Effects of rent control Rent controls force landlords to price apartments below the equilibrium price level. An immediate effect is a shortage (excess demand) of apartments, because the quantity of apartments demanded is greater than the quantity supplied at the regulated price. When cities prevent landlords from charging market rents, which of the following are common long-run outcomes? Check all that apply. O Landlords earn lower profits from renting housing units, but the rent charged has no effect on either the quantity or quality of rental units. O The future supply of rental housing units increases. O Black markets develop. O The quality of rental housing units falls.
- Only typed answer Each firm in a competitive market has a cost function of C(q) = q − q 2 + q 3 . The market has an unlimited number of potential firms. The market demand function is Q = 24 − P. a. Determine the long-run equilibrium price, the quantity per firm, the market quantity, and the number of the firms. b. How do these values change if a tax of $1 per unit is collected from each firm? c. How would these values change if instead of a tax the government implements a price floor of 30?Use the graph below to answer the questions.

- Assume a perfectly competitive market. Draw the average total cost, average variable cost,marginal cost, and marginal revenue curves for a good. Determine the profit-maximizing levelof output given that the price of the good is above the minimum average variable cost butbelow the minimum average total cost. Is the profit at the chosen price point positive,zero, 0r negative? Shade the area representing profit. Assume a monopoly market. Draw the average total cost, marginal cost, marginal revenue,and demand curves for a good. At what price will the monopolist sell? What is theprofit-maximizing level of output at this price? Shade the area representing profit.Figure 12-6 Price (dollars per pound) Market 3 price 2 0 10 20 30 MC ATC D=MR 40 Quantity (thousands of pounds) Figure 12-6 shows the demand, marginal cost (MC) and average total cost (ATC) curves for Jason's House of Apples.
