The following graph plots the market for electric guitars in Houston, where there are always over 1,000 music stores. Suppose the price of acoustic guitars decreases. (Assume that people regard electric guitars and acoustic guitars as substitutes.) Show the effect of this change on the market for electric guitars by shifting one or both of the curves on the following graph, holding all else constant. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther. PRICE (Dollars per guitar) Supply Demand Demand 1 Supply
In each of the following situations, list what will happen to the equilibrium price and the equilibrium quantity for a particular product, which is a normal good. Briefly explain your reasoning. 1)The technology advances 2)Price is expected to increase in the future.
The following graph shows the annual market for Florida oranges, which are sold in units of 90-pound boxes. (graph in photo) In this market, the equilibrium price is ____ per box, and the equilibrium quantity of oranges is ____ million boxes. For each of the prices listed in the following table, determine the quantity of oranges demanded, the quantity of oranges supplied, and the direction of pressure exerted on prices in the absence of any price controls. Price Quantity Demanded Quantity Supplied Pressure on Prices (Dollars per box) (Millions of boxes) (Millions of boxes) 35 15 True or False: A price ceiling above $25 per box is a binding price ceiling in this market. a. True b. False Because it takes many years before newly planted orange trees bear fruit, the supply curve in the short run is almost vertical. In the long run, farmers can decide whether to plant oranges on their land, to plant something…
PRICE (Dollars per cup) Suppose that Brian and Crystal are the only suppliers of iced lattes in some hypothetical market. Their monthly supply schedules are given by the following table: Price (Dollars per cup) Brian's Quantity Supplied Crystal's Quantity Supplied (Cups) (Cups) 1 0 3 2 4 6 3 6 8 4 7 10 5 8 11 On the following graph, plot Brian's supply of iced lattes using the green points (triangle symbol). Next, plot Crystal's supply of iced lattes using the purple points (diamond symbol). Finally, plot the market supply of iced lattes using the orange points (square symbol). Note: Line segments will automatically connect the points. Remember to plot from left to right. 5 0 0 4 8 12 16 20 24 QUANTITY (Cups) Brian's Supply Crystal's Supply --- Market Supply
How can we apply the supply and demand analysis to a competitive market? What is a real-life example of an increase in the number of consumers in the market or an increase in the number of sellers/buyers in the market (competitive market)?
Consider the market for pens. Suppose that the number of students who are allergic to the rubber used in pencil erasers increases, leading more students to switch from pencils to pens in school. Further, the price of ink, a major input in the pen production process, has increased sharply. On the following graph, labeled Scenario 1, indicate the effect these two events have on the demand for and supply of pens. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther. 10 P 2 1 D 10 9 3 2 1 0 Next, complete the following graph, labeled Scenario 2, by shifting the supply and demand curves in the same way that you did on the Scenario 1 graph. 0 1 2 Scenario 1 3 Scenario 2 Supply Demand Supply 5 6 QUANTITY (Millions of pens) Equilibrium Object Price Quantity Demand 7 8 9 10 -o Demand Supply Scenario 1 (?)

Consider the number of options you had to quench your thirst at the various locations. What do you notice about the price of the soda as the number of options (substitutes) increased?
Assume that the equilibrium price is at $3 and equilibrium quantity is at 40 units of a product. Then, imagine that suddenly any of determinants of demand, other than the price of the product, caused demand to increase while, at the same time, one of determinants of supply, other than the price of the product, caused supply to decrease. TASK: First, draw the demand and supply graph to show the original equilibrium price at $3 and equilibrium quantity at 40 units. Second pick ONE specific DETERMINANT of DEMAND and ONE specific DETERMINANT of SUPPLY Third, show in the graph what it looked like if demand increased and supply decreased (select where you think that the new price and quantity would change to), what the new equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity would be, after both changes in demand and supply occurred. Fourth, in a couple of words, write down what would be YOUR new equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity. [That is, tell us that the original equilibrium price…

The following graph presents the market for sweaters in 2018. Between 2018 and 2019, the equilibrium price of sweaters remained constant, but the equilibrium quantity of sweaters increased. Given this information, you can conclude that between 2018 and 2019, the supply of sweaters and the demand for sweaters decreased PRICE (Dollars per sweater) increased was unchanged he graph to illustrate your answer by showing the positions of the supply and demand curves in 2019. rag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back on, just drag it a little farther. QUANTITY (Sweaters) Supply Demand Demand Supply ?
The inverse demand for good X is given by Px=25-0.005Qx+0.15Py+0.1I where Px is the price of X, Py is the price of Y, I is income, and Qx is the quantity demanded of good X. The inverse demand is just price as a function of quantity instead of quantity as a function of price. To get the demand function, just solve the equation for Qx. You should do this before answering the following. Goods X and Y are . . . .. . . .. . . .. . . . .. . . . X is a . . .. . . . .. . . good.
Gasoline prices have been and will continue to be a major issue for the economy. From the start of the Covid-19 pandemic up to the present day, gasoline prices have been in the news. 1. What has happened to the price of gasoline over the past 12 months? Be specific and include actual prices in your answer. 2. Discuss the recent changes in price from a supply and demand standpoint. Have the price changes been due to a change in supply, a change in demand, or both? Explain your answer. 3. What do you think has been the reason(s) for the very large increase in gasoline prices over the past several months? . 16
