Price (cents per bag) 60 80 100 Quantity demanded Quantity supplied (millions of bags per week) 150 130 110 140 160 180 Using this data, draw the demand and supply curves. Label them. Draw a point at the equilibrium price and quantity. Draw an arrow at the price of 60 cents to show the shortage or surplus at that price. Label it.

In recent years fresh bagel sales have been growing at about 30% per year. Once considered an ethnic food to be eaten only by some consumers, bagels now “have become the new doughnut to bring to the office.” But one problem with bagels is that they get stale fast. In the words of Ray Lahvic, editor emeritus of Bakery Production and Marketing, “The worst thing in the world is a day-old bagel.” If a market researcher asserts that the slope of the typical consumer’s indifference curve between fresh bagels and day-old bagels is -1, would you agree with Mr. Lahvic’s statement about fresh and day-old bagels given above? Please explain. Note: Slope of the indifference curve is the marginal rate of substitution (MRS) and the MRS is defined as “How much of good A will a consumer give up to get one more unit of good B such that the total utility before and after the change in consumption of A and B is the same.”

The blue curve on the following graph represents the demand curve facing a firm that can set its own prices. Use the graph input tool to help you answer the following questions. You will not be graded on any changes you make to this graph. Note: Once you enter a value in a white field, the graph and any corresponding amounts in each grey field will change accordingly.

Let a = 8 and k = 1. Compute the equilibrium prices, quantities and profits. .
On the occasion of summer vacation, a student plans to open a milk tea shop. Before deciding to open a store, she wants to find out how profits fluctuate with fluctuations in selling prices and costs per unit of product. The selling price per cup of milk tea can range from VND 20,000.00 to VND 30,000.00 (the level of change is VND 1,000.00 each time) and the cost to make a cup of milk tea can range from VND 13,000.00 to VND 17,000.00 (the level of change is VND 500 each time). Knowing that the initial fixed cost is VND 24,000,000.00 and the number of cups of milk tea sold (Demand) depends on the selling price according to the formula: Demand = 24000 - 0.5 * Unit Price Use the two-dimensional sensitivity analysis to answer the following questions: a) What is the profit if the selling price is 23,000.00 VND and the cost per unit is 15,000.00 VND? b) How will profit change with each increase in cost of a product unit by VND 500.00 with a constant selling price of VND 25,000.00? c) What is…
