QD = -47,214 – 90P + 0.8M - 2PR where P is the price of widgets, M is income, and PR is the price of a related (fictional) good, the wodget. Supply of widgets is determined by QS = 400P – 15,550 a. Determine whether widgets are a normal or inferior good, and whether widgets and wodgets are substitutes or complements. b. Assume that M = $68,500 and PR = $53. Solve algebraically to determine the equilibrium price and quantity of widgets. c. Generate a supply/demand graph in Excel. Be sure that P is the vertical axis and Q the horizontal. Does the graphical equilibrium correspond to your algebraic equilibrium?
