8. Another supply and demand puzzle The market price of calzones in a college town decreased recently, and the students in an economics class are debating the cause of the price decrease. Some students suggest that the price decreased because a new type of pizza oven allows pizza shops to make a calzone in half the time. Other students attribute the decrease in the price of calzones to a recent decrease in college student enrollment. The first group of students think the decrease in the price of calzones is due to the fact that a new type of pizza oven allows pizza shops to make a calzone in half the time. On the following graph, adjust the supply and demand curves to illustrate the first group's explanation for the decrease in the price of calzones. PRICE (Dollars per calzone) QUANTITY (Calzones) Supply Demand Demand 宁夏中磨 -0- Supply The second group of students attribute the decrease in the price of calzones to the decrease in college student enrollment. On the following graph, adjust…

10. Market equilibrium The following table presents the annual demand and supply in the market for boots in Chicago. Price (Dollars per pair of boots) 20 40 60 80 100 of boots) 120 Quantity Demanded (Pairs of boots) 2,200 1,600 1,200 800 400 100 Quantity Supplied (Pairs of boots) 400 On the following graph, plot the demand for boots using the blue point (circle symbol). Next, plot the supply of boots using the orange point (square symbol), Finally, use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price and quantity in the market for boots. Note: Plot your points in the order in which you would like them connected, Line segments will connect the points automatically. 1,000 1,800 2,000 2,400 Demand 9 0
13. Suppose over the next several years the level of income and wealth rises in the state of Florida. For the housing market this would mean: An increase in the quantity of houses demanded, rising prices and an increase in supply. An increase in the demand for houses, rising prices and an increase in quantity supplied. An increase in the quantity of houses demanded shortages and higher prices. A decrease in the quantity of houses supplied as demand increases. Price gouging in this market would be rampant.
14. Understanding changes in equilibrium price and quantity Suppose you are an analyst in the oil refinery industry and are responsible for estimating the equilibrium price and quantity of home heating oil. To do so, you must consider factors that can affect the supply of and demand for heating oil. Determinants of the demand for heating oil include household income, the price of an oil furnace (a complementary good for heating oil), and the price of natural gas (a substitute good for heating oil). Determinants of the supply of heating oil include the cost of crude oil and the cost of refining crude oil into home heating oil. Use the graph input tool to help you answer the following questions. You will not be graded on any changes you make to the graph parameters. (Note: Once you enter a value in a white field, the graph and any corresponding amounts in each grey field will change accordingly.) PRICE (Dollar per barrel) 8 28 28 2 20 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 ++ 0 Market for Heating Oil 1 1…

5. Assume a product's demand is Price = -(3/4) * Quantity + 12 [or P = -(3/4)*Q+12]. Fill in the demand schedule (i.e., pick quantities [0, 4, 8, 12 etc.] and find the associated prices) and plot demand on the graph (also label graph axes with the traditional measures for demand graphs) Page 3 Quantity Price 13 12 11 10 9- 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 22

14. A supply and demand puzzle The following graph presents the market for motorcycles in 2018. Between 2018 and 2019, the equilibrium price of motorcycles remained constant, but the equilibrium quantity of motorcycles increased. Given this information, you can conclude that between 2018 and 2019, the supply of and the demand for motorcycles motorcycles Make changes to the graph to illustrate your answer by showing the positions of the supply and demand curves in 2019. 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 motorcycle) Supply Demand Demand D -0 Supply
