Based on the graph shown here, if the price of this good is $4.00 and the consumer purchases the optimal quantity, how much is consumer surplus? Price ($) $10.00 $6.00 $4.00 $2.00 10 20 30 Demand (MB) Quantity (units of the good)
A small province is planning to levy a hotel room tax of $20 per night on hotel owners to recover some of the costs of government services associated with nonresidents. The average price of a standard hotel room in this province before the implementation of the tax is $150 per night. Market analysts predict that the average price of a hotel room will increase to $155 per night after the tax. a) Use the supply and demand model to illustrate and explain how the proposed tax on hotel operators will impact the market for hotels. Clearly show in your diagram and explain in words the impact on price and quantity of hotel rooms as well as the revenue raised and any deadweight loss caused by the tax. b) Discuss how tax incidence is shared between buyers and sellers. What share of this tax is paid for by buyers, and what share is paid for by sellers? c) What do your findings in part b tell you about the price elasticity of demand for hotel rooms compared to the price elasticity of supply?…
QUESTION 4 Suppose the demand curve is given by P = 216 - 2Q and the supply curve is given by P = 5Q. Suppose the supply curve shifts left by 20. How much lower is total surplus in the new equilibrium than in the old equilibrium? Give your answer to 2 decimal places.
A). Draw the supply and demand curves for the market of specific good. B). Suppose that the equilibrium price for this product is $4 and the equilibrium quantity is 100 units. If the government imposes a price ceiling of $3 what happens? Draw the new graph explaining how quantities are affected by that decision. C). Suppose that the equilibrium price for this product is $4 and the equilibrium quantity is 100 units. If the government imposes a price floor of $5 what happens? Draw the new graph explaining how quantities are affected by that decision.
Use the following figure to answer the question: What is the consumer surplus in this market when there is a price floor created at the "price above equilibrium" line? Price A B C D E F Supply Price above equilibrium Demand Quantity A+B (area above equilbrium price and below demand, up to the quantity with the restriction) O (area below demand and above the price above the equilbrium line) O A+B+E (area under the demand above the equilbrium price) O A+B+C (area under the demand over to the quantity resulting from regulation)

What is total surplus? How is it illustrated on a demand and supply diagram?
In the market for hand sanitizers the demand function is given by: q = 80 - p, where q is the quantity of hand sanitizers (in thousands) and p is the price of hand sanitizers in dollars. Suppose the current market price for hand sanitizers is $4. 1. What is the inverse demand function equal to? Draw it in a diagram. 2. At a price of $4, what is the level of consumer surplus? 3. Due to the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic, people's preferences for sanitizing their hands change in favor of hand sanitizers. In fact, for any given price of hand sanitizers, people now want to purchase 20 units (in thousands) more hand sanitizers. o What is the new demand curve? o What is the new inverse demand curve? o Draw the new inverse demand curve in your diagram. 4. Suppose that after the increase in demand, the new price becomes $8. What is consumer surplus equal to at this new price (and with the new inverse demand curve)? 5. [Challenge Question] What would the consumer surplus be if the government…
