raw the demand curve for an environmental service, for example carbon sequestration (process of capture and long-term storage of atmospheric carbon dioxide) from tree planting, and discuss what its slope means as a measure of willingness to pay for the service(explain the direction of slope). Label the axes on your graphs clearly. Draw the supply curve for the service and discuss its slope and how it measures the marginal costs of providing increasing levels of the service (explain the direction of the slope). Identify the price, P*, and quantity, Q*, that would satisfy the static efficiency/equilibrium condition. Label the area of net benefit to society, i.e., consumer surplus (CS) and producer surplus (PS).

The following graph plots the supply and demand curves in the market for VR headsets. Use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price and quantity of VR headsets. Then use the green point (triangle symbol) to fill the area representing consumer surplus, and use the purple point (diamond symbol) to fill the area representing producer surplus.

Consider that the retail market for sanitizing wipes in a small locale is described by the follow demand and supply equations respectively: P = 8.40 - 0.02Q and P = 6.60 + 0.01Q where P is the price in dollars and Q is the quantity measured in thousands per week. The market is currently in equilibrium. (Question 8 of 8) Now consider than an unexpected viral outbreak led to consumers ensuring that much more surfaces (counter tops, door handles, etc.) are clean and sanitized. At the same time, the government's demand for sanitizing wipes at various public institutions (hospitals, schools, etc.) has impacted the supply of sanitizing wipes in the retail market. Although the government is neither a buyer nor seller in the retail market, their requests for sanitizing wipes does affect how many sanitizing wipes firms are able to supply in the retail market. The market for sanitizing wipes adjusts afterwards and the market is in equilibrium. Suppose that after the market for sanitizing wipes…
QUESTION 2 Mike notices that taking an Uber (ride-share service where price fluctuates with supply and demand) from his law firm's office in the city to his home normally costs $9 Monday to Thursday nights (x1 rate). But on Friday nights, as there are many people in the city drinking, the Uber costs up to $27 (x3 rate). Which of the following statements are true: Ceteris paribus, there should be less Ubers driving around on a Friday night due to the increased prices according to the law of supply. Ceteris paribus, Mike is more likely to take the bus home on a Friday night. Ceteris paribus, an Uber driver's working hours (individual quantity supplied) should increase on a Friday Night according to the law of supply. Ceteris paribus, an Uber driver will work more on a Tuesday night rather than a Friday night because of the higher rates, according to the law of supply.
A city water district wants to encourage local businesses and homeowners to landscape with drought-tolerant plants. After disappointing results from a publicity campaign, the water district decides to subsidize local plant nurseries so they can offer the plants at a lower price. Suppose the graph shows the supply and demand curves for a drought tolerant plant, such as purple sage. Drag the appropriate curve to show the impact of the water district subsidy.
The diagram to the right illustrates a hypothetical demand curve representing the relationship between price (in dollars per unit) and quantity (in 1,000s of units per unit of time).

The following graph shows the supply curve for a group of students looking to sell used tablets. Each student has only one used tablet to sell. Each rectangular segment under the supply curve represents the “cost,” or minimum acceptable price, for one student. Assume that anyone who has a cost just equal to the market price is willing to sell his or her used tablet.
The task I am struggling with: Determine the supply and demand function and the equilibrium point.Graph the results.Demand. If a given product is priced at $7 per unit, there is a demand for 4 units;if a given product is priced at $6 per unit, there is a demand for 8 units.Supply. If a given product is priced at $9 per unit, suppliers are willing to produce4 units; if a given product is priced at $23 per unit, suppliers are willing toproduce 12 units. Thank you very much.

Imagine you are bundling popcorn, soda and candy for AMC Theaters. You have the following data on your customers. Assume 1 of each customer type. For simplicity, assume the price of each good is zero (so really maximizing revenue). Customer Type 1 Customer Type 2 Customer Type 3 Popcorn $6 $5 $7 Candy $7 $6 $5 Soda $5 $7 $6 (a) If you had to sell each product separately, what would you price them at to maximize profits? (b) If you had an option to bundle the 3 products together (a pure bundle option instead of selling separately), what would you price the bundle at? (c) How much would this increase or decrease profits by?
