Consider the market for wheat where demand is given by: Qd80-2p, and supply is given by: Q = 32 + 6p. Now suppose that, due to a market failure (an artificial shipping constraint), a maximum of 38 units of wheat can be supplied by firms in the market. The amount of the deadweight loss caused by the market failure is $250 $380 $500 $670 $1,000
