The table below gives part of the supply schedule for personal computers in the United States. Price Quantity Supplied before tech change Quantity Supplied after tech $1,100 $900 12,000 8,000 change 13,000 9,000 a) Calculate the price elasticity of supply when price rises from $900 to $1,100 using the arc elasticity formula (the midpoint method). b) Now suppose that technology changes such that at every price, 1000 more computers are supplied. Now, as prices rise from $900 to $1,100, is the elasticity of supply smaller than, larger than, or equal to the elasticity in part a)? c) Does the change in b) change the slope of the supply curve? Are slope and elasticity the same thing? Explain.arrow_forwardA1-1. Imagine that a market for a good is characterized by the following supply and demand equations: QS = –35 + 35P QD =100 – 10P where QS and QD are quantities in units and P is the price per unit. (a) Graph the supply and demand curves with quantity on the horizontal and price on the vertical axis. Be sure to calculate the P and Q intercepts for demand and the P intercept for supply. Calculate and illustrate the equilibrium price and quantity. [Hint: Show your work.] (b) Calculate both the demand and supply elasticity around the equilibrium point. [Hint: you can use either the point method or the average arc (midpoint) method.] (c) If a regulator imposes a quantity restriction by granting quotas for 60 units of output to existing producers, what is the new price and quantity traded? Does this policy create deadweight loss (DWL) in the market? Briefly explain and identify any DWL in your diagram. (d) What is the value of a unit of quota? Illustrate in your diagram.…arrow_forward

There are several kinds of government interventions that could be used to make this happen, or at least to push the car market to produce and sell more electric cars. Explain how a tax could be used for this purpose, and then explain how a subsidy could be used for this purpose.arrow_forwardSuppose that the demand and supply curves for green peas are given by QD = 10 – 8P and QS = 2P, where P is the price per pound and Q is measured in thousands of pounds. If the price per pound of peas is $0.50, the market _____, so the price will _____. has excess demand of 3,000 pounds; rise has excess supply of 1,000 pounds; fall is in equilibrium; remain unchanged has excess demand of 5,000 pounds; risearrow_forwardPrice per Unit $20 $30 $40 $50 $60 Column A (Units per year) 100 95 80 65 50 the market price to rise. Column B (Units per year) the market price to fall. 40 supply to increase. 50 60 Refer to the figure above. Suppose the columns in this table reflect demand and supply.

U.S. agricultural farmers are excited since the government announced an increase in subsidies even though the substitutes for agricultural goods that are imported have increased in demand; therefore, please illustrate by constructing a supply and demand graph, the direction in which the curves will shift and state the new equilibrium price and quantity; for example, state whether price and quantity increased, decreased, or are indeterminate. Please explain your rationale based on the determinants of demand and supply.arrow_forward17. August and François are the only sellers of sparkling water at a market in a small, rural French town.
