Question: The supply and demand for 9-volt batteries are given by QD = 230 - 10P and QS = 30P-10, where P is the price per four-pack and Q measures the number of four-packs. a. Wh... The supply and demand for 9-volt batteries are given by QD=230-10P and QS = 30P-10, where P is the price per four-pack and Q measures the number of four-packs. a. What are the levels of consumer and producer surplus at the equilibrium price? b. Suppose that a hurricane causes widespread blackouts, shifting the demand curve for 9-volt batteries outward, with the new demand curve equal to QD=690-10P. If the government sets a price ceiling equal to the pre-hurricane price (the old equilibrium price), what is the level of consumer surplus? c. If the government did not impose the price ceiling, what would consumer surplus equal? Are consumers better off with the price ceiling?

2. Exercise 8.2 Howard Bowen is a large-scale cotton farmer. The land and machinery he owns has a current market value of $12 million. Bowen owes his local bank $9 million. Last year Bowen sold $11 million worth of cotton. His variable operating costs were $9 million; accounting depreciation was $40,000, although the actual decline in value of Bowen's machinery was $60,000 last year. Bowen paid himself a salary of $50,000, which is not considered part of his variable operating costs. Interest on his bank loan was $400,000. If Bowen worked for another farmer or a local manufacturer, his annual income would be about $30,000. Bowen can invest any funds that would be derived if the farm were sold to earn 10% annually. (Ignore taxes.) What is Bowen's accounting profit? O $1,560,000 O $1,550,000 O $1,220,000.00 O $1,210,000.00 What is Bowen's economic profit? O $1,550,000 O $1,210,000.00 O $1,560,000 O $1,220,000.00

Refer to the diagram below: Price (per bushel) $10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 X 2 4 8 10 12 Quantity of wheat (thousands of bushels per period) 6 (a) Suppose that the government introduced a new migration policy which has led to an increase in the number of consumers in the market. Due to this policy change, there is an increase in demand of 2,000 bushels at each price, what would be the new equilibrium price and quantity of bushels? Show the impact on the graph above and label it A. (b) Shortly after the announcement of the new immigration policy, there was a wild fire that destroyed some of the wheat harvesting plains. This led to a decrease in supply of 2,000 bushels at each price at the same time. What would be the new equilibrium price and quantity of bushels (Hint: your starting equilibrium should be A)? Show the impact on the graph above and label it B.
