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.) ?

The inverse supply function for coal is PS = 2 + QS. The inverse demand function for coal is PD = 20 - 2QD. By how much does consumer surplus increase when a $3 subsidy to consumption is introduced? (Assume that no tax was in place before the subsidy is introduced).
DROP OFF BU rEDAY @UPM 27 9. DEADWEIGHT LOSS WITH PRICE CONTROLS If an equilibrium position is less than perfectly efficient, the loss in total surplus (CS + PS) is termed "deadweight loss." If D and S are linear, then DWL is measured as the area a triangle, the "loss triangle." The area of a triangle is half of (base X height). > Suppose that demand and supply equations in a competitive market are: Demand: P = 30 – 0.6Q Supply: P = 6 + 0.4Q a. Compute the market equilibrium. (Q*, P*) = ( b. Calculate consumer surplus and producer surplus at the market equilibrium. Producer surplus (PS) is the area above the supply curve and below the price. CS* = PS* = C. Suppose that a price floor of Pr = 24 is imposed by the government. Find the equilibrium quantity with the price floor. Then calculate consumer surplus, producer surplus, and deadweight loss at the regulated equilibrium. CSt = PS = DWL =
Consider the market for paper towels where the supply curve is upward sloping and the demand curve is downward sloping. (Hint: Draw the graphs to answer the questions below.) Suppose there is an effective price ceiling applied on this market. What happens to the consumer surplus as a result? 2. Suppose there is an effective price floor applied on this market. What happens to the consumer surplus as a result?

If the inverse market demand function for a good is P(Q) = 100 - 3Q and the inverse market supply function for a good is P(Q)= ) = 2Q, what are the consumer and producer surplus in the market equilibrium? The consumer surplus is $ 600. (round your answer to two decimal places.) The producer surplus is $400.00. (round your answer to two decimal places.)
Consider the following market demand and supply: Demand: P = 16 - 4Qd Supply: P = 6+ 3Qs If the market is at equilibrium, what is the producer surplus? Note: Express your answer in units of dollars, to at least two digits after the decimal. 3.06
