Suppose the demand in the poor country is P=100- 9Q and supply is P=Q. Suppose the supply in the poor country is different from the one in country A only because it faces less strict environmental regulations. That is, in country B it costs firms Q to produce Q units, whereas it costs 2Q in country A to produce quantity Q. Draw country B’s demand and supply diagram in 'autarky' with the standard axes (P vertical, Q horizontal). Mark carefully on the diagram the demand curve, the supply curve, and then work out the equilibrium (show working out and the numbers not just the point) . How large is welfare under autarky ?

Consider two goods, X and Y. The price of product X increases from R6 to R8 per unit. As aresult, the quantity demanded of product Y decreases from 200 to 190 units. Q: Give at least two real-world examples of goods like X and Y.
1. Suppose that a small, tropical country produces mangoes for domestic consumption and possibly for export. The national demand and supply curves for mangoes in this country are given by the following: P = 50 - M P = 25 + M (national demand) (national supply) where P denotes the relative price of mangoes and M denotes the quantity of mangoes (in metric tons). (a) Illustrate these relationships geometrically. What is the autarky price and quantity (b) exchanged? (c) Suppose that the world price of mangoes is 45. Will this small country export mangoes? If so, how many tons?
Home has 12,000 units of labor available. It can produce two goods, apples and bananas. The unit labor requirement in apple production is 100, while in banana production is 75. There is now also another country, Foreign, with a labor force of 18,000. Foreign’s unit labor requirement in apple production is 120, while in banana production is 150. Graph the relative demand curve along with the relative supply curve of banana. (Q_A^D)/(Q_B^D )=1/2*p_b/p_a ↔1/( (Q_B^D)/(Q_A^D ))=1/2*p_b/p_a Assume: Demand for apples/ demand for bananas =half of price of bananas/ price of apples What is the equilibrium relative price of banana?

true or false - explain in short be supported with an economic model. If the demand for and supply of a product both increases, the equilibrium quantity of the product must also increase. If the demand for a product decreases and the supply of the product increases, the equilibrium price of the product may increase or decrease, depending on whether supply or demand has shifted more. Assume that there is a fixed supply in the market. A higher price will result from a change in demand brought about by a rise in income.

In the following graphs, label the original equilibrium as Eo, Po, and Qo. Label the new equilibrium as E1, P1, and Q1. Draw arrows along axes to indicate directions of change. Explain as much as necessary in words. No numbers are required here. 1. Show on 5 separate graphs the effect of each of the following events on the equilibrium price and quantity of bananas in the United States: a. a civil war/revolution in El Salvador b. an increase in the demand for banana yogurt c. a decrease in the prices of other fruits d. increased shipping costs due to increased energy costs e. a U.S. tariff on banana imports from Nicaragua.
Individual and market supply Suppose that Charles and Dina are the only suppliers of ice cream cones in a particular market. The following table shows their monthly supply schedules: Price Charles's Quantity Supplied Dina's Quantity Supplied (Dollars per cone) (Cones) (Cones) 1 0 5 2 3 9 3 5 12 4 6 14 5 7 15 On the following graph, plot Charles's supply of ice cream cones using the green points (triangle symbol). Next, plot Dina's supply of ice cream cones using the purple points (diamond symbol). Finally, plot the market supply of ice cream cones using the orange points (square symbol).

2. Reciprocal Dumping with transport costs. Consider two countries, i = {Spain, France}, each having the following inverse demand function: P = 20 – 2(qi+qi) where P is the price in Spain, qi is the quantity sold by the Spanish firm in Spain, and q is the quantity sold by the French firm in Spain. By analogy, the inverse demand function in France is: P 3D 20 — 2(ф2 + q2) where P* is the price in France, q2 is the quantity sold by the Spanish firm in France, and q5 is the quantity sold by the French firm in France. In each country there is only one firm. The cost function of the Spanish firm is: TC = 2(q1 + q2) %3D The cost function of the French firm is: TC* 2(qi + 2) To transport one unit from one country to the other, there is a transport cost t per unit. (There is no transport cost within countries.) 1
Price The market for coffee: In the in the 1990s, global preference for coffee changed. Coffee became both a more mainstream drink — both in terms of regular coffee consumption and "fancy" drinks like caffe mocha. At about the same time, Vietnam entered the market as a major exporter of coffee. In the figure, let EO be the initial equilibrium. Point your mouse and click on the new equilibrium intersection and the new equilibrium price and quantity in the left and right panels separately. NOTE: The two panels represent two different versions of what could occur, depending on the relative size of the shifts in demand and supply. For example, the first panel shows that shifts in demand are much larger than shifts in supply. % Quantity Price Quantity
Please see attachment and show your work . What are the steps and answer with explanation? Please examine the market for AC units below. In this market, the Home nation has imposed a quota limiting the number of AC units that foreign nations are allowed to export into the Home economy. If the home nation increased the level of the quota (theerby allowing more AC units to be imported into the Home economy), then we would expect ___________ to increase in the home economy. 1. consumer surplus 2. producer surplus 3. quota revenue 4. deadweight loss
