9) MARKET EQUILIBRIUM Suppose the demand for a product is given by p = d(q) = -0.4q + 300 and the supply for the same product is given by p = s(q) = 0.2q. For both functions, q is the quantity and p is the price, in dollars. a. Find the equilibrium point. (i.e. the market demand quantity and the market price) b. Find the consumer surplus at the equilibrium price. c. Find the producer surplus at the equilibrium price.

13. The table below gives part of the supply schedule for personal computers in the United States. Price Quantity Supplied before tech change Quantity Supplied after tech $1,100 $900 12,000 8,000 change 13,000 9,000 a) Calculate the price elasticity of supply when price rises from $900 to $1,100 using the arc elasticity formula (the midpoint method). b) Now suppose that technology changes such that at every price, 1000 more computers are supplied. Now, as prices rise from $900 to $1,100, is the elasticity of supply smaller than, larger than, or equal to the elasticity in part a)? c) Does the change in b) change the slope of the supply curve? Are slope and elasticity the same thing? Explain.
