Based on Nick's willingness to sell, plot his supply curve as a step function on the following graph using the orange points (square symbol). Be sure to plot your first point at (0, 0). Price of Water 10 9 100 8 7 8 10 3 2 1 0 0 2 3 Quantity of Water Suppose the price of a bottle of water is $4. In this case, Nick receives $ 5 If the price rises to $6, Nick now sells Nick's Supply Price = $4 Use the black line (plus symbol) to draw a price line at $4. Next use the grey point (star symbol) to indicate how many bottles of water Nick will produce and sell at that price. Finally, use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the area that represents Nick's producer surplus. bottles of water. This Quantity Sold Producer Surplus in producer surplus from his water sales. his producer surplus to $

Suppose the market demand for a cup of cappuccino is given by Qp = 24-4P and the market supply for a cup of cappuccino is given by Qs = 8P - 12, where P = price (per cup). Graph the supply and demand schedules for cappuccino. 1.) Using the line drawing tool, draw the demand curve for cappuccino. Label your line 'D'. 2.) Using the line drawing tool, draw the supply curve for cappuccino. Label your line 'S'. 3.) Using the point drawing tool, plot the equilibrium price and quantity. Label your point 'E'. Carefully follow the instructions above and only draw the required objects. Price per cup ($) 10.50- 웅 9.00- 7.50 6.00 4.50 3.00+ 1.50- 3 Market for Cappuccino 6 9 12 15 Cups of cappuccino 18 21 24
Following exercise is requested:(a) Draw a budget line knowing that: nominal income is $100/week, price of lamb meat (Pm) is $2/kilo and price of housing (Ph) is $20/week. It is also known that ALL INCOME is spent on both goods.b) Assume now that monetary income remains CONSTANT, but price of lamb meat DOUBLES to $4/kilo, while the price of housing DECREASES to $10/week. Draw new budget line.
A decrease in the price of good Y will have what effect on the budget line on a normal X-Y graph? Select one: OA. Parallel outward shift of the line OB. Parallel inward shift of the line OC. Decrease the horizontal intercept COD. Increase the vertical intercept
Suppose the price of an M&M is $2.00, the price of Skittles is $3.00, and the budget is $24. M&Ms are on the x-axis and Skittles are on the y-axis. If the price of an M&M decreases to $1.49, what happens to the Budget Line? Group of answer choices The budget line undergoes a parallel shift outward The budget lines undergoes a parallel shift inward The budget lines rotates outward The budget lines rotates inward
Suppose the price of a BMW rises. The substitution effect means BMWs are now relatively BMWS. expensive than they were before in relation to other cars, and consumers will buy
Explain how the downward sloping demand curve can be derived using indifference curves and budget lines. Using the same technique, show that it is theoretically possible to have an upward sloping demand curve
Assume that a consumer can buy only two goods, X and Y, and has an income of $13,000. The price of X is $60 and the price of Y is $140. What is the slope of the budget line if X is measured horizontally and Y is measured vertically? Note that you will need to include a negative sign in your answer. If needed, round your answer to the nearest two decimal places.
A consumer consumption bundle contains good X and Y. Suppose the price of good X goes up and a consumer goes on consuming the exact same amount of X as before. Check the correct statement(s).A) Both X and Y are inferior. B) X is an inferior good.C) In the special case where X is Leisure, and Y is "all other goods", X is an inferior good.D) The consumption of Y decreases.E) It is impossible that the consumption of X remains unchanged when the price of × goes up.F) The substitution effect is negative
(2) Graph the following given these two goods and their respective prices: books (units with per week) at price Ph=1; and food (units per week) at price Pƒ= 2: (a) Point A (market basket A) that maximizes satisfaction of a consumer. (b) Point B (market basket B) that is affordable but satisfaction is not maximized. (c) Point C (market basket C) that gives a higher level of satisfaction but not affordable.
