- Nonearrow_forwardConsider the market for bicycles in the fictional province of Westvale. The market demand function for bicycles is given by P=300-2Q. The marginal cost curve for firms in this market is given by P=40+Q. Prices are measured in dollars. a) Under a competitive market equilibrium, what is the price of a bicycle? b) How many bicycles are produced under a competitive market equilibrium? c) Calculate consumer surplus, producer surplus, and total surplus under the competitive market equilibrium Suppose that the firms that were once competing in this market merge into one single firm, forming a monopoly. This monopoly has a marginal revenue function of P=300-4Q. d) What price does this monopolist charge? e) How many bicycles does the monopolist produce? f) Calculate consumer surplus, producer surplus, and total surplus under the monopolistic market outcome g) How much deadweight loss resulted from the creation of the monopolist?arrow_forwardGiven a demand of q = 100 – 5p and a cost of c(q) = 4q. What is the equilibrium retail price p, wholesale price w, and profits from the manufacture and sale of the product?arrow_forward
- what is the market equilibrium point (in ordered pair)arrow_forwardAssume perfect competition takes place in the market for hotel rooms. The current market equilibrium price for a standard room is RM300 per night. c. Show the loss in net benefits from hotel use resulting from the tax.arrow_forwardShow that any linear inverse supply that passes through the origin (i.e., an inverse supply with the functional form p = c Q with c > 0) has a price elasticity of supply equal to one. Show that any linear inverse supply curve with a positive intercept (i.e., having the functional form p = k + c Q with c, k > 0) must be elastic.arrow_forward
- qD = 100 – 0.5p, qS = 2p – 20 What is the price elasticity of supply? Is the situation modeled here more likely to be reflecting a short- or long-run equilibrium? Why?arrow_forwardConsider a market with the following demand curve: Q^d=1000-Yxp Assume the marginal cost of the only firm supplying this market as MC=Q/2 A.Derive an expression of elasticity of demand in terms of Y. Show your work B.Derive an expression for the slope of the isoprofit curve of this firm in terms of Y. Explain. |c.Now derive an expression for the markup chosen by this firm in terms of Y. d.What happens to the elasticity (part a) and the markup (part c) if Y goes up? What can you say about the relationship between elasticity and the markup from this observation? Explain. e.calculate the profit-maximizing quantity andarrow_forwardDetermine whether the following statements are TRUE or FALSE. Explain your answer using graphs or examples. a. If a firm has zero elasticity substitution between inputs, then the short-run cost of producing a level of output equals the long-run cost. b. For firms in a competitive market, producing a maximizing profit quantity always means minimizing cost, while the reverse is not true.arrow_forward
