The initial equilibrium for both markets is the same, the equilibrium price is $6.50, and the equilibrium quantity is 35.0. When the price is $9.75, the quantity supplied of waffles is 57.0 and the quantity supplied of pancakes is 101.0. For simplicity of analysis, the demand for both goods is the same. Using the midpoint formula, calculate the elasticity of supply for pancakes. Please round to two decimal places. Supply in the market for waffles isarrow_forwardRead the instructions carefully.

- Let the supply and demand functions for raspberry-flavored licorice be given by p = S(q) = q and p = D(q) = 90 - q ,where p is the price in dollars and q is the number of batches. Graph these functions on the same axes (graph the supply function as a dashed line and the demand function as a solid line). Also, find the equilibrium quantity and the equilibrium price.arrow_forwardif there is any diagram can you add it. Given the following demand and supply equations: QD = 10 - 0.8P + 5Y + A QS = -10 + P where Q = quantity (million units per month), P = price (€ per unit).

(e) Suppose a tax of €8 per unit is introduced: (i) What is the effect on market price and quantity? Explain. (ii) What is the impact of the tax on total welfare? Explain. (iii) How is the incidence of the tax shared between the consumer and the supplier? Explainarrow_forwardConsider the demand for shrimp shown in Figure 2. Suppose the current demand for shrimp is D (in black), the current price of a pound of shrimp is $10, and the current quantity demand for shrimp is 200K. Which of the following correctly describes the effect of a decrease in the price of a pound of shrimp? A) The price of a pound of shrimp falls to $3, the demand curve shifts left to D'' (red), and the quantity demand for shrimp remains at 200K pounds. B) The price of a pound of shrimp falls to $3, the demand curve remains at D (black), and the quantity demand for shrimp decreases to 150K pounds. C) The price of a pound of shrimp falls to $3, the demand curve shifts right to D' (blue), and the quantity demand for shrimp increases to 270K pounds.
