Let the supply and demand functions for raspberry-flavored licorice be given by p = S(q) = q and p = D(q) = 90 - q ,where p is the price in dollars and q is the number of batches. Graph these functions on the same axes (graph the supply function as a dashed line and the demand function as a solid line). Also, find the equilibrium quantity and the equilibrium price.
Suppose consumers will demand 40 units of a product when the price is RM12.75 per unit and 25 units when the price is RM18.75 each. Find: The demand function. i) ii) 1) iv) Price per unit when 37 units are demanded Quantity (units) demanded when the price is RM20.00. The equilibrium point if the supply equation is p = q - 0.75
Determinants of Supply and Demand Consider the market for minivans. Assume minivans are a normal good. For each of the following events, identify which of the determinants of demand or supply are affected. If demand is unaffected by this event because it creates only a supply change, select the "None" option under the "Demand Determinant" column. Similarly, if supply is unaffected by this event because it creates only a demand change, select the "None" option under the "Supply Determinant" column. Event Demand Determinant Supply Determinant People decide to have more children. A strike by steelworkers raises steel prices. Engineers develop new automated machinery for the production of minivans. The price of sports utility vehicles rises. A stock-market crash lowers people's wealth. Show the effect of the following event on the market for minivans: People decide to have more children. (?) Show the effect of the following event on the market for minivans: A strike by…
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) A few years ago, the quantity of tickets demanded was less than quantity supplied. B) Pickle ball event tickets resembled the market for recyclable cardboard a few years ago C) Greater demand for pickle ball tournament tickets will lead to a greater demand - and higher pay - for professional pickle ball players. D) All of the above. E) B and D only
Suppose that today the market for homes is in equilibrium. Tomorrow both the supply and demand curves for homes will shift to the right. As a result, the equilibrium price ........... and the equilibrium quantity ............. a will fall; will fall b will fall; will rise c cannot be determined; will rise d cannot be determine; will fall
The market for cellular phones has seen a combination of improving telecommunication technology and rising consumer incomes. Suppose you are told that the price of cellular phones decreased over the past five years. The decreasing prices of cellular phones, a normal good, implies that the magnitude of: A. he rightward shift of the demand curve is greater than that of the rightward shift of the supply curve B. The leftward shift of the demand curve is greater than that of the rightward shift of the supply curve C. The rightward shift of the demand curve is less than that of the rightward shift of the supply curve D. The rightward shift of the demand curve is less than that of the leftward shift of the supply curve
