The table below illustrates the market's demand and supply for a latte. Price[$] Quantity demanded Quantity Supplied 2.70 1000 400 3.00 950 500 3.30 900 600 3.60 850 700 3.90 800 800 This year had an unexpectedly good crop of coffee beans, such that the supply of the market increased by 50% for any price. Considering the new supply curve, what will the excess demand(that is, quantity demanded minus quantity supplied) in the market be if the government institutes a price ceiling of $3.60?
How will the elasticity of demand be affected in the following cases? A. More substitutes become available. B. The income elasticity decreases.
Comment on the Elasticity of demand for a good having high number of substitutes
Imagine your income increases and you find that you buy more coffee. What is true about your income elasticity of demand (Ei) and how you perceive coffee? Ei > 0 and you view coffee as an inferior good Ei > 0 and you view coffee as a normal good Ei < 0 and you view coffee as an inferior good Ei < 0 and you view coffee as a normal good
explain how and when demand and supply have changed (shifted) for online shopping. Provide examples of historical or current events where market demand and market supply for online shopping have shifted significantly, and state the factors that you believe have caused the shift in supply and/or in demand.
In the regional market for housing, demand for single detached homes depends on the price of the house, PH, consumer income, N, and the price of a related good, townhouses, P-. The demand equation is Qda = 0.3N + 0.05PT -0.02PH. Initially, average consumer income is N = $50,000 and the average price of townhouses is $290,000. Making these substitutions, we get Qda = 29,500 - 0.02PH. This is our current demand equation. Suppose N = 50,000 and PH = 230,000. If the price of townhouses decreases from $290,000 to $255,000, what is the cross-price elasticity of demand for housing? i Click the icon to view the derivation of the current demand equation. The cross-price elasticity of demand for housing when N = 50,000, PH = 230,000, and the price of townhouses decreases from $290,000 to $255,000 is Ea b This is Single detached homes and townhouses are (Round to two decimal places as needed.) perfectly elastic. elastic. unit elastic. perfectly inelastic. inelastic.
If an increase in income leads to an increase in the demand for sushi, then sushi is a normal good. a neutral good. a complement. a necessity.
Posey has worked in the banking sector for a long time. She recently changed jobs and now works for Goldmand Sachs and has gotten a very large salary . She used to mostly eat at her local cheap restaurant and wore normal clothing, but now she eats at expensive restaurants and wears luxurious clothing. What is the changed concept of Posey's habits called? a) Income elasticity of demands b) Cross price elasticity c) Inelastic demand d) inferior demand
You may have noticed that the market demand curve is always flatter than any individual demand curve. Is the market price elasticity of demand also always lower than the individual price elasticity of demand? The market price elasticity is not always lower because elasticity does not just depend on the slope but also the level of quantity demanded. The latter may be quite small for an individual. is always lower because the percentage change in price for the individual is larger than that for the market as a whole. is not always lower because the percentage change in price for the individual is smaller than that for the market as a whole. O is always lower because the slope of the market demand curve is flatter than any of the individual demand curves that compose it.
Consider two markets: the market for waffles and the market for pancakes. The initial equilibrium for both markets is the same, the equilibrium price is $6.50, and the equilibrium quantity is 35.0. When the price is $9.75, the quantity supplied of waffles is 57.0 and the quantity supplied of pancakes is 101.0. For simplicity of analysis, the demand for both goods is the same. Using the midpoint formula, calculate the elasticity of supply for pancakes. Please round to two decimal places. Supply in the market for waffles is
Which of the following is most likely to have a low price elasticity of demand? A good that is very expensive. A good with no close substitutes. A good that most people consider a luxury. All are equally likely to have a low price elasticity of demand.
Consider the demand for shrimp shown in Figure 2. Suppose the current demand for shrimp is D (in black), the current price of a pound of shrimp is $10, and the current quantity demand for shrimp is 200K. Which of the following correctly describes the effect of a decrease in the price of a pound of shrimp? A) The price of a pound of shrimp falls to $3, the demand curve shifts left to D'' (red), and the quantity demand for shrimp remains at 200K pounds. B) The price of a pound of shrimp falls to $3, the demand curve remains at D (black), and the quantity demand for shrimp decreases to 150K pounds. C) The price of a pound of shrimp falls to $3, the demand curve shifts right to D' (blue), and the quantity demand for shrimp increases to 270K pounds. D) The price of a pound of shrimp falls to $3, the demand curve remains at D (black), and the quantity demand for shrimp increases to 270K.
