Table #1: The demand schedule below pertains to sandwiches demanded per week Quantity Demanded Price $3.00 Alfred $5,00 $3.00 $5.00 Belinda $3.00 55.00 Charissa Refer to Table #1. Suppose Alfred, Belinda, and Charissa are the only demanders of sandwiches. Also suppose: O () x = 2; (ii) the current price of a sandwich is $5.00; (iii) the market quantity supplied of sandwiches is 10, and (iv) the law of supply applies to the supply of sandwiches. Then O there is a shortage of 3 sandwiches and the price would be expected to rise from its current level of $5.00 O there is a shortage of 3 sandwiches and the price would be expected to fall from its current level of $5.00 O there is a surplus of 5 sandwiches and the price would be expected to rise from its current level of $5.00 O there is a surplus of 5 sandwiches and the price would be expected to fall from its current level of $5.00

) Listen What is Jack's clasticity of demand if his first price for his skatcboards was $28 (P-$28) at a quantity of 4 (Q1=4) and his second price per skateboard was $35 (P,=$35) at a quantity of 5 (Q2=5)? State whether clasticity of demand is clastic, inclastic, or unit clastic.
The following table shows two demand schedules for a given style of men's shoe-that is, how many pairs per month will be demanded at various prices at Stromnord, a men's clothing store. $ Price $75 70 65 60 55 $ D1 Quantity Demanded 53 60 68 77 87 Suppose that Stromnord has exactly 65 pairs of this style of shoe in inventory at the start of the month of July and will not receive any more pairs of this style until at least August 1. Instructions: Enter your answers as a whole number. a. If demand is D₁, what is the lowest price that Stromnord can charge so that it will not run out of this model of shoe in the month of July? What if demand is D2? D2 Quantity Demanded 13. 15 18 22 27 b. If the price of shoes is set at $75 for both July and August and demand will be D2 in July and D₁ in August, how many pairs of shoes should Stromnord order if it wants to end the month of August with exactly zero pairs of shoes in its inventory? pair(s) How many pairs of shoes should it order if the price…

Suppose that Paolo and Sharon are the only consumers of ice cream cones in a particular market. The following table shows their monthly demand schedules: Price Paolo’s Quantity Demanded Sharon’s Quantity Demanded (Dollars per cone) (Cones) (Cones) 1 8 16 2 5 12 3 3 8 4 1 6 5 0 4 On the following graph, plot Paolo’s demand for ice cream cones using the green points (triangle symbol). Next, plot Sharon’s demand for ice cream cones using the purple points (diamond symbol). Finally, plot the market demand for ice cream cones using the blue points (circle symbol). Note: Line segments will automatically connect the points. Remember to plot from left to right.
8. Substitutes, complements, or unrelated? You work for a marketing firm that has just landed a contract with Run-of-the-Mills to help them promote three of their products: penguin pops, flopsicles, and kipples. All of these products have been on the market for some time, but, to entice better sales, Run-of-the-Mills wants to try a new advertisement that will market two of the products that consumers will likely consume together. As a former economics student, you know that complements are typically consumed together while substitutes can take the place of other goods. Run-of-the-Mills provides your marketing firm with the following data: When the price of penguin pops decreases by 10%, the quantity of flopsicles sold decreases by 9% and the quantity of kipples sold increases by 9%. Your job is to use the cross-price elasticity between penguin pops and the other goods to determine which goods your marketing firm should advertise together.

Question #1: On the news there has been outrage over the price of Epipens, a medication needed for allergic reactions to food and bee stings. The price of a two-pack of Epipens has risen from $100 to $600. The number of Epipens purchased fell from 1000 to 400. At the current time, there are no substitutes for this drug Will this increase in price cause a decrease in demand or a decrease in quantity demanded? Illustrate your answer graphically (either by showing a movement along the demand curve or by shifting the demand curve).
Refer to Figure 3.10. A decrease in supply is represented by the movement from A) S2 to S3. B) S2 to S1. C) Point B to Point A along supply curve S2. D) Point B to Point C along supply curve S2.
Consider the weekly supply of gasoline in Figure 1. How much gasoline will producers wish to sell if the price of a gallon of gasoline is $1.20? A) 100K gallons b) 140K gallons C) 236K gallons D) 308K gallons
What is the current price of gasoline and how many gallons of gasoline do you currently buy per month? How many gallons would you buy next month and how would your behavior change if the price fell by $1.25 per gallon? Also, based on that information, what is your price elasticity of demand for gasoline? Be sure to show how you calculated your price elasticity of demand. current price of gas = $2.53 gallons of gas per month = 72 gallons no change for next month On the average I fill my tank up 3 times a month each time I go I spend $60-$65

A particular commodity has a price-demand equation given by p = √18,444 - 417x, where x is the amount in pounds of the commodity demanded when the price is p dollars per pound. (a) Find consumers' surplus if the equilibrium quantity is 40 pounds. (Round your answer to the nearest cent if necessary.) (b) Find consumers' surplus if the equilibrium price is 17 dollars. (Round your answer to the nearest cent if necessary.) $
Assume that coffee and tea are substitutes. John and Pamela are vendors at MANCOSA campus. John sells tea and Pamela coffee. They usually sell these drinks at R15 per cup, However, it is a cold Monday morning and Pamela decides to decrease the price of coffee to R12 a cup. The resultant effect would be movement along the demand curve for coffee takes place since it is a change in the price of coffee. Select one: O True O False
