Subpart (a):
Explanation of Solution
Figure 1 shows the changes in quantity demanded of tablet.
In Figure 1, the vertical axis measures the price of tablet and horizontal axis measures the quantity
Concept introduction:
Supply: The term supply represent how much an seller or a market can offer.
Demand: Consumer's desire and willingness to pay a price for a specific good or service which satisfies his wants.
Supply curve: Supply curve shows the relationship between product price and quantity that a seller is willing to supply.
Demand curve: Demand curve shows the demand for goods and services varies with changes in its price.
Subpart (b):
Graphical illustration of changes in Cranberry production.
Subpart (b):
Explanation of Solution
Figure 2 shows the changes in quantity demanded of Cranberry.
In Figure 2, the vertical axis measures cranberries price per barrel and horizontal axis measures millions of barrels cranberries per year. The upward sloping curve is the supply curve and downward sloping curve is the demand curve. The demand is decreased by even more than the supply decreases due to the changes in price.
Concept introduction:
Supply: The term supply represent how much a seller or a market can offer at the given price level during the period of time.

Subpart (c):
Graphical illustration of changes in demand of San Jose office space.
Subpart (c):
Explanation of Solution
Figure 3 shows the changes in demanded of San Jose office space.
In Figure 3, the vertical axis measures the rent of San Jose office space and horizontal axis measures the demand of office space. Downward sloping curve is the demand curve at different t rate of rate. After high tech boom, the demand and rent were high (D1999). In 2001 march, the economy face a recession. After that, the demand for San Jose office space reduces. Thus, the demand curve is shifted to backward from D1999 to D2001.in 2005 the employment level from San Jose were rising slowly and rents began to rise again. This change may shift the demand curve from D2001 to D2005.

Subpart (d):
Graphical illustration of changes in demand of bread.
Subpart (d):
Explanation of Solution
Figure 4 shows the changes in demanded curve of bread.
In Figure 4, the vertical axis measures the price of bread and horizontal axis measures the quantity demanded of bread. Downward sloping curve is the demand curve of bread and upward sloping curve is the supply curve of the bread. P1 is eth regulated price and P2 is the unregulated price. Before economic reform, the price of bread is below the equilibrium level. After the implementation of economic reform, the quantity demanded of bread fell down.

Demand curve: Demand curve shows the demand for goods and services varies with changes in its price.
Subpart (e):
Graphical illustration of changes in equilibrium.
Subpart (e):
Explanation of Solution
Figure 5 shows the changes in equilibrium point.
In Figure 5, the vertical axis of both part of figure measures the price of steel per tons and horizontal axis measure metric tons of steel. Upward sloping curve shows the supply curve of the steel and downward sloping curve is the demand curve of the steel. The part “A” of the figure shows the equilibrium without any import of steel. Decrease in import duty increases the import of steel. It shifts the supply curve to rightward. Thus, the equilibrium point is shifted (shown in part “B” of the figure). The gap between “a” and “b” is the quantity imported.

- Before the Civil War, the South traded with the North and with England. The South sold cotton and bought manufactured goods and food. During the war, one of President Lincoln's first actions was a blockade of the ports in the South to prevent this trade. The South had to increase its production of munitions and food. Draw a point to show the South's production point prior to the Civil War. Label it 1. Draw a point to show the South's consumption point prior to the Civil War. Label it 2. During the war, the South's factors of production were severely depleted and its production possibilities decreased. Draw a curve that shows the effects of the Civil War on the South's PPF. Label it PPF₁. Draw a point to show the South's production point during the Civil War. Label it 3. During the war, the South did not engage in trade.

For the downstream mill, the marginal profitability of producing boxes declines with volume. For example, the first unit of boxes increases earnings by $10, the second by $9, the third by $8, and so on, until the tenth unit increases profit by just $1. The cost the upstream mill incurs for producing enough paper (one "unit" of paper) to make one unit of boxes is $3.50. Assume the two mills operate as separate profit centers, and the paper mill sets the price of paper. It follows that the marginal profitability of boxes represents the highest price that the box division would be willing to pay the paper division for boxes.. Furthermore, assume that fixed costs are $0 for the paper mill. The following table summarizes the quantity, total revenue, and marginal costs from the perspective of the paper mill for selling paper to the box mill at various prices. In the following table, fill in the marginal revenue, total cost, and total…arrow_forwardPlanes frequently push back from the gate on time, but then wait 2 feet away from the gate until it is time to queue up for takeoff. This increases fuel consumption and increases the time that passengers must sit in a cramped plane awaiting takeoff. The following table shows the pay schedule for the flight crew. Pay Per diem Holding pay per hour Flight Attendant Captain First Officer $3 $3 $3 $20 $20 $20 Hourly wage (after push back) $38 $184 $50 Per diem pay indicates how much the flight crew earns once it checks into the airport. Holding pay indicates how much the flight crew earns after it loads the plane. Hourly wage indicates how much the flight crew earns after it pushes back from the gate and turns on the beacon. In this scenario, who does not have an incentive to push back from the gate as early as possible? Check all that apply.
