The demand and supply of widgets is given below. Q is quantity, and P is price of widgets
Q = 5000 – 6P
Q = 1000 + 2P
How much is equilibrium quantity and equilibrium price (show me your work)
If there is a price control of $700 imposed by the government for widgets. What type of price control is this called? Does this type of price control cause a shortage or surplus, and how much is it.
Draw the Demand and Supply, and show the point for part a and b.

- Suppose the market demand for organic grass-fed beef is given by Q=100-2P and the supply is given by Q= P/2 (quantity is given in thousand pounds). A) Find the equilibrium price of a pound of beef and the equilibrium quantity. B) Find the consumer surplus (CS) and producer surplus (PS) at the market equilibrium point. C) How will the equilibrium change if the government imposes a price ceiling of $20/pound? D) Show this market with the price ceiling in a supply and demand graph. E) Consider that the consumers who bought the beef at $20/pound are the ones with the highest willingness to pay (scenario 1), what is the new consumer surplus (CSnew) and the new producer surplus (PSnew)? F) What is the deadweight loss (DWL) after the price ceiling in scenario 1?
