3.In the market for nutritional bars there are two types of consumers: men and women. Suppose that the market equilibrium happens at the same price and quantity for both the women and men's market. At the market equilibrium, the price elasticity of demand for men is ϵMD,P=−2 and the price elasticity of demand for women is ϵWD,P=−2.4. If the supply for nutritional bars is perfectly elastic and if the government implements a subsidy of $A$A in this market, we can be sure that: The increase in the consumer surplus for women will be ?? (greater tlower tequal) than the increase in the consumer surplus for men. The deadweight loss will be greater in which market? (women, men, both)
Respond to the following matching statements with regard to the definition of supply. Match 1: The claim that other things being equal, the quantity supplied of a good increase when the price of that good rises. This matches the Law of Supply. Match 2: A graphical object showing the relationship between the price of a good and the amount that sellers are willing and able to supply at various prices. This matches the Supply curve. O Both matches are false O Match 2 is correct and Match 1 is false. O Both matches are correct. O Match 1 is correct and Match 2 is false. Next 1 Previous
