Assume the market for headbands is characterized by a downward sloping demand curve and an upward sloping supply curve. Suppose there is an improvement in technology for producing headbands. Which of the following would occur? A C E The total surplus (sum of producer and consumer surplus) would increase B The change in equilibrium price would cause total producer surplus to increase D The impact on total consumer surplus would be indeterminate, because of the offsetting impact of the changes in equilibrium price and quantity The supply curve would shift up, resulting in an increase in the equilibrium quantity and total producer surplus The demand curve would shift right in response to an increase in equilibrium price https://bcps.schoology.com/common-assessment-print/course/6305214264/6083116066?multipleQuestions=1&includeAnswerkey=1&includeBlank 10/33
The second column shows Shane’s marginal value schedule, which is also his demand schedule when he is offered a single price and can buy as many donuts as he wants at that price. The third column shows Miriam’s marginal cost schedule. Answer the following questions, and include a couple of sentences providing an explanation for your answer. If Miriam can charge a different price for different quantities, and if she is trying to maximize her producer surplus how many donuts will she sell? Does your answer to (a.) violate our result that profit is maximized by setting the quantity where marginal revenue equals marginal cost?
