Consider a mid-sized southwestern college town where the demand for liquor is described by the equation Qp = 1500 - 75P, where Qp is the the quantity of bottles of liquor per month, and P is the price (in dollars) for one bottle of liquor. The supply of liquor is described by the equation: Qs = 50P - 325 were Qs is the quantity of bottles of liquor per month. Last month, the local government repealed part of its restricting laws on the public consumption and sale of liquor. As a result of this change, the market for liquor is adjusting and the current market price is $13. (Question 8 of 8) Consider that one month after the repeal went into effect (and the market is in equilibrium), some sellers leave the liquor market. At the same time a report by state health officials about the sudden surge in the number of new alcohol poisoning among college students who are first-time drinkers, led university officials to implement harsher punishment for college students found with alcohol or…

At $14, the demand is 16 At $14, the quantity demanded is 16 The equilibrium quantity s 12 At $14, the quantity supplied is 16 The equilibrium quantity is 16 At $14, the supply is 16 The equilibrium price is $14 At $14, the quantity supplied is 9 At $14, the supply is 9 The equilibrium price is $17 At the equilibrium price supply and demand would be equal At a price of $17, the quantity demanded and quantity supplied would be equal At $14 there is a market shortage of 7 units At $14 there is a market shortage of 4 units At $14 there is a market surplus of 7 units. Supply and Demand are equal at P=17.
Consider a hypothetical market for copper (q), where q is measured in 1000 tons. Suppose the supply of virgin copper is Sv = 10+5q. Suppose that the supply for recycled copper is Sr = 15+2.5q. Demand for copper is P = 65 - 1.5q. Note, buyers don't distinguish between recycled and virgin copper. The equilibrium price and output for copper is (hint: draw a graph) q=8.46, p = $52.31. q=0, p = $65. q=12.50, p = $46.25. O q=4.44, p = $58.33.
