Question 4 4.1. It is important to differentiate between a change in quantity demanded versus a change in demand. Using a diagram, illustrate and explain an increase in the price of the product. Clearly state whether a price increase will cause a change in quantity demanded or a change in demand. 4.2. Equilibrium is the condition in the market system when the quantity demanded is equal to the quantity supplied. Given the definition of equilibrium, answer the following questions: 4.2.1. Calculate the equilibrium quantity and price if the quantity supplied can be represented by the equation Qs = 18 000 + 0.2P and the quantity demanded can be represented by the equation Qd = 2 400 - 0.1P. [Tip: Solve the value of P first and then substitute this P-value in the calculation of the Q-value.] 4.2.2. Based on your answer in 4.2.1, draw a graph to illustrate market equilibrium. Clearly indicate equilibrium quantity and price.

The following table shows the annual demand and supply in the market for shoes in Miami. Price (Dollars per pair of shoes) 20 40 60 80 PRICE (Dollars per pair of shoes) 120 100 20 On the following graph, plot the demand for shoes using the blue point (circle symbol). Next, plot the supply of shoes using the orange point (square symbol). Finally, use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price and quantity in the market for shoes. Note: Plot your points in the order in which you would like them connected. Line segments will connect the points automatically. 0 100 0 Quantity Demanded (Pairs of shoes) 1,100 900 800 200 600 500 400 600 800 QUANTITY (Pairs of shoes) Quantity Supplied (Pairs of shoes) 200 400 500 900 1000 1,200 1200 O Demand Supply Equilibrium
Draw a demand and supply graph for each of the following questions. For each question, start by drawing a correctly labeled graph of the market for cookies in equilibrium. Your starting graphs should each have correctly labeled axes and demand and supply curves. Label the equilibrium price and quantity as p1 and p2 on the axes of each of the starting graphs. 1. Show the effect on the equilibrium price and quantity in the market for cookies if the price of milk increases. Determine which curve is affected by the change in the price of milk and whether it increases or decreases. On your graph, draw a new curve indicating the shift- either to the right or the left. Label the new equilibrium price and quantity as p2 and q2. 2. Show the effect on the equilibrium price and quantity in the market for cookies if the price of flour decreases. Determine which curve is affected by the change in the price of flour and whether it increases or decreases. On your graph, draw a new curve indicating…

You are studying the market for a particular brand of perfume. You notice that a couple of changes are happening in the market at the same time. The flower that creates the perfume scent has been affected by a disease. In addition, consumers begin to worry about the safety of the ingredients that are used in the perfume. What do you expect will happen to the equilibrium price and the equilibrium quantity? Explain your answer, include the necessary graphs.

Question 4 Assume new cars are normal goods. What will happen to the equilibrium price of new cars if price of gasoline falls and the price of steel used in cars falls? Quantity will rise, and the effect on price is ambiguous. Price will rise, and the effect on quantity is ambiguous. Price will fall, and the effect on quantity is ambiguous. Quantity will fall, and the effect on price is ambiguous.

Consider each of the scenarios before, and explain what the effect of the given changes would be on the market for the good in bold that was originally in equilibrium. State which curve(s) shift (supply, demand, both, neither), and whether price and quantity are higher or lower after the change, or if this is not possible to determine.
