16.Suppose the market for a good is composed of 1,000 identical consumers. The market's demand curve is given by QM = 150,000 – 25P. What is the equation for an individual consumer's demand curve? A) Q = 150,000,000 – 25,000P B) Q = 6,000,000 – 40P C) Q = 6- 4P D) Q = 150 –0.025 17.There are 100 consumers in the market for good X. each with a demand curve given
Derive graphically the substitution and income effects of a price increase in an EOG - X coordinate system if X is a normal; inferior but not Giffen; Giffen good. Do the same for a price decrease. Using an X - Y coordinate system, derive the substitution and income effects graphically when X and Y are perfect complements and the price of good X decreases. Do not forget to label the axes, the budget lines, the total, the substitution, and the income effects in your graph.
4) Firm A sells products x and z; the first, at a price of $ 30, sells 200 units and the well z manages to sell 400 units. To increase his sales, he decides to lower the price from x to $ 20, but this variation produces a decrease in the sale of z to 80 units: a) Calculate the cross elasticity b) What kinds of goods are x and z between them? Explain why. c) Give 2 examples of these types of goods.
What is the current price of gasoline and how many gallons of gasoline do you currently buy per month? How many gallons would you buy next month and how would your behavior change if the price fell by $1.25 per gallon? Also, based on that information, what is your price elasticity of demand for gasoline? Be sure to show how you calculated your price elasticity of demand. current price of gas = $2.53 gallons of gas per month = 72 gallons no change for next month On the average I fill my tank up 3 times a month each time I go I spend $60-$65
8. Substitutes, complements, or unrelated? You work for a marketing firm that has just landed a contract with Run-of-the-Mills to help them promote three of their products: penguin patties, raskels, and kipples. All of these products have been on the market for some time, but, to entice better sales, Run-of-the-Mills wants to try a new advertisement that will market two of the products that consumers will likely consume together. As a former economics student, you know that complements are typically consumed together while substitutes can take the place of other goods. Run-of-the-Mills provides your marketing firm with the following data: When the price of penguin patties decreases by 1%, the quantity of raskels sold decreases by 18% and the quantity of kipples sold increases by 3%. Your job is to use the cross-price elasticity between penguin patties and the other goods to determine which goods your marketing firm should advertise together. Complete the first column of the following…
1.Which of the following is held constant along a demand curve? A) Tastes and preferences. B) Household income C) The price of substitute goods D) All of the above 2.Reasons for supply curves being positively sloped include: A) typically, as output rises, unit costs rise, so price must also rise. B) firms always want to raise prices to boost profits. C) the higher the demand for a good the more firms can charge. D) all of the above. 3.Inferior goods are best defined as A) goods that only those who are relatively poor purchase. B) goods that have higher-quality alternatives. C) goods whose demand falls as people's income rises. D) goods whose supply falls as people's income rises 4.An increase in supply, not caused by a change in market price, is represented by A) a move down the given supply curve. B) a move up the given supply curve. C) a rightward shift of the supply curve. D) A and C
1a) Graph the demand curve for a product given by the equation P=16-0.5Q. 1b) Which of the following statements is accurate? a. The max willingness to pay for the 10 unit is $6. b. If the price is $8, the quantity demanded is 8 units. c. The max willingness to pay for the 8th unit is $12. d. If the price is $6, the quantity demanded is 18 units. e. None of the above.
1. Let Amy derive utility each from housing, h, and a consumer good, z, with the following utility function: 1/ U=h¾/3₂¾3 M Her Mashallian demand equations are the following: h= and z=- 3ph 2M 3p₂ Amy lives in a city where everyone works downtown. While her income is $160 per month, her commute cost (bus pass) costs her $40 per month, so she only has $120 to spend on h and z. (we assume no time cost of the commute) The consumer good, z, has a price of $1 and the price of her housing, h, is $2 per unit. a. What is her quantity demanded of h and z and what level of utility is she currently enjoying? She is considering moving to a location further from work to a house where her commuting cost would be $60 per month (so she will have $100 to spend on z and h). The market adjusts ph and housing sizes across the city so that utility is the same at every location around the city. b. What is the equation for the appropriate demand function for housing in this city? C. What the price of housing…
