- **Equilibrium Points:**
  - **Point A**: Intersection of S\_Internal and D\_Internal at a price of $5.00 and quantity of 3,500 units.
  - **Point B**: Intersection of S\_Social and D\_Internal at a price of $6.00 and quantity of 3,000 units.
  - **Point C**: Situated directly above point A on S\_Social at a price of $7.00.
