1. Consider the market for soybeans in the United States. Suppose that market demand for soybeans can be represented by P = 70-12Q. In 2023, supply could be represented by MC = 5Q-15. a. (10 Points) What was the equilibrium price and quantity in 2023? What is Consumer and Producer Surplus in 2023? b. (5 Points) Suppose there is a "bumper crop" in 2024 and supply increases to MC = 5Q-23.5. What will be the equilibrium price and quantity in 2024?

Assume that the markets for sugar cane, rum, and whiskey are initially in equilibrium (i.e., supply equals demand in each case). Assume further that a good harvest impacts the world’s sugar cane crop. Sugar cane is a principal ingredient in rum, but it is not an ingredient in whiskey. Rum and whiskey are substitutes for consumption.  1. Discuss the effect on the markets for each of the three products if the government implements a price restriction in the sugar cane market with the aim of protecting the farmers. 2. How will this impact the revenues for sugar growers, rum producers, and whiskey producers?

Question 3 The current price of a good is $25, and 100 units are demanded at that price. The price elasticity of demand for the good is-2. When the price of the good drops by 4 percent to $24, consumer surplus will increase or decrease? By how much?

Q20 In Canada we have government intervention in the dairy market in the form of quotas on milk production. What are two predicted economic effects of this policy? a. A redistribution of income from dairy farmers to consumers of dairy products and an increase in the total amount of economic surplus in the dairy market. b. An equitable distribution of income between dairy farmers and consumers of dairy products and a reduction in the total amount of economic surplus in the dairy market. c. A redistribution of income from consumers of dairy products to dairy farmers and a reduction in deadweight loss in the dairy market. d. A redistribution of income from dairy farmers to consumers of dairy products and a reduction in the total amount of economic surplus in the dairy market. e. A redistribution of income from consumers of dairy products to dairy farmers and a reduction in the total amount of economic surplus in the dairy market. Clear my choice

1. Provide a real life example of when you experienced consumer surplus and explain why this is a good example of consumer surplus. Hint: Purchasing something on sale or negotiating a lower price does not necessarily mean consumer surplus was experienced. 75 - 100 words.

1. Suppose market demand for gasoline is given by QD = 60-2P where QD is quantity demanded and P is the market price. Market supply is given by Qs = 4P where Qs is quantity supplied and P is the market price. (a) Find the equilibrium price and quantity in this market. (b) What is the consumer surplus and producer surplus? (c) Suppose that the government imposes a $3 tax on the good, to be included in the posted price (i.e. tax paid by suppliers). What is new equilibrium posted price? How much of that price do producers keep? What is the new market equilibrium quantity? What is the change in surplus for consumers? What is the change in surplus for producers?

QUESTION 46 46. Given that the U.S. government mandates the use of ethanol as a partial substitute for gasoline (10% by volume), and that ethanol manufactured in the U.S. is made from corn, what will happen if the government eliminates the price support for corn? a) Demand for ethanol will increase. b) Demand for ethanol will decrease. c) Supply of ethanol will increase. d) Supply of ethanol will decrease. e) Both (a) and (c)

The most likely result of this action is that: a. b. C. d. there will now be an excess supply of bourbon the market price of bourbon will remain at $5.00 a bottle. the demand curve for bourbon will shift outward. there will now be an excess demand for bourbon.

6. Producer surplus and price changes The following graph plots a supply curve (orange line) for a group of recent graduates looking to sell used air fryers. Each seller has only a single used air fryer available for sale. Think of each rectangular area beneath the supply curve as the "cost," or minimum price that each seller is willing to accept. Assume that anyone who has a cost that equals the market price is willing to sell their used air fryer.
