with 7 different price points and corresponding quantity supplied for your business. Make a graph showing equilibrium, shortage and surplus in the ready-made garments market. Give interpretation of this graph. Suppose cheap ready-made garments are imported from China. Draw a graph to show changes in equilibrium price and quantity for the Pakistani ready-made garments market. Give interpretation of this graph. Suppose that to boost the local industry, the Pakistani government gives subsidy on electricity prices. Draw a graph to show changes in equilibrium price and quantity. Give interpretation of this graph. Suppose that cheap cloth is imported from China for production of readymade garments and at the same time tourism in Pakistan increases bringing many more buyers of ready-made garments in the market. What will be impact on equilibrium price and…
