The demand function for a quantity of a certain good is D(g) = √100 - q², and the supply function is S(g) = q. The equilibrium quantity of the good is sold at the equilibrium price. Using geometry, find the total surplus (the sum of the producer surplus and the consumer surplus). Total surplus: Using geometry, find the producer surplus. Producer surplus: Using your previous two answers, find the consumer surplus. Consumer surplus:

The demand function in an economy is P=74-Q^2 and equilibrium price is 2 and equilibrium quantity is 4. Find the consumer surplus.
D(x) is the price, in dollars per unit, that consumers are willing to pay for x units of an item, and S(x) is the price, in dollars per unit, that producers are willing to accept for x units. Find (a) the equilibrium point, (b) the consumer surplus at the equilibrium point, and (c) the producer surplus at the equilibrium point. D(x)=(x−9)^2, S(x)=x^2+6x+57
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…
What is the consumer surplus in the market equilibrium? Again, the equations are: Qs = 3P-90 Qd = 400 - 5P
Given: (x is number of items) Demand function: d(x) = 200 – 0.3x Supply function: s(x) = 0.5x Find the equilibrium quantity: Find the consumers surplus at the equilibrium quantity:
Consider the inverse demand curve: p=70-2Q. Assume the market price is $20.00. Calculate consumer surplus at the equilibrium market price and quantity. Consumer surplus (CS) is $. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.)
Consumer surplus is a measure of the difference between: a) The price which a consumer has to pay and the cost of producing the good (in a diagram, the area between the market price, and the supply curve). b) The consumer’s willingness to pay, and the cost of production (the area between the demand curve and the supply curve). c) The value which a consumer places on a unit of the good, and the market price (the area between the demand curve and the market price line). d) The marginal revenue from sales and the marginal cost of sales (the area between the marginal revenue and the marginal cost curves).
Each rectangle on the graph corresponds to a particular seller in this market: blue (circe symbols) for Andrew, green (triangle symbols) for Beth, purple (diamond symbols) for Darnell, tan (dash symbols) for Eleanor, and orange (square symbols) for Jacques. (Note: The name labels are to the right of the corresponding segment on the supply curve.) Use the rectangles to shade the areas representing producer surplus for each person who is willing to sell a motor scooter at a market price of $70. (Note: If a person will not sell a motor scooter at the market price, indicate this by leaving their rectangle in its original position on the palette.) ?

You’d be willing to pay $200 for a daylong admission ticket to a theme park. The cost of the ticket is $120. Your consumer surplus is:
You are a math tutor, and you offer in-home tutoring on weekday afternoons for $20 an hour. On Saturdays, you tutor students hourly for free at the community center. Since you follow the Rational Rule for Consumers, which statement can you conclude is TRUE? Your economic surplus rises or at least remains unchanged when you tutor at the community center. You couldn't gain any economic surplus from tutoring at the community center since you earn $0 per hour. You can't compare the two types of tutoring because you can't quantify how much donating your time means to you. O The time you spend tutoring the students on weekday afternoons lowers your economic surplus.
