Refer to Figure 3-8. The graph in this figure illustrates an initial competitive equilibrium in the market for apples at the intersection of D2 and S1 (point C). If the price of oranges, a substitute for apples, increases and the wages of apple workers increase, how will the equilibrium point change?

Question 3 Market equilibrium is a market state where the supply in the market is equal to the demand in the market. Required: a) Using a suitable diagram to illustrate your answer, explain how the market is ‘self-correcting’ and returns to an equilibrium position if initially the market price was set below the equilibrium market price. b) In the summer, it was observed that there was a decrease in both the price of umbrellas and the quantity of umbrellas sold. Explain this observation in supply and demand terms using diagram. c) If the demand and supply curve for hats are given by the following equations: D = 140 – 7P S = 20 + 3P Where P is the price of hats. Showing all workings, calculate the quantity of hats bought and sold at equilibrium. d) State five factors which could cause the demand curve to shift right.
Suppose goods X and Y are complimentary products. Which of the following are correct with respect to the competitive market model of supply and demand? (check all that apply) an increase in the price of good Y will cause an increase in demand for good X and reduce the quantity demanded for good Y an increase in the price of good Y will cause a decrease in demand for good X and reduce the quantity demanded for good Y a decrease in the price of good X will increase the quantity demanded for good X and cause a decrease in demand for good Y a decrease in the price of good X will increase the quantity demanded for good X and cause an increase in demand for good Y
Homework (Ch 07) The following graph shows the supply curve for a group of sellers in the U.S. market for smartphones (orange line). Each seller has only one smartphone to sell. The market price of a smartphone is shown by the black horizontal line at $105. Each rectangle on the graph corresponds to a particular seller in this market: blue (circle symbols) for Jacques, green (triangle symbols) for Kyoko, purple (diamond symbols) for Musashi, tan (dash symbols) for Rina, and orange (square symbols) for Sean. (Note: The name labels are to the right of the corresponding segment on the supply curve.) Use the rectangles to shade the areas representing producer surplus for each person who is willing to sell a smartphone at a market price of $105. (Note: If a person will not sell a smartphone at the market price, indicate this by leaving his or her rectangle in its original position on the palette.) ? 240 210 Sean Jacques 180 150 Kyoko 120 90 Musashi 60 C O PRICE (Dollars per smartphone)…
Consider a market for solar energy panels as shown in the given graph. Due to a major breakthrough in terms of technological advancement in its manufacturing, the cost of production has gone down drastically. This causes the manufacturers of solar energy panels to shift their supply curve. Show the impact of this technological advancement on the supply curve of solar energy panels. Using the Line drawing tool, draw the new supply curve of solar energy panels. Carefully follow the instructions above and only draw the required object. What happens to the equilibrium price and quantity demanded after the supply curve of solar energy panels shifts? O A. Both price and quantity demanded increase. O B. Both price and quantity demanded decrease. O C. Price increases and quantity demanded decreases. O D. Price decreases and quantity demanded increases.

Suppose the supply function for avocados (in avocados per month) is Q = 58 + 15p – 20pf, where p; is the price of fertilizer per Ib. If the price of fertilizer rises by $1.80 per Ib., how will this affect the supply curve for avocados? If the price of fertilizer rises by $1.80 per Ib., then the supply of avocados will change by avocados per month at each price. (Enter your response as a whole number and include a minus sign if necessary.) 个 Using the line drawing tool, show how an increase in the price of fertilizer affects the avocado supply curve. Label this new supply curve 'S. Carefully follow the instructions above, and only draw the required object. Q, Quantity of avocados per month p, $ per avocado
Suppose there are only two goods - Food (F) and Shelter (S). The demand equations for these two goods depend on their prices, pf and ps as follows: DE(PF.Ps) = 14 - 2,4pf - 1,3ps Ds(PF.Ps) = 16 - 2,0pF - 3,7ps The supply curves depend only on their own prices: S(pf) = PF S(ps) = 8,0ps Determine the equilibrium price of shelter.

Suppose the demand function for avocados is Q=104-40p + 20p₁ +0.01Y, where p is the price of avocados, p, is the price of tomatoes, and Y is average income, and the supply function for avocados is where p, is the price of fertilizer. Suppose p = $0.80, Y = $4,000, and p = $0.40. What is the equilibrium price and quantity of avocados? The equilibrium price of avocados is and the equilibrium quantity is Q=58+15p -20pf, and the equilibrium quantity is p=$2 Q = 80 units. (Enter your responses rounded to two decimal places.) Suppose the government charges a $2.20 specific tax per avocado to be paid by consumers. With the tax, the equilibrium price of avocados is p=$ Q= units.
#10: The quantity demanded x (in units of a hundred) of the Mikado miniature cameras per week is related to the unit price p (in dollars) by p= -0.2x² + 80 and the quantity x (in units of a hundred) that the supplier is willing to make available in the market is related to the unit price p (in dollars) by p = 0.1x² + x + 40. If the market is set at the equilibrium price, find the consumers' surplus and the producers' surplus.
