Suppose that the demand and supply curves for green peas are given by QD = 10 – 8P and QS = 2P, where P is the price per pound and Q is measured in thousands of pounds. If the price per pound of peas is $0.50, the market _____, so the price will _____. has excess demand of 3,000 pounds; rise has excess supply of 1,000 pounds; fall is in equilibrium; remain unchanged has excess demand of 5,000 pounds; rise
Solve B,D and E subparts Q)The market supply curve is given by P = 2Q and the market demand curve is given by P = 42 Calculate the equilibrium quantity and price. B) Show the demand curve, the supply curve, and equilibrium quantity and price on the graph. C) In equilibrium, what is the total revenue from sales?

Part 2: Creation and/or diversion The U.S. demand for particulate air cleaners (all of which are produced abroad) is given by QD=580-8P. The U.S. can purchase cleaners from China and/or from Vietnam; consumers perceive the products from these two countries as identical. Vietnam is willing to supply cleaners to the U.S. according to the equation P=20+0.5Q", while China's export supply to the U.S. is given by P=20+0.25QC. a) Suppose the U.S. engages in free trade with both China and Vietnam. Compute the equilibrium price paid by U.S. consumers and the number of cleaners China and Vietnam will each sell to the U.S. Show your work. b) Repeat your analysis from part a), now for the case where the U.S. imposes a tariff of $10 on each imported cleaner. c) Repeat your analysis once again, now for the case where the U.S. imposes a $10 tariff on each cleaner imported from China, but engages in free trade with Vietnam.
