500                  8000                       10000

a. Use the data above to draw the supply and demand curves in the market for air
conditioners.
b. What are the equilibrium price and the equilibrium quantity in the market?
c. A new wave of immigration in the country increases the number of customers
looking for air conditioners. The following table shows the additional demand.
