3. Suppose that people consume only three goods, as shown in this table: 2014 price 2014 quantity 2015 price 2015 quantity Tennis Balls Golf Balls $4 100 $6 100 $2 100 $2 100 Bottles of Gatorade $1 200 $2 200 a. What is the percentage change in the price of each of the three goods? b. Using a method similar to the consumer price index, compute the percentage change in the overall price level. c. If you were to learn that a bottle of Gatorade increased in size from 2014 to 2015, should that information affect your calculation of the inflation rate? If so, how? d. If you were to learn that Gatorade introduced new flavors in 2015, should that information affect your calculation of the inflation rate? If so, how?
Consumers eating higher food costs The price of milk rose about 21% from July 2006 to July 2007, while the price of frozen orange juice increased 31%. At the same time, with higher gasoline prices, the demand for ethanol increased. Because ethanol is made from corn, the price of corn rose, which in turn increased the price of bread, chicken, cheese, and the fast-foods that use cheese. As people in China and India become richer, they are eating more beef and chicken and less rice and tofu-another source of higher food prices in the United States. Source: USA TODAY, September 6, 2007 Draw a curve to show the effect of the higher price of corn on the market for milk. Label it. Draw a point at the new equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity. 4.00 3.50 3.00- 2.50 2.00 1.50 Price (dollars per gallon) 2.50 S D 140 1.00- 100 110 120 130 140 150 160 170 180 Milk (thousands of gallons per day) >>> Draw only the objects specified in the question.
The following graph shows the market for hamburgers in Detroit, where there are over 1,000 burger joints at any given moment. Suppose an innovation in meat processing technology makes it possible to produce more hamburgers at a lower cost than ever before. Show the efect of this change on the market for hamburgers by shifting one or both of the curves on the following graph, holding all else constant. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther. Supply Demand Supply Demand QUANTITY (Hamburgers) PRICE (Dolars per hamburger)
Each small square in the grid for this graph has one side equal to 1 pound of bolts and one side equal to 1 dollar per pound. The area of one small square is therefore_______. There are ________ small squares in the purple shaded rectangle. On this graph, the area of the purple rectangle corresponds to: Jack Hardware’s revenue from selling bolts, measured in dollars The price of the bolts, measured in dollars per pound The number of bolts that Jack Hardware sold, measured in pounds None of these—the area has no meaning Now suppose Jack Hardware lowers its price to $3.00 per pound of bolts. As a result, it now sells 8 pounds of bolts. Use the blue rectangle to draw the area that corresponds to the new price and quantity. Did lowering the price of bolts increase Jack Hardware’s revenue? Yes No

The market price of pizzas in a college town increased recently, and the students in an economics class are debating the cause of the price increase. Some students suggest that the price increased because several pizza parlors in the area have recently gone out of business. Other students attribute the increase in the price of pizzas to a recent decrease in the price of beer. Everyone agrees that the decrease in the price of beer was caused by a recent decrease in the price of grain, which is not generally used in making pizzas. The first group of students thinks the increase in the price of pizzas is due to the fact that several pizza parlors in the area have recently gone out of business. On the following graph, adjust the supply and demand curves to illustrate the first group’s explanation for the increase in the price of pizzas. (graph in photo) The second group of students attributes the increase in the price of pizzas to the decrease in the price of beer.…

The market price of pizzas in a college town decreased recently, and the students in an economics class are debating the cause of the price decrease. Some students suggest that the price decreased because several new pizza parlors have recently opened in the area. Other students attribute the decrease in the price of pizzas to a recent decrease in the price of hamburgers at local burger joints. Everyone agrees that the decrease in the price of hamburgers was caused by a recent decrease in the price of ground beef, which is not generally used in making pizzas. Assume that pizza parlors and burger joints are entirely separate entities-that is, there aren't places that serve both pizzas and hamburgers. The first group of students thinks the decrease in the price of pizzas is due to the fact that several new pizza parlors have recently opened in the area. On the following graph, adjust the supply and demand curves to illustrate the first group's explanation for the decrease in the price of…
