This problem continues from the previous one. On the graph the supply in the Rest of the World has shifted from Sstart to S2 and the market in the Rest of the World has moved to a new short run equilibrium at B. The price of Good A is P1 in the U.S. and P2 in the Rest of the World. Which answer choices are correct from the image bellow?
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.
Just solve questions 32-36, thanks. 28 If a legal ceiling price is set below the equilibrium price: a shortage of the product will occur a surplus of the product will occur an underground market will evolve neither the equilibrium price nor equilibrium quantity will be affected 29. To economists, the main difference between "the short run" and "the long run" is that: the law of diminishing marginal returns applies in the long run but not in the short run in the long run, all resources are variable while in the short run, at least one resource is fixed fixed costs are more important to decision making in the long run than they are in the short run in the short run all resources are fixed, while in the long run all resources are variable 30.A surplus of product will occur when price is: above equilibrium with the result that quantity demanded exceeds quantity supplied above equilibrium with the result that quantity supplied exceeds quantity demanded below equilibrium…
