5. Producer surplus and price changes The following graph plots a supply curve (orange line) for a group of recent graduates looking to sell used air fryers. Each seller has only a single used air fryer available for sale. Think of each rectangular area beneath the supply curve as the "cost," or minimum price that each seller is willing to accept. Assume that anyone who has a cost that equals the market price is willing to sell their used air fryer.

Statement True False Assuming each seller receives a positive surplus, Rajiv will always receive more producer surplus than Simone.

3. Consumer surplus for a group of consumers The following graph plots the demand curve (blue line) for several consumers in the market for motor scooters in Meade, a small town located in Kansas. The Meade market price of a motor scooter is given by the horizontal black line at $80. Each rectangle you can place on the following graph corresponds to a particular buyer in this market: orange (square symbols) for Dmitri, green (triangle symbols) for Frances, purple (diamond symbols) for Jake, tan (dash symbols) for Latasha, and blue (circle symbols) for Nick. Use the rectangles to shade the areas representing consumer surplus for each person who is willing and able to purchase a motor scooter at a market price of $80. (Note: If a person will not purchase a motor scooter at the market price, indicate this by leaving his or her rectangle in its original position on the palette.)

8. Consumer and Producer Surplus Suppose Charles is the only seller in the market for bottled water and Yakov is the only buyer. The following lists show the value Yakov places on a bottle of water and the cost Charles incurs to produce each bottle of water: Yakov's Value Value of first bottle: $7 Value of second bottle: $5 Value of third bottle: $3 Value of fourth bottle: $1 Charles's Costs Cost of first bottle: $1 Cost of second bottle: $3 Cost of third bottle: $5 Cost of fourth bottle: $7 The following table shows their respective supply and demand schedules: Price Quantity Demanded Quantity Supplied $1 or less 4 о $1 to $3 3 1 $3 to $5 2 2 $5 to $7 1 3 More than $7 0 4 Use Charles's supply schedule and Yakov's demand schedule to find the quantity supplied and quantity demanded at prices of $2, $4, and $6. Enter these values in the following table. Price Quantity Demanded Quantity Supplied 2 4 A price of brings supply and demand into equilibrium. At the equilibrium price, consumer…
Comsumer Surplus Study The goal of this assignment is to apply Calculus to analyze consumer and producer surplus. This activity is based off the economical principles discussed in Section 3.1 of "Principle of Economics" and Section 7 of Chapter 3 in the Business Calculus book. The table below shows how supply and demand of gasoliine vary depending on the price: Price ($/gal) Demand (million of gal.) Supply (million of gal.) 753 513 550 1.2 700 1.4 640 600 1.6 580 639 1.8 543 660 2.2 450 680 2.4 430 700 2.6 420 720 2.8 390 735 3. 367 763 Note: there is some randomization in the above data to account for price fluctuations. Make sure to check that you input the correct data in your device. Perform the following work • Assume that Supply has a quadratic relationship with the price.

4. U.S. agricultural farmers are excited since the government announced an increase in subsidies even though the substitutes for agricultural goods that are imported have increased in demand; 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.

8. Total economic surplus The following graph plots the supply and demand curves in the market for VR headsets. Use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price and quantity of VR headsets. Then use the green point (triangle symbol) to fill the area representing consumer surplus, and use the purple point (diamond symbol) to fill the area representing producer surplus. (?) PRICE (Dollars per headset) 350 315 280 245 210 175 140 105 70 35 0 Demand 0 Supply 40 4 80 120 160 200 240 280 320 360 QUANTITY (Millions of headsets) Total surplus in this market is $ 400 million.
