You have decided to start a snow-plowing business whereby you will offer to plow the driveways of your neighbours' homes after heavy snowfalls. You are well known by everybody in your neighbourhood, you have a plow for the front of your truck, and you think that your neighbours would rather hire you than someone they do not know. From your research, you know that homeowners are charged an average of $40 to plow their driveways after a heavy snowfall. Interestingly, a few years ago, your research tells you that homeowners were charged an average of $25 to plow their driveways after a heavy snowfall. The average price has gone up, which excites you. Apply your learning about supply and demand to this fact pattern to analyze possible reasons for the increase in price. Consider the five factors that may impact demand and the 6 factors that may impact supply. What questions do you want answered before committing to this business?
Donuts are a big thing in Portland, OR. You go into one of the many donut establishments to purchase some number of these tasty (and even vegan or gluten free if required) treats. Let's say that the first donut has higher utility for you, so you are willing to pay up to $2 for it. For the second donut you are willing to pay $1.50, the third $1, a fourth $0.50 and the fifth $0.00. This particular bakery in Portland charges an average of $1 per donut. If you are a rational buyer (which can be hard when faced with so many different delicious donuts) then how many donuts do you purchase, and how much consumer surplus (i.e., money saved compared to what you were willing to spend) do you have? O 4 donuts, $5 O 2 donuts, $5 O 3 donuts, $1.50 O 1 donut, $0.50
