4. Given the following demand and supply curves, obtain the market-clearing price and graph the equilibrium quantity. Qs = 50P, +100 la = 1300 - 10PX

A1-1. Imagine that a market for a good is characterized by the following supply and demand equations: QS = –35 + 35P QD =100 – 10P where QS and QD are quantities in units and P is the price per unit. (a) Graph the supply and demand curves with quantity on the horizontal and price on the vertical axis. Be sure to calculate the P and Q intercepts for demand and the P intercept for supply. Calculate and illustrate the equilibrium price and quantity. [Hint: Show your work.] (b) Calculate both the demand and supply elasticity around the equilibrium point. [Hint: you can use either the point method or the average arc (midpoint) method.] (c) If a regulator imposes a quantity restriction by granting quotas for 60 units of output to existing producers, what is the new price and quantity traded? Does this policy create deadweight loss (DWL) in the market? Briefly explain and identify any DWL in your diagram. (d) What is the value of a unit of quota? Illustrate in your diagram.…
Consider the market for pork illustrated in the graph. Suppose initial demand (D') is Q = 290 – 20p and supply (S') is Q = 80 + 40p and that a $3.00 tax is charged to consumers, shifting the demand curve to D. Using the original and after-tax pork demand functions and the supply function, derive the initial equilibrium price and quantity and the after-tax equilibrium price and quantity. %24 (Enter all responses using real numbers rounded to two decimal places) The equilibrium price is initially $ per kg.

6. The long-run supply curve for a particular type of kitchen knife is a horizontal line at a price of $3 per knife. The demand curve for such a kitchen knife is Q,=50– 2P where Q, is the quantity of knives demanded (in millions per year) and P is the price per knife (in dollars). a. What is the equilibrium output of such knives? b. If a tax of $1 is imposed on each knife, what is the equilibrium output of such knives? (Assume the tax is collected by the government from the suppliers of knives.) c. After the tax is imposed, you buy such a knife for $3.75. Is this the long- run equilibrium price?
6. Who should pay the tax? The following graph shows the labor market for research assistants in the fictional country of Collegia. The equilibrium wage is $10 per hour, and the equilibrium number of research assistants is 200. Suppose the government has decided to institute a $2-per-hour payroll tax on research assistants and is trying to determine whether the tax should be levied on the employer, the workers, or both (such that half the tax is collected from each side). Use the graph input tool to evaluate these three proposals. Entering a number into the Tax Levied on Employers field (initially set at zero dollars per hour) shifts the demand curve down by the amount you enter, and entering a number into the Tax Levied on Workers field (initially set at zero dollars per hour) shifts the supply curve up by the amount you enter. To determine the before-tax wage for each tax proposal, adjust the amount in the Wage field until the quantity of labor supplied equals the quantity of labor…
Comsumer Surplus Study The goal of this assignment is to apply Calculus to analyze consumer and producer surplus. This activity is based off the economical principles discussed in Section 3.1 of "Principle of Economics" and Section 7 of Chapter 3 in the Business Calculus book. The table below shows how supply and demand of gasoliine vary depending on the price: Price ($/gal) Demand (million of gal.) Supply (million of gal.) 753 513 550 1.2 700 1.4 640 600 1.6 580 639 1.8 543 660 2.2 450 680 2.4 430 700 2.6 420 720 2.8 390 735 3. 367 763 Note: there is some randomization in the above data to account for price fluctuations.

4. U.S. agricultural farmers are excited since the government announced an increase in subsidies even though the substitutes for agricultural goods that are imported have increased in demand; therefore, please illustrate by constructing a supply and demand graph, the direction in which the curves will shift and state the new equilibrium price and quantity; for example, state whether price and quantity increased, decreased, or are indeterminate. Please explain your rationale based on the determinants of demand and supply.
