The following graph illustrates the market for walnuts. It plots the monthly supply of walnuts and the monthly demand for walnuts. Suppose stretch
of unseasonably good weather occurs, allowing walnut growers to produce more walnuts per hectare.
Show the effect this shock has on the market for walnuts by shifting the demand curve, supply curve, or both.
Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back
to its original position, just drag it a little farther.

A number of the growers are concerned about the price decrease initiated by the stretch of favorable weather conditions, as they believe it will lead to
decreased revenue. Using elasticities, you will be able to determine whether this price change will lead to a rise or fall in…

Assume two famous kurta brands; A1Suits selling kurtas made with natural pure cotton while K2Kaprey with polyester.
An article is published giving advantages and recommendation of wearing pure cotton clothing material during a heat wave. What will be the short-run and the long-run impact of the research article?
In support of your answer apply the comparative statics analysis, using clearly labelled two panel diagrams of demand and supply model, along-with brief explanations for:
a. Short-run market changes due to ‘Rationing function of Price’. b. Long-run market analysis of ‘Guiding or Allocating function of Price’.

- true or false - explain in short be supported with an economic model. If the demand for and supply of a product both increases, the equilibrium quantity of the product must also increase. If the demand for a product decreases and the supply of the product increases, the equilibrium price of the product may increase or decrease, depending on whether supply or demand has shifted more. Assume that there is a fixed supply in the market. A higher price will result from a change in demand brought about by a rise in income.arrow_forwardConsider the market for minivans. For each of the following events, identify which of the determinants of supply and/or demand is affected and indicate an increase or decrease in supply and/or demand. Illustrate the shift of a supply curve and/or demand curve in each of the following cases. Describe the change in the equilibrium. 1. People decide to have more children 2. A strike by steelworkers raises steel prices 3. Engineers develop new automated machinery for the production of minivans 4. The price of sports utility vehicles rises. 5.

Make sure to clearly label the graph. Also, clearly state how the drought is a supplyshifter in the given case. Clearly state what would happen to the equilibrium price and quantity of corn in the given economy.arrow_forward

Also, because building materials like steel beams, concrete slabs, pipes, logs, etc. are large and very heavy, it’s common for companies to use oversized flatbed fleet trucks or tractor trailer fleet trucks to ship them around the country.

During the holiday season, the wage rate for passenger train engineers increases,and more consumers are using rail transportation to join family and friends for the holidays.

Sell as much natural gas as possible now and less in the future—reflected by a movement down the current supply curve.C. Sell as much natural gas as possible now and less in the future—reflected by a movement up the current supply curve.D.
