A hotel rents rooms to customers by the night. The hotel determines that if it sets the price of the room to be $160 per night, 145 rooms will be rented. In order to rent 195 rooms, it must lower the price to $110 per night. If the hotel sets the price to be $110 per night, what is the marginal revenue? The marginal revenue is $ per room. (Round answer to nearest dollar. If more than one answer, separate with a comma.)
4. Consider two markets for the same good: markets 1 and 2. The demand for the good on these markets are: P₁ = 20 2Q₁ and P2 = 40-2Q2 The total cost of producing any output Q is c(Q) = 10 + 8Q where Q = 9₁ +92. (a) Suppose these two markets are completely separated but each is served by a per- fectly competitive industry. What will be the prices and outputs supplied to cach of the two markets?

There is no barrier to entry for new firms wanting to produce the identical quantity of solar panels c. Assuming there are no sources of market failure, the equilibrium point maximises the sum of consumer plus producer surplus. d. The equilibrium maximises producer’s surplus.
Homework (Ch 06) Back to Assignment Attempts Do No Harm / 1 3. Effects of rent control Rent controls force landlords to price apartments below the equilibrium price level. An immediate effect is a shortage (excess demand) of apartments, because the quantity of apartments demanded is greater than the quantity supplied at the regulated price. When cities prevent landlords from charging market rents, which of the following are common long-run outcomes? Check all that apply. O Landlords earn lower profits from renting housing units, but the rent charged has no effect on either the quantity or quality of rental units. O The future supply of rental housing units increases. O Black markets develop. O The quality of rental housing units falls.

1. Characteristics of competitive markets The model of competitive markets relies on these three core assumptions: 1. There must be many buyers and sellers-a few players can't dominate the market. 2. Firms must produce an identical product-buyers must regard all sellers' products as equivalent. 3. Firms and resources must be fully mobile, allowing free entry into and exit from the industry. The first two conditions imply that all consumers and firms are price takers. While the third is not necessary for price-taking behavior, assume for this problem that a market cannot maintain competition in the long run without free entry. Identify whether or not each of the following scenarios describes a competitive market, along with the correct explanation of why or why not. Scenario There are hundreds of colleges that serve millions of students each year. The colleges vary by location, size, and educational quality, which enables students with diverse preferences to find schools that match…

As this market makes the transition to its long-run equilibrium, will the price rise or fall? Will the quantity demanded rise or fall? Will the quantity supplied by each firm rise or fall?

Solve only c and d 2. There are 2 groups with different demand in a market, as follows: ?!=40−?1 and ?"=100−2?2 a. Give the inverse demand curves and marginal revenue in each of these groups. b. If marginal cost is flat at $10, calculate the profit-maximizing quantities and prices associated with this market place. Are the prices for each group different? Comment on the outcomes. c. Calculate the producer surplus associated with the outcomes generated in part b. d. Now calculate the equilibrium price and quantity if the firm charges one price across all consumers. What is the producer surplus associated with this outcome and how does it differ to that calculated in part c?
