Consider a competitive market for corn for which the quantities demanded and supplied (per year) at various prices are given as follows: Price (RM) Demand (millions) Supply (millions) 60 22 14 80 20 16 100 18 18 120 16 20 1. What are the equilibrium price and quantity of corn? 2. Suppose the government sets a price ceiling of RM80, will there be a shortage or surplus and how much? Explain why the market is in disequilibrium. 3. What are the impacts from the regulated price by government?
Please discuss this statement: “a drought around the world raises the total revenue that farmers receive from the sale of grain, but a drought only in Queensland reduces the total revenue that Queensland farmers receive”. Explain the characteristics of demand and supply that determine changes in total revenue, considering different time periods.
The table shows the demand and supply schedules for hamburgers. If the quantity demanded of hamburgers decreases by 40 per hour at each price, the new price of a hamburger is $ Total surplus by $
Suppose that at equilibrium, the price elasticity of demand for wheat is -1.5 and the price elasticity of supply is 0.5. If the government imposes a price ceiling that is 12% below the equilibrium price, this price constraint will lead to: A) A shortage equal to 24% of the equilibrium quantity B) A surplus equal to 24% of the equilibrium quantity C) A shortage equal to 2.4% of the equilibrium quantity D) A surplus equal to 2.4% of the equilibrium quantity
Refer to the graph shown. With an effective price ceiling at $3, total surplus is reduced by: Please see attached image.

Suppose the total demand for wheat and the total supply of wheat per month in the Kansas City grain market are as shown below: Suppose government establishes a price floor of $4.60 for wheat. What will be the main effects of this price floor? Demonstrate your answer graphically.
The demand schedule for the lobster market is linear. The equilibrium quantity of lobster is 7,363 and the equilibrium price of lobster is $11. the quantity demanded of lobster is 9,139 when the price drops to $5. What is the value of consumers surplus in the lobster market? Enter your answer using 2 decimal places. Round up if the third decimal place is 5 or higher. Do not enter "$" as part of your answer. Omit the units.
Refer to Example 2.10, which analyzes the effects of price controls on natural gas. Recall that the free-market wholesale price of natural gas (PG) is $6.40 per mcf (thousand cubic feet), the average price of crude oil (Po) is $50 per barrel, and production and consumption of gas (Q) are 23 Tcf (trillion cubic feet). Suppose the price elasticity of supply of natural gas is 0.20, the cross-price elasticity of supply of natural gas with respect to the price of oil is 0.12, the price elasticity of demand for natural gas is -0.60, and the cross-price elasticity of demand for natural gas with respect to the price of oil is 1.25. If so, then the linear supply curve for natural gas is OA. Q=1.346-1.638PG +0.055PO B. Q=12.056+0.368PG -0.495PO- O C. Q=16.296 +0.495P + 1.638Po O D. Q=10.562 +1.066PG-0.327Po O E.
