The accompanying graph depicts the demand (D) curve for general admission concert tickets to see ECON-Jammin', the world's first economics rock band, which is scheduled to visit your city next month. The concert venue can accommodate 100 fans with a marginal cost (MC) of $10 per person. Price $50 $40 $30 $20 $10 0 10 20 MR 30 40 D MC 50 60 Quantity ECON-Jammin' has recently discovered that its fans are made up of two distinct groups that can be easily distinguished. The band has decided to utilize its economic knowledge and offer a high-priced ticket of $40 per person and a low-priced ticket of $20 per person. Based on this information, what is the gain in profit from using price discrimination versus a single-price model? O a. $150 O b. $100 O c. $0 O d. $50 O e. $200
List the five things that are held constant along a market supply curve and identify the change in each that would shift that supply curve to the right that is, that would increase supply.
When the price is above the equilibrium, how do market forces move the market price to equilibrium. When price is above the equilibrium, there will be more sellers than buyers and the surplus goods will start to pile up. The only way for sellers to get rid of their excess goods is to raise prices. When price is above the equilibrium, there will be more sellers than buyers and the surplus goods will start to pile up. The only way for sellers to get rid of their excess goods is to lower prices.

In the 1960s, water was inexpensive. However, by 1965 Canada saw one of the country’s worst droughts. At this time, the country produced approximately 70 percent of the world’s supply of wheat. The summer of 1966 exploded into flames as over 1,400 fires swept the state. The country was forced to increase its imports of barley and oats (close substitutes of wheat) which were sold at a lower price than wheat. Ottawa was particularly hard hit by the drought. There was a limit on the water that could be consumed. Rising to the challenge, residents reduced their water consumption by 66%. As the drought continued, Ottawa saw more and more evidence of just how valuable water was. Besides being motivated to conserve, residents were also willing to spend more money so they would not be as vulnerable again. a. Graph (supply and demand curve) how the conditions in 1965-66 impacted (i) the water market and (ii) the wheat market.
