Price Quantity Supplied before tech change Quantity Supplied after tech $1,100 $900 12,000 8,000 change 13,000 9,000 a) Calculate the price elasticity of supply when price rises from $900 to $1,100 using the arc elasticity formula (the midpoint method). b) Now suppose that technology changes such that at every price, 1000 more computers are supplied. Now, as prices rise from $900 to $1,100, is the elasticity of supply smaller than, larger than, or equal to the elasticity in part a)? c) Does the change in b) change the slope of the supply curve? Are slope and elasticity the same thing? Explain.

A. Using the mid point equation, calculate the price elasticity of demand for the market demand curve for a change from the equilibrium price of $4.00( show the equation and all calculations) is the demand curve elastic or I elastic for this price change? What would happen to the total market revenue if the price changed to $4.00 b. If a new firm(competitor) enters this market so that 6adsitional units are supplied at each price above $0, what would happen to the equilibrium price and quantity and the total market revenue of the market. Add a new market supply curve to your original graph and indicate the new equilibrium price and quantity on the appropriate axes.
