Suppose goods X and Y are complimentary products. Which of the following are correct with respect to the competitive market model of supply and demand? (check all that apply) an increase in the price of good Y will cause an increase in demand for good X and reduce the quantity demanded for good Y an increase in the price of good Y will cause a decrease in demand for good X and reduce the quantity demanded for good Y a decrease in the price of good X will increase the quantity demanded for good X and cause a decrease in demand for good Y a decrease in the price of good X will increase the quantity demanded for good X and cause an increase in demand for good Y
Which of the following will not shift the supply curve to the left? a) an increase in wages paid to workers b) a decrease in the number of sellers C) an increase in the cost of production d) a decrease in cost of production
Market in equilibrium: consider a market for electric vehicles (EVS), where the equilibrium price (P*) is $30,000 per vehicle, and the equilibrium quantity (Q*) is 10,000 vehicles per year. draw the initial supply and demand graph. P qor Q Events: Due to advancements in battery technology, the cost of producing EVs decreases significantly. Additionally, governments around the world introduce stricter regulations on emissions from gasoline-powered vehicles, leading to an increased demand for EVs. Explain how both the supply and demand curves would be affected. Draw the new supply and demand curves on your graph (in red) and predict the changes in equilibrium price and quantity. Demand: Supply: +
Suppose that the cost of crude oil decreases from $25 to $20 for each barrel of heating oil produced. Assuming that the rest of the determinants of supply and demand for heating oil remain equal to their initial values, the market will eventually reach a new equilibrium price of per barrel.
Please explain as detail as possible, thanks.
Assume your theater will not sell a ticket for less than 80% of regular price $$$ (my assigned price is 145), but will sell one ticket for one performance at 80% of regular price plus $5 and two performances for 80% of regular price plus $10 for each ticket, for small numbers of movies, x, the theater’s supply curve is modeled by p=S(x). Write down your supply function. Find the equilibrium point. (make sure to provide both x and y coordinates and label it on the graph)
2) Imagine that you have started a firm and own the patent for a new technology that allows for the 3D printing of food. This is a huge nutritional breakthrough since the printer can provide nutritional food for years. Since you are the first with this technology and have patented it, your firm is the only firm that can produce and sell this type of printer. There are no close substitutes for your printer and your data indicates weekly demand is given by the equation Qa = 9000 - 2P. a) Your production analysis indicates that your firm's cost function is C(Q) = F +Q². Illustrate the market, 2 showing the inverse demand curve, the MR curve and the MC curve. Then, compute and illustrate your firm's profit maximizing price and quantity of the printer. How low must the fixed cost be to ensure that the firm is making positive profits? Make sure to clearly label all relevant curves. Finally, what is the markup on the printer (measure markup in the following way: Price/MC)? b) Redraw the…
Prove the law of supply, which states that when the market price increases, the profit-maximizing sales quantity for a price-taking firm never decreases.
