Problem 3 Squeak eClean produces commercial sanitizer used to clean tanker trucks that haul liquid food products such as milk. This sanitizer a commodity like any other and at the wholesale level, there are many domestic and foreign producers that compete vigorously. Suppose you have the following estimated market demand and supply functions for the sanitizer. Qd=248.08 +2.2Y – 0.6Pc+ 1.2 Ps − 4P Qs = 10 +2P In these equations, Q measures output in gallons per month (in 1,000's), P is the price per gallon of the sanitizer, Y is annual average household income (in 1,000's), Pc is an index of commodity prices, and Ps is the average price per gallon of other types of sanitizer. After gathering the latest data, you find that average household income is $36,400, the current level of the commodity price index is 110.6, and the average price per gallon of other types of sanitizers is $48.50. a. Find the current equilibrium price and quantity in this market. b. Find the equilibrium price and…
Answer the following for the given example (for a perfectly competitive market): Your neighbours holding a physical gathering during the pandemic (a) Does an externality exist? If so, is it positive/negative (or both) (b) Use Coase’s framework to identify the cause of the externality (c) If an externality exists, determine whether the Coase theorem applies (i.e. is it possible/feasible to assign property rights and solve the problem?). Provide reasoning. (d) If an externality exists and the Coase theorem does not apply, discuss a government/institutional solution that can mitigate the problem of externality. Provide reasoning.

Which market structure gives more consumer surplus, Cournot (simultaneous) orStackelberg (sequential)? Explain your answer.
A subsidy paid to producers will cause A) the supply curve to shift upward and create excess burden due to underproduction. B) a movement down the supply curve and create excess burden due to underproduction. C) a movement up the supply curve and create excess burden due to overproduction. D) the supply curve to shift downward and create excess burden due to overproduction.
QUESTION 8 In the above figure, the competitive (i.e. unregulated) market equilibrium quantity is? (Note #1: the x- axis is in thousands, so make sure to write out the entire number, i. e. 10 thousand as "10000") (Note #2: marginal benefit curve (MB) also represents demand)uppose the market demand for a good takes the form: Q subscript D equals 120 minus 1 fourth P and market supply takes the form: Q subscript S equals negative 30 plus 1 half P and production of each unit causes $30 in (external) damage. What is total surplus in this market? (Note: with external damages the overall benefit from a market is often referred to as "social welfare" instead of total surplus. Regardless, to answer this question subtract total external damages from consumer and producer surplus) QUESTION 8 40 40 S-MSC Price (dollars per vaccination) 20 20 30 30 50 60 10 10 MSB MB 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 Quantity (thousands of vaccinations per year) In the above figure, the competitive (i.e. unregulated) market…
DuopolyMarket for mechanical pencils can be described by the following demand schedule:Price | Number of pencils demanded$6 | 80$5 | 200$4 | 320$3 | 440$2 | 560$1 | 680$0 | 800The fixed cost is $340, while the variable cost is $0.50.d) If there were two firms on the market and they agreed to cooperate, how much would eachfirm need to produce? Follow the procedure outlined in the lecture and show that the otherfirm would prefer to deviate from the agreement.e) When the firms deviate from the agreement, there is a new optimal level of output. Showwhether the firms have an incentive to deviate from that level?f) If there were two firms on the market, what would be the price and the quantity of pencilstraded if the firms couldn’t cooperate?
consider a market for two differentiated products. demand for good 1 is d1 = 1 - p1 + 1/4p2 and demand for second is d2 = 1-p2 + 1/4p1 where p1 and p2 are prices of the goods. Suppose firm 1 produces good 1 and firm 2 produces good 2. All production costs are sunk, that is, firms supply at zero production cost. Assume that firms compete in prices. (a) Calculate the diversion ratio. b) Derive the reaction function of each firm and calculate the Nash equilibrium in prices.
Tying sales is a market practice designed to increase sales volume. A "tying sales" situation is said to occur when what happens? Select the correct answer below: 1. A customer is required to buy one product only if the customer also buys a second product. 2. Two or more products are sold as one. 3. Firms divide markets by allocating customers. 4. An existing firm reacts to a new firm by dropping prices very low until the new firm is driven out of the market.
The many identical residents of Whoville love drinking Zlurp. Each resident has the following willingness to pay for the tasty refreshment: Quantity First bottle Second bottle Third bottle Fourth bottle Fifth bottle Further bottles Willingness to Pay (Dollars) 10 8 Each Whovillian will consume The cost of producing a bottle of Zlurp is $3.50, and the competitive suppliers sell it at this price. (The supply curve is horizontal.) 6 4 2 0 Producing Zlurp creates pollution. Each bottle has an external cost of $1. Taking this additional cost into account, total surplus per person in the allocation you previously determined decreases to S Cindy Lou Who, one of the residents of Whoville, decides on her own to reduce her consumption of Zlurp by 1 bottle. Cindy's consumer surplus (ignoring the cost of pollution she experiences) is now S by S Consumption per person is now person external cost of 5 bottles and receive a consumer surplus of $ Mayor Grinch imposes a $1 tax on each bottle of Zlurp.…
