Consider the market for loft houses. The market price of each loft house is $320,000, and each consumer demands no more than one loft house. Suppose that Yakov is the only consumer in the loft house market. Their willingness to pay for a loft house is $560,000. Based on Yakov's willingness to pay, the following graph shows his demand curve for loft houses. Shade the area representing Yakov's consumer surplus using the green rectangle (triangle symbols). PRICE (Thousands of dollars) 640 560 480 400 320 240 160 80 0 0 Yakov's Demand 3 QUANTITY (Loft houses) Market Price 5 Yakov's Consumer Surplus (?)

Anderson is willing to pay $12. Kendrick can provide the item for $10, but producing the item imposes a cost of $8 on Talib. If Anderson purchases the item from Kendrick for $11, what is the total surplus from the transaction? (Remember, do not enter the $, and enter the - if TS is negative.)
Continue your analysis of the video poker market in Cedar Rapids: demand by patrons for the games (in thousands per week) is Qd = 180 - 4P and the supply is Qs = 2P - 30 where P is the price in cents charged to play a game. Now suppose that the city of Cedar Rapids passes a new law which requires that all video poker arcades contribute m cents to a city charitable fund for each game played on their machines. This is, essentially, an excise tax. In a new diagram, show the effect of the new law on the market and explain this effect. (Do not try to give an algebraic solution; just show what happens graphically and provide a description. Please be sure to illustrate how the tax of m cents shifts a specific curve, consistent with the approach we’ve taken in this course in modeling taxes and subsidies. Clearly indicate the distance by which the curve has shifted. Recall that the direction of the shift carries a specific meaning in economics for depicting taxation/subsidies.) Graphically…

Tom has 500 dollars to spend on two goods, good 1 and good 2. The seller of good 1 offers Tom the following deal: For every three units (of good 1) you buy, you will get the fourth unit for free. Determine how many units of good 1 Tom will end up with if the price of good 1 is 3, the price of good 2 is 8, Tom spends all his income on the two goods and buys 9 units of good 2. Then enter the value below.
You’d be willing to pay $200 for a daylong admission ticket to a theme park. The cost of the ticket is $120. Your consumer surplus is:
You are a math tutor, and you offer in-home tutoring on weekday afternoons for $20 an hour. On Saturdays, you tutor students hourly for free at the community center. Since you follow the Rational Rule for Consumers, which statement can you conclude is TRUE? Your economic surplus rises or at least remains unchanged when you tutor at the community center. You couldn't gain any economic surplus from tutoring at the community center since you earn $0 per hour. You can't compare the two types of tutoring because you can't quantify how much donating your time means to you. O The time you spend tutoring the students on weekday afternoons lowers your economic surplus.
There are only two people in the market - Amber and Zoe. Amber’s Marginal Willingness to Pay (MWTP) for the Qth bit of the good is given by MWTP=383-2*Q. Zoe’s Marginal Willingness to Pay (MWTP) for the Qth bit of the good is given by MWTP=51-3*Q. Based on this information, what is the market MWTP for the 32th bit of the good? Enter a number only.
Since 1979, low-income recipients have been given food stamps without charge. However, before 1979, people bought food stamps at a subsidized rate. For example, to get $1 worth of food stamps, a household paid about 40¢ (the exact amount varied by household characteristics and other factors). What is the budget constraint facing an individual if that individual may buy up to $100 per month in food stamps at 40¢ per each $1 coupon? Compare this constraint to the original budget constraint with no assistance and the budget constraint if the individual receives $100 of food stamps for free. Assume the individual has income of $120 per month. 1.) Using the multipoint curved line drawing tool, graph the budget constraint facing this food stamp recipient with subsidized food stamps. Label this line 'L₁'. 2.) Using the line drawing tool, graph the budget constraint with no food stamp assistance. Label this line 'L2.' 3.)

Dean likes to practice guitar in his apartment, working primarily on mastering old Velvet Underground songs. Because he’s sure that developing guitar prowess will lead to riches – or at least critical acclaim in indie circles – he derives $500 in surplus from being able to practice. Dean’s practicing, however, is quite loud and can be heard clearly through paper-thin walls in his hip Brooklyn apartment. Britta lives next door and likes to read, but she is unable to do so when Dean plays guitar. She gets $350 in surplus from the satisfaction of reading. Suppose that when Dean and Britta bargain, they always split any surplus to be divided evenly. Assume that it’s common knowledge that courts always overestimate damages by $200, and transaction costs are $50. Given these assumptions, which of the following legal rules is most efficient: Assuming the same information from Question 28 above, what would be the most efficient tax to levy on Dean’s playing? A. $200 B.…
