Suppose anyone with a driver's license is capable of supplying one trip from the airport to the downtown business center on any given day. The long-run supply curve of such trips is horizontal at p = $50, which is the average cost of such trips. Suppose daily demand is Q = 1000 - 10p. Calculate the change in consumer surplus, producer surplus and social welfare if the city government restricts the number of trips to be 300 at maximum by issuing special licenses
