In 1998, five companies were found guilty because of their actions to raise the price of an animal feed additive, lysine, by limiting its supply. Explain why they would engage such a practice with the use of a graph. Assume that the demand for lysine is inelastic in the short term.
The demand for hamburgers is given by Qd=10-p and the supply is Qs=4p-10, where pd and ps are, respectively the price paid by demanders and the price received by suppliers. A: Draw the demand and supply functions. What is the price-elasticity of demand? What is the price-elasticity of supply? B: Find the equilibrium quantity and price, and show them on the graph. C: Suppose due to the rising health awareness the demand decreases to Q d=5-p. Find the new equilibrium prices and quantity, and show them on the graph. D: Suppose that the demand and supply are as before, i.e. Qd=10-p and Qs=4p-10, but now the government imposes a quantity tax on the suppler at the rate of 1 per unit of the quantity. What quantity will be sold and what price? E: In part d), what is the total amount of tax collected by the government? How this tax amount is divided between the demanders and supplier? Who pays more and why? Explain
Consider the market for pens. Suppose that new medical concerns regarding graphite absorption have put pressure on schools to reduce pencil use in favor of pens. Further, the price of plastic, a major input in the pen production process, has dropped sharply. On the following graph, labeled Scenario 1, indicate the effect these two events have on the demand for and supply of pens. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther. PRICE (Dollars per pen) 10 Supply 8 7 X Demand 5 6 7 8 9 10 2 3 QUANTITY (Millions of pens) 9 1 0 10 Scenario 1 0 1 Scenario 2 9 Supply 8 7 X Demand 2 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 QUANTITY (Millions of pens) 1 0 Next, complete the following graph, labeled Scenario 2, by shifting the supply and demand curves in the same way that you did on the Scenario 1 graph. Demand 0 Supply Demand Supply ?
