Subsidies: Governments can provide subsidies to businesses that are most affected by the supply shock. For example, if a sudden rise in the price of oil is causing higher transportation costs, governments can provide subsidies to help offset those costs. Explain that graphically please.

Imagine you are the owner of a natural gas company. You can either extract as much of the resource as fast as possible or delay extraction until a future time. Projections indicate that the price of natural gas is expected to fall in the future. What would you do in the present? a. Sell as much natural gas as possible now and less in the future—reflected by a rightward shift of the current supply curve in the future. B. Sell as much natural gas as possible now and less in the future—reflected by a movement down the current supply curve.C. Sell as much natural gas as possible now and less in the future—reflected by a movement up the current supply curve.D. Sell as little natural gas as possible in the present and delay extraction until the future—reflected by a leftward shift of the current supply curve in the future.
Please explain how an increase in the price of crude oil can affect the Canadian economy.
Supply and demand is a very important way to judge how prices are determined in our economy. You will need to focus on a recent price change that you have experienced when going to the grocery store. Identify why the price increased based on the determinant of supply and demand. Analyze the impact of why the price change occurred and explain the challenges that firms will be facing to raise prices on consumers.
Identify what sort of effects the following listed events have.You are required to define the market under study (for example: the labour market, oil market, etc). Explain whether the event acts on the demand or supply side, and whether the event leads to a quantity or price change, or leads to a shift in demand and/or supply.Make sure to explain what sort of assumptions you are making on the elasticities of demand and supply.d) The implementation of a Carbon tax in the economy. A Carbon tax is charged according to the level of emissions of greenhouse gases in an economy.e) The implementation of an increase in tuition in University studies
Consider a market in which the demand curve is given by P= 1000-50, and the supply curve is given by P = 1.00. Suppose there is a positive supply shock and the supply curve shifts to the right, so that quantity supplied increases by 100 at each price, What is the new equilibrium price? Give your answer to 2 decimal places.

Draw a diagram where sellers have to pay a $X tax to the Government on each unit that they sell. Then this tax is decreased to $Y. Draw a demand and supply diagram showing this tax reduction causing an increase in Government taxation revenue. Please provide a written explanation for your diagram and discuss its policy implications. ( maximum word limit: 250 words)
When graphing a market, one of the key aspects to remember is that equilibrium occurs where supply equals demand. Therefore, you can find the equilibrium price and quantity by setting the supply and demand equations equal to one another. In this case, since domestic demand is P = 11.5 - Q and domestic supply is P = 5.5 + Q, you can find the equilibrium quantity as 11.5 – Q = 5.5 + Q. Solving for Q, you get 2Q = 6 or Q = 3 (which in this case equates then to 300 million bushels). Plugging that answer back into either the supply or demand equation, you find the equilibrium price (which is 8.5 or 85 yuan) or Rent in this case). This is the equilibrium point with no trade.With the application of the world price and then the world price plus tariff, you just need to plug the established prices (6.5 for world price, 6.5 + 1.5 for the tariff) into the supply and demand equations to find the quantity supplied and the quantity demanded with or without the tariff. Recently, China placed tariffs…
Please make a supply and demand diagram showing the following information Increasing supply without balances in demand increases competition within the supply side with the main mechanism for winning work being lower wages for comparative services. Continued competition within increasing supply (ongoing immigration) acts as gravity on wage growth as ongoing competition to win work / gain employment continues through undercutting and price competition. This results in a lower.
Question 2 Identify what sort of effects the following listed events have. You are required to define the market under study (for example: the labour market, oil market, etc). Explain whether the event acts on the demand or supply side, and whether the event leads to a quantity or price change, or leads to a shift in demand and/or supply. Make sure to explain what sort of assumptions you are making on the elasticities of demand and supply. a) An increase in oil prices as a consequence of a price dispute in the world oil markets b) The implementation of a minimum wage c) The implementation of subsidies to milk producers in Australia d) The implementation of a Carbon tax in the economy. A Carbon tax is charged according to the level of emissions of greenhouse gases in an economy. e) The implementation of an increase in tuition in University studies.
Consider a market in which the demand curve is given by P= 1000-50, and the supply curve is given by P=7.20. Suppose there is a positive supply shock and the supply curve shifts to the right, so that quantity supplied increases by 100 at each price. What is the new equilibrium price? Give your answer to 2 decimal places. 590.2
Draw a model: Consider the market for corn. Suppose that right now, the equilibrium price is considered “too low” by farmers (i.e. suppliers) in order to make a living. These farmers go to their state representatives and convince them to enact a price floor that is above the equilibrium price. Depict this situation graphically. Is there a shortage or a surplus (or does nothing happen)? Now, conceptually, describe how we know with certainty, that consumers are harmed by this policy. Then, describe conceptually how farmers may be harmed or may benefit from this policy. Graphically depict how we know that consumers are harmed while farmers may be better or worse off (ambiguous). If we were to consider the “total surplus” of consumers and farmers, can we say with certainty whether this economy is better or worse off from the price floor?
