7. Consumer surplus for an individual and a market The following graph shows Shen's weekly demand for apple pie, represented by the blue line. Point A represents a point along his weekly demand. The market price of apple pie is $3.00 per slice, as shown by the horizontal black line. PRICE (Dollars per slice) PRICE (Dollars per slice) 7.50 0.75 6.00 4.50 3.75 7.50 3.00 6.75 2.25 6.00 1.50 5.25 Demand 0.75 4.50 0 3.75 3.00 2.25 1.50 0.75 0 From the previous graph, you can tell that Shen is willing to pay S for his 8th slice of apple pie each week. Since he has to pay only $3.00 per slice, the consumer surplus he gains from the 8th slice of apple pie is S 5.25 Demand Suppose the price of apple pie were to fall to $2.25 per slice. At this lower price, Shen would receive a consumer surplus of S slice of apple pie he buys.

13. Suppose over the next several years the level of income and wealth rises in the state of Florida.   For the housing market this would mean:   An increase in the quantity of houses demanded, rising prices and an increase in supply. An increase in the demand for houses, rising prices and an increase in quantity supplied. An increase in the quantity of houses demanded shortages and higher prices. A decrease in the quantity of houses supplied as demand increases. Price gouging in this market would be rampant.
