When sold for $790.00, a certain desktop has an annual supply of 129.5 million computers and an annual demand of 155.5 million computers. When the price increases to $865.00, the annual supply increases to 147.5 million computers, and the demand drops to 134.5 million computers. NOTE: Round slope and vertical intercept to 4 decimal places and use those rounded values to the end. (a) Assuming that the supply and demand equations are linear, find the supply and demand equations. Supply Equation p = Demand Equation p = esc (Note: The equations should be in the form p = mq + b where p denotes the price (in dollars) and q denotes the quantity (in billions). The slope and y-intercept should be accurate to 4 decimal places). (b) Find the Equilibrium price and quantity. Equilibrium price p = Equilibrium quantity q = 9- F2 A (Note: The equilibrium price should be accurate to 2 decimal places and quantity should be rounded to the nearest whole number, and the equilibrium price should include a…

A local firm produces three types of Pizza, for delivery to homes in the area. The owner has completed research, to discover the demand curves for each of the three pizzas. The schedules are shown below: (Quantities are per week). Price Pizza A (Qd) Pizza B (Qd) Pizza C (Qd) 12 800 0 100 11 840 0 200 10 880 400 300 9 920 800 400 8 960 1200 500 7 1000 1600 600 6 1040 2000 700 5 1080 2400 800 Plot the three demand curves, on one graph. (It does not have to be Excel). Calculate PED for all three pizzas over the price range $9 to $10. Use the midpoint formula (see your class lecture notes.) Explain why the three PED measures are different. What change would make all three PED measures become more elastic? What about more inelastic?

When the price of a gallon of milk increases from $6 to $8, quantity demanded decreases to 27 gallons. Assuming the price elasticity of demand for milk is -0.3, what is the original quantity demanded? (assuming further that this is the point elasticity relative to the original point on the demand curve.) Please make sure you give a numerical answer with no units and/or space or period (.) or comma (,) before or after your answer. Enter your answer here

(a) Determine the equilibrium price and quantity.(b) Sketch the demand and supply functions on the same graph. Label theaxes and the intercepts clearly.
a) The demand function for a product is p = 60 3-9/15) where q is the number of units and p is the price of one unit. At what price will the demand be 15 units? How many units will be demanded if the price is $41.60?
Term used to describe demand that can be accuratelycalculated to meet the need of a production schedule,for example.
