(NON-RENEWABLE RESOURCES) The demand and supply functions for oil for the current generation (in million barrels) is: Demand: Qd = 250 – 5P Supply: Qs = 5P a. Assume the current generation does not consider the future at all. Draw a supply and demand graph showing the equilibrium price (P) and quantity (Q) consumed by this generation showing clearly the numbers for P and Q. b. Assume that the next generation will have the same demand. Supply for both generations is only 250 million barrels. Interest rate (r) is 5%. Calculate the efficient allocation of resources between the two generations. c. Other things being equal, assume that the available oil supply is 200 million barrels. Calculate and graph the efficient allocation of resources been the two generations.
It's the year 2023 and you are the manager at a local brew pub here in Fayetteville. You are one of many local breweries in town; therefore, your customers have many options of where to spend their beer money. You want to increase revenue and decide to raise the price of a pint of your craft beer. The table below shows the sales of beer from week 1 and sales in week 2 after you raised price. Table 1. Sales Data for Weeks 1 and 2 Week Week 1 Week 2 Price ($ per pint) $6.00 $8.00 Sales (Pints) 2,500 1,100 Using the information in the above table, what was the change in total revenue from week 1 to week 2 when you changed your price? (enter your answer without a dollar sign and indicate a decrease in revenue, if applicable, by including a negative (-) sign)

Summarize this While the major economies slid into recession and industries suffered great losses to the COVID-19 pandemic, E-commerce sales saw explosive growth. In this rapid movement of consumers to online purchasing and delivery services, there has been a large increase in the demand for packaging materials, such as cardboard boxes. Supporting this, Parcel Shipping Index by Pitney Bowes Inc. (2020) finds global parcel volume exceeding 131 billion, a 27% increase from 2019. Corrugated cardboards are largely and versatilely used for secondary packaging of goods, up to the tertiary packaging of large packs into mass cargo (Saxon Packaging, 2020). In addition to its relatively low cost, its strength and durability are also remarkable in protecting a variety of products from damage, notably during the shipment process. Given this, businesses have been largely reliant on the material as a practical, secure, and sustainable way of containing their products from production centers to…
There is a debate about whether sterile hypodermic needles should be passed out free of charge in cities with high illegal drug use. Proponents argue that doing so will reduce the incidence of diseases, such as HIV/AIDS, that are often spread by needle sharing among drug users. Opponents believe that doing so will encourage more drug use by reducing the risks of this behavior. As an economist asked to assess the policy, you must know the following: (i) how responsive the spread of diseases like HIV/AIDS is to the price of sterile needles and (ii) how responsive drug use is to the price of sterile needles. Assuming that you know these two things, use the concepts of price elasticity of demand for sterile needles and the cross-price elasticity between drugs and sterile needles to answer the following questions. Which of the following would have to be true for this policy to be beneficial to cities? 0 The price elasticity of demand for sterile needles is relatively elastic. The…

Government-imposed taxes cause reductions in the activity that is being taxed, which has important implications for revenue collections. To understand the effect of such a tax, consider the monthly market for wine, which is shown on the following graph. 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. PRICE (Dollars per case) 50 45 40 35 30 25 20 15 10 5 0 1 Supply Demand 09 18 27 36 45 54 63 72 81 90 QUANTITY (Cases) Graph Input Tool Suppose the government imposes a $10-per-case tax on suppliers.
