The Market: SUVS (sports utility vehicles) The Market price: $50,000. The Scenario: A tax of $2,000 is placed on the producers of each new SUV produced because they block visibility for others on the freeway. Assume a standard upward-sloping supply and downward-sloping demand in this market. What price do you expect after this tax of $2.000 is placed on SUV producers in this market? Between $50,000 and $52,000. O Less than $50,000. O $52,000 exactly. O $50.000 exactly. More than $52.000.

The above below represents the perfectly competitive market for pumpkins both before and after the imposition of a tax on suppliers, which is represented by the shift of the supply curve from Supply 1 to Supply 2. Price ($) 8.50 7.25 5.50 B 700 a. $7.25 b. $8.50 A 1,200 Supply 2 Supply 1 Demand Quantity of pumpkins Based on the figure above, what will be the sticker price after the tax is imposed? Note: Since the tax is paid by suppliers, it has to be included in the sticker price paid by the consumer. C. $5.50 d. None of the other options are correct
1) Keep in mind that management needs to recognize the demand for their product. While this is an obvious statement, it cannot be over emphasized. For example, the inverse demand for Tires is: P= 81-250, The current market price is $20 and average income (I) is $10,990. (19 Points) a) Calculate the markets total Demand? (4 Points) b) Calculate the market's consumer surplus. (4 Points). Draw the Demand Curve and identify the price quantity and label the axes for price and quantity. c) Calculate the price elasticity of demand at the equilibrium output. (4 Points) d) Is the Price elasticity of demand calculated in Question #1c elastic or inelastic? (4 Points) e) Based on the income elasticity of demand, is this product a normal good or an inferior good? (3 Points)
Consider a town in which only two residents, Hubert and Kate, own wells that produce water safe for drinking. Hubert and Kate can pump and sell as much water as they want at no cost. For them, total revenue equals profit. The following table shows the town's demand schedule for water. Price Quantity Demanded Total Revenue (Dollars per gallon) (Gallons of water) (Dollars) 6.00 0 0 5.50 45 $247.50 5.00 90 $450.00 4.50 135 $607.50 4.00 180 $720.00 3.50 225 $787.50 3.00 270 $810.00 2.50 315 $787.50 2.00 360 $720.00 1.50 405 $607.50 1.00 450 $450.00 0.50 495 $247.50 0 540 0 Suppose Hubert and Kate form a cartel and behave as a monopolist. The profit-maximizing price is____per gallon, and the total output is_____gallons. As part of their cartel agreement, Hubert and Kate agree to split production equally. Therefore, Hubert's profit is _____, and Kate's profit is______. Suppose that Hubert and Kate have been successfully…

Price(dollars per bushel) Quantity demanded(bushels) 8 2,000 7 4,000 6 6,000 5 8,000 4 10,000 3 12,000 The table above gives the demand schedule for snow peas. The demand curve for snow peas is a straight line and so the elasticity of demand is the same at all prices but not 1. 1 at all prices. higher at higher prices. lower at higher prices.
Q4) Assume a market of a specific good. The demand and supply equation is as shown below: Pp = 70 – 3QD Ps = 5 + 20s The demand price elasticities is inelastic. From the firms' perspective, the revenue would be higher if price increases. Let's assume that the market is currently not at the equilibrium with the market price being higher by 2 units than the equilibrium price. 1. Find the market quantity 2.
