The market for roasted coffee beans was in equilibrium pre-pandemic with Pcoffeeeq=$3; Qcoffeeeq=13. The price of raw coffee beans is $1.00. Then consider a supply shock: the pandemic has disrupted the supply chain for coffee beans, causing the price of raw coffee beans to increase to $1.50 (da= +$0.50). The relevant elasticities are as follows: Ecoffee D=-1513 ecoffee S=913 ɛinput S=-813 Calculate the change in the equilibrium price and quantity of coffee due to increase in cost of input (dPcoffee eq, dQcoffee eq) Calculate the new equilibrium price and quantity of coffee after the change in cost of input
