Supply and Demand-End of Chapter Problem The demand for organic carrots is given by the following equation: 08 = 75-SPo+ Pc + 21 where Po is the price of organic carrots, Pe is the price of conventional carrots, and / is the average consumer income. Notice how this isn't a standard demand curve that just relates the quantity of organic carrots demandod to the price of organic carrots. This demand function also describes how other factors affect demand-namely, the price of another good (conventional carrots) and income. a. Calculate the inverse demand curve for organic carrots 5 and I= 10, then drag the endpoints of the line when Pc 5 labeled (a.) on the graph to plot this curve

Consider some determinants of the price elasticity of demand: • The availability of close substitutes • Whether the good is a necessity or a luxury • How broadly you define the market • The time horizon being considered A good with many close substitutes is likely to have relatively demand, since consumers can easily choose to purchase one of the close substitutes if the price of the good rises. A good's price elasticity of demand depends in part on how necessary it is relative to other goods. If the following goods are priced approximately the same, which one has the least elastic demand? Chemotherapy for cancer patients O Yacht The price elasticity of demand for a good also depends on how you define the good. Organize the goods found in the following table by indicating which is likely to have the most elastic demand, which is likely to have the least elastic demand, and which will have demand that falls in between.

Price D2 D1 Quantity O a shift from D1 to D2 O a movement along D2 from point A to point B O a shift from D2 to D1 O a movement along D2 from point B to point A
Exercise: You study the arms market represented by the following demand function qd = 150 - p - 4pa, with p the price of an ammunition and pa the price of chromium molybdenum alloy, a steel used to make firearms. The supply function is given by q³ = -50 + 26p - 5pp, with p, the price of powder (an essential input for making ammunition) QUESTION: Compute the direct and cross-price elasticity of demand at equilibrium prices and quantities, for Pr=15 and p,=1
Consider two markets: the market for waffles and the market for pancakes. The initial equilibrium for both markets is the same, the equilibrium price is $6.50, and the equilibrium quantity is 35.0. When the price is $9.75, the quantity supplied of waffles is 57.0 and the quantity supplied of pancakes is 101.0. For simplicity of analysis, the demand for both goods is the same. Using the midpoint formula, calculate the elasticity of supply for pancakes. Please round to two decimal places. Supply in the market for waffles is

On April 1, the price of gas at Bob's Corner Station was $3.70 per gallon. On May 1, the price was $4.45 per gallon. On June 1, it was back down to $3.70 per gallon. SEM: Between April 1 and May 1, Bob's price increased by or Between May 1 and June 1, Bob's price decreased by Suppose that at a gas station across the street, prices are always 20% higher than Bob's. In absolute dollar terms, the difference between Bob's prices and the prices across the street is when gas costs $4.45 than when gas costs $3.70. Some economists blame high commodity prices (including the price of gas) on interest rates being too low. Suppose the Fed raises the target for the federal funds rate from 2% to 2.5%. This change of percentage points means that the Fed raised its target by approximately
The market for cellular phones has seen a combination of improving telecommunication technology and rising consumer incomes. Suppose you are told that the price of cellular phones decreased over the past five years. The decreasing prices of cellular phones, a normal good, implies that the magnitude of: A. he rightward shift of the demand curve is greater than that of the rightward shift of the supply curve B. The leftward shift of the demand curve is greater than that of the rightward shift of the supply curve C. The rightward shift of the demand curve is less than that of the rightward shift of the supply curve D. The rightward shift of the demand curve is less than that of the leftward shift of the supply curve

The demand for hamburgers is given by Qd=10-p and the supply is Qs=4p-10, where pd and ps are, respectively the price paid by demanders and the price received by suppliers. A: Draw the demand and supply functions. What is the price-elasticity of demand? What is the price-elasticity of supply? B: Find the equilibrium quantity and price, and show them on the graph. C: Suppose due to the rising health awareness the demand decreases to Q d=5-p. Find the new equilibrium prices and quantity, and show them on the graph. D: Suppose that the demand and supply are as before, i.e. Qd=10-p and Qs=4p-10, but now the government imposes a quantity tax on the suppler at the rate of 1 per unit of the quantity. What quantity will be sold and what price? E: In part d), what is the total amount of tax collected by the government? How this tax amount is divided between the demanders and supplier? Who pays more and why? Explain
Q2) Illustrate the law of Demand by showing the differences between the changes of quantity demanded and the changes of demand? (Give example by using diagram)
Draw a demand curve and a supply curve for one of your favourite goods and explain why the point of intersection for demand and supply gives the equilibrium.also illustrate diagrammatically what happens to the equilibrium price and quantity in this market as a result of a decrease in all consumers’ income. Here you have to consider: Whether a change in all consumers’ income has an effect on the demand or the supply side of the market. How to establish the direction of the change (increase or decrease?) How to deduce the impact on the equilibrium. Go back to the original equilibrium; to the point before the consumer income decrease. Now, consider that the market is flooded by new firms wanting to produce the good. Draw this change—again, consider the three points mentioned above. Finally, let’s put the two things together. What happens if you simultaneously decrease income and increase the number of firms involved in the market in terms of the new equilibrium price and quantity? Hint:…
