The domestic demand (Qpp) for wheat in the United States is estimated to be
QDD=1430-55P,
where the quantity of wheat is measured in millions of bushels per year. Suppose China also demands U.S. wheat (Qpc) and that its demand is given by
QDc=1920-60P.
What is the total demand for U.S. wheat, assuming the only two sources of demand are domestic and Chinese?
The total demand for U.S. wheat is
OA. Qp =3350-115P for all P.
O B. Q =3350-115P for P≤ $26 and Qp = 1920-60P for P> $26.
OC. Q=1920-60P for all P.
O D. Q =3350-115P for P ≤ $32 and Qp =1430-55P for P> $32

- Q.1. Suppose that the demand for steel in Japan is given by the equation Q's = 1200 - 4Ps + PA+ PT, where QS is the quantity of steel purchased (millions of tons per year), PS is the price of steel (yen per ton), PA is the price of aluminum (yen per ton), and PT is the price of titanium (yen per ton). The supply curve for steel is given by Q$s = 4Ps. Similarly, the demand and supply curves for aluminum and for titanium are given by Q'A = 1200 – 4PA + Ps + PT (demand curve for aluminum), Q°A = 4PA (supply curve for aluminum), Qʻr= 1200 – 4PT + Ps+ PA (demand curve for titanium), and QST = 4PT (supply curve for aluminum). a) Find the equilibrium prices of steel, aluminum, and titanium in Japan. b) Suppose that a strike in the Japanese steel industry shifts the supply curve for steel to Q°s = Ps. What does this do to the prices of steel, aluminum, and titanium? c) Suppose that growth in the Japanese beer industry, a big buyer of aluminum cans, fuels an increase in the demand for aluminum…arrow_forwardHow has the demand for the smart phones affected the demand and supply of digital cameras?

(c) What will happen to the supply of Pespi if the price of Coek increases to $6 per litre? Graph the new inverse supply carefully and indicate the new choke price. (d) Suppose instead that the price of Coek remains $4, but the price of water decreases to $1. What will happen to the supply of Pespi as a result?arrow_forward
- During the 1980s, most of the world’s supply of lysine was produced by a Japanese company named Ajinomoto. Lysine is an essential amino acid that is an important livestock feed component. At this time, the United States imported most of the world’s supply of lysine—more than 30,000 tons—to use in livestock feed at a price of $1.65 per pound. The worldwide market for lysine, however, fundamentally changed in 1991 when U.S.-based Archer Daniels Midland (ADM) began producing lysine—a move that doubled worldwide production capacity. Experts conjectured that Ajinomoto and ADM had similar cost structures and that the marginal cost of producing and distributing lysine was approximately $0.70 per pound. Despite ADM’s entry into the lysine market, suppose demand remained constant at Q = 208 − 80P (in millions of pounds). Shortly after ADM began producing lysine, the worldwide price dropped to $0.70. By 1993, however, the price of lysine shot back up to $1.65. Use the theories discussed in this…arrow_forwardConsider the demand function for processed pork in Canada, Q = 171 - 20p + 20p, + 3p, + 0.002Y where Q is the quantity of pork demanded (measured in millions of kg per year), p is the price of pork, Ph is the price of beef, Pc is the price of chicken, and Y is the income of consumers. If per capita income, Y, increases by $180 a year, then the quantity demanded changes by million kg. per year.
