Consider the market for commercial fans. The following graph shows the demand and supply for commercial fans before the government imposes any taxes. First, use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price and quantity of commercial fans in the absence of a tax. Then use the green point (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing total consumer surplus (CS) at the equilibrium price. Next, use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing total producer surplus (PS) at the equilibrium price. Suppose the government imposes an excise tax on commercial fans. The black line on the following graph shows the tax wedge created by a tax of $50 per fan. First, use the tan quadrilateral (dash symbols) to shade the area representing tax revenue. Next, use the green point (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing total consumer surplus after the tax. Then, use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing total producer…

1. Consider the market for cell phones in Celltown. Suppose that the inverse demand curve is P = -2Qd + 300 and that the inverse supply curve is P = 3Qs + 50. a. Sketch the inverse supply and inverse demand curves. b. Calculate the equilibrium price and quantity. c. Compute consumer surplus (CS), producer surplus (PS), and total surplus. d. Suppose the Mayor of Celltown institutes a price floor of P = $250 in order to promote the new technology. It is illegal to sell cell phones at a price below P. What is the quantity transacted in the market with the price floor? e. Compute the change in CS and the change in PS. f. Compute the change in total surplus. If you were an economic advisor to the Mayor whose goal is to maximize the total surplus of the city, would you advise continuing the policy or not? Explain. g.
