What are the effects on the equilibrium price and quantity of chips if information becomes available that eating chips makes people unhealthy and at the same time the price of salt (which is needed to produce chips) decreases? Fully explain your answer.
By providing an example, explain three factors that might shift the demand curve for a product inward (to left).
Suppose that Paolo and Sharon are the only consumers of ice cream cones in a particular market. The following table shows their monthly demand schedules: Price Paolo’s Quantity Demanded Sharon’s Quantity Demanded (Dollars per cone) (Cones) (Cones) 1 8 16 2 5 12 3 3 8 4 1 6 5 0 4 On the following graph, plot Paolo’s demand for ice cream cones using the green points (triangle symbol). Next, plot Sharon’s demand for ice cream cones using the purple points (diamond symbol). Finally, plot the market demand for ice cream cones using the blue points (circle symbol). Note: Line segments will automatically connect the points. Remember to plot from left to right.

What is the difference between substitutes and complements? Indicate two goods that are substitutes for each other. Indicate two goods that are complements.
This problem involves solving demand and supply equations together to determine price and quantity. a. Consider a demand curve of the form QD=-2P+20, where QD is the quantity demanded of a good and P is the price of the good. Graph this demand curve. Also draw a graph of the supply curve Qs =2P-4, where Qs is the quantity supplied. Be sure to put P on the vertical axis and Q on the horizontal axis. Assume that all the Qs and Ps are nonnegative for parts a, b, and c. At what values of P and Q do these curves intersect-that is, where does QD = Qs ? b. Now, suppose at each price that individuals demand four more units of output-that the demand curve shifts to QD - 2P+24. Graph this new demand curve. At what values of P and Q does the new demand curve intersect the old supply curve-that is, where does QD = Qs ? c. Now finally, suppose the supply curve shifts to Q's=2P-8. Graph this new supply curve. At what values of P and Q does QD=Q's? Show all working calculations and label garph with…

The following graph shows the market for pizzas in San Diego, where there are over a thousand pizza restaurants at any given moment. Suppose the number of pizza restaurants increases significantly. Show the effect of this change on the market for pizzas by shifting one or both of the curves on the following graph, holding all else constant. 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 pizza) QUANTITY (Pizzas) Supply Demand Demand Supply (?)
Which of the following statements is true for a Giffen good? (a) Following a fall in the price of the good, there will be a decrease in the quantity demanded due to the substitution effect; an increase in the quantity demanded due to the income effect; the substitution effect will outweigh the income effect. (b) Following a fall in the price of the good, there will be an increase in the quantity demanded due to both the substitution and income effect and the two effects will therefore reinforce each other. (c) Following a fall in the price of the good, there will be an increase in the quantity demanded due to the substitution effect; a decrease in the quantity demanded due to the income effect; the substitution effect will outweigh the income effect. (d) Following a fall in the price of the good, there will be an increase in the quantity demanded due to the substitution effect; a decrease in the quantity demanded due to the income effect; the income effect will outweigh the…
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 ?
Suppose the demand curve is downward sloping, the supply curve is upward sloping, and the equilibrium quantity is 50 units. Show on a graph that the difference between the maximum buying price and minimum selling price is greater at 25 units than at 33 units.
In the new academic year, a school mandates that all students must take an Economics course. Concurrently, the school made their order for Economics text books based on the number of students last year. What impact does this situation have on demand, supply, price and quantity? The prices of inputs in the production of bags have increased. Concurrently, taste and preferences have favored the bag in the last 4 market periods. What impact does this situation have on demand, supply, price and quantity?
