The state of Oregon's wine industry specializes in the production of Pinot Noir wine, a type of red wine. Each type of wine is traded by buyers and sellers in separate markets. Oregon's Pinot Noir is very similar (but not identical) to wines made in Santa Barbara and the Burgundy region of France. Oregon's Pinot Noir is also known to pair well with lamb, that is, many people choose to drink Pinot Noir while eating lamb. A very cold winter in France wiped out most of the crop of Pinot Noir grapes in Burgundy, France. In the graph below, click on the new equilibrium in the market for Oregon Pinot Noir. $ S

A small province is planning to levy a hotel room tax of $20 per night on hotel owners to recover some of the costs of government services associated with nonresidents. The average price of a standard hotel room in this province before the implementation of the tax is $150 per night. Market analysts predict that the average price of a hotel room will increase to $155 per night after the tax. a) Use the supply and demand model to illustrate and explain how the proposed tax on hotel operators will impact the market for hotels. Clearly show in your diagram and explain in words the impact on price and quantity of hotel rooms as well as the revenue raised and any deadweight loss caused by the tax. b) Discuss how tax incidence is shared between buyers and sellers. What share of this tax is paid for by buyers, and what share is paid for by sellers? c) What do your findings in part b tell you about the price elasticity of demand for hotel rooms compared to the price elasticity of supply?…
Please match the following: ✓ Assume that both the demand curve and the supply curve for DVD players shift to the left but the demand curve shifts more than the supply curve. As a result ✓ Assume that both the demand curve and the supply curve for DVD players shift to the left but the supply curve shifts more than the demand curve. As a result ✓ Assume that the demand curve for DVD players shifts to the left and the supply curve for DVD players shifts to the right, but the supply curve shifts more than the demand curve. As a result ✓ Assume that the demand curve for DVD players shifts to the left and the supply curve for DVD players shifts to the right, but the supply curve shifts less than the demand curve. As a result A. Both the equilibrium price and quantity of DVD players will increase. B. Both the equilibrium price and quantity of DVD players will decrease. C.

Walmart can be viewed as a first mover. Now suppose both Walmart and HEB are considering whether and how to enter a potential market. Market demand is given by the inverse demand function p= 900−q1−q2, where p is the market price margin, q1 is the quantity sold by Walmart and q2is the quantity sold by HEB. To enter the market, a retailer must build a store. Two types of stores can be built: Small and Large. A Small pantry store requires an investment of $50,000, and it allows the retailer to sell as many as 100 units of the goods at zero marginal cost. Alternatively, the retailer can pay $175,000 to construct a Large full-service supermarket that will allow it to sell any number of units at zero marginal cost. Assume Walmart stays out of the potential market (i.e.Walmart chooses not to enterN1at the first stage,q1= 0). Calculate HEB’s profit for the following cases: a.) HEB chooses not to enter N at the second stage after viewing Walmart’schoice. b.) HEB chooses to build a small…
In recent years, there has been a growing trend towards healthier eating, and this has led to increased demand for brown bread. A 2022 survey by the Hartman Group found that 62% of consumers are trying to eat healthier, and 58% are looking for more whole grains in their diet. The following diagram illustrates the impact of an increase in demand for brown bread. Which of the following statements is INCORRECT? P R12 R11 R10 0 S a) b) 900 1 000 1 100 1 200 1 300 Q Before the increase in demand, the equilibrium price is R10 and the equilibrium quantity is 900. Owing to an increase in demand, the demand curve shifts from D to D1. At a price of R10, after the increase in demand, the quantity demanded is 1 200 and the quantity supplied is 1 100. c) At a price of R10, after the increase in demand, there is an excess demand. d) A new equilibrium position is formed after the increase in demand at an equilibrium price of R12 and an equilibrium quantity of 1 100.

A federal regulation that required that all beef consumed in the US must be grown and processed in the US is likely to: Drive up the price of beef in the US Increase beef consumption in the US Decrease consumption of chicken in the US (assuming chicken is a substitute for beef in the US) Increase international trade in beef products
In late 1991 two firms, Delta Airlines and the Trump Shuttle, provided air shuttle service between New York and Boston or Washington. The one-way price charged by both firms was $142 on weekdays and $92 on weekends, with lower off-peak advance purchase fares. In September 1991 Delta increased the per-trip shuttle mileage given to members of the Delta frequent-flier pro- gram from 1,000 to 2,000 miles, even though actual mileage from New York to either Boston or Washington is about 200 miles. Moreover, Delta also offered an extra 1,000 miles to frequent fliers who made a round-trip on the same day, raising a possible day’s total to 5,000 miles. Almost simultaneously, Trump changed the frequent-flier mileage it gave shuttle passengers. (It participated in the One Pass frequent-flier program with Continental Airlines and some foreign carriers.) What sorts of changes do you think Trump made? Why
Jim's Camera shop sells two high-end cameras, the Sky Eagle and Horizon. The demand for these two cameras are as follows (DS = demand for the Sky Eagle, Ps is the selling price of the Sky Eagle, DH is the demand for the Horizon and PH is the selling price of the Horizon): Ds = 230 - 0.5 Ps + 0.38 PH DH = 260 + 0.1 Ps - 0.62 PH The store wishes to determine the selling price that maximizes revenue for these two products. Select the revenue function for these two models. Choose the correct answer below. (i) Ps Ds + PHDH = PH(260 - 0.1 Ps - 0.62 PH) + Ps(230 - 0.5 Ps + 0.38 PH) (ii) Ps Ds - PH DH = Ps(230 - 0.5 Ps + 0.38 PH) - PH(260 - 0.1 Ps - 0.62 PH) (iii) Ps Ds + PH DH = Ps(230 - 0.5 Ps + 0.38 PH) + PH(260 + 0.1 Ps - 0.62 PH) (iv) Ps Ds - PH DH = Ps(230 + 0.5 Ps + 0.38 PH) - PH(260 - 0.1 Ps - 0.62 PH) Answer: Option 3 Find the prices that maximize revenue. Do not round intermediate calculations. If required, round your answers to two decimal places. Optimal Solution:…

The market for organic and locally sourced foods has skyrocketed over the past decade as consumers focus on improving their eating habits. However, severe droughts have caused organic food prices to rise significantly, forcing many consumers to shop at conventional supermarkets (which are increasingly adding organic food options) instead of organic food markets such as Whole Foods. In response, companies such as Whole Foods have begun offering more nonorganic options on their store shelves in order to provide their consumers with more affordable options. Based on this response, what did companies such as Whole Foods realize about the elasticity of demand for organic foods that caused them to lower their prices by changing the type of foods they sell?
