- Hand written solutions are strictly prohibitedarrow_forwardIn the free-market equilibrium of a perfectly competitive market, the price of the good is 90 dollars and the elasticity of demand and the elasticity of supply values are respectively Ed* = -6.6 and Es* = 4.1 Suppose the government imposes a per-unit tax equal to 10.4 payable by consumers. Calculate the estimate of the price firms charge consumers in the tax equilibrium using the elasticity values provided above. Then enter that price value below.arrow_forwardMarket demand for Mandrake roots is given by Q-273-3P. The government of imposes a per unittax of $7 and consumers pay the tax.

The bus company is not earning a profit, but according to their contract with the city, they cannot cut the number of buses on the road. They must therefore find a way to increase revenues. The bus company is considering increasing the ticket price to $1.1. The marketing department's studies indicate this price increase would reduce usage to 195 riders per day. Calculate the absolute value of the price elasticity of demand for bus tickets using the simple percentage change method. Round your answer to one decimal place. price elasticity of demand = Which of the statements is true?arrow_forward

- Student Enterprises sells two sizes of wall posters, a large 3- by 4-foot poster and a smaller 2- by 3-foot poster. The profit earned from the sale of each large poster is $3; each smaller poster earns $2. The firm, although profitable, is not large; it consists of one art student, Jan Meising, at the University of Kentucky. Because of her classroom schedule, Jan has the following weekly constraints: (1) up to three large posters can be sold, (2) up to five smaller posters can be sold, and (3) up to 10 hours can be spent on posters during the week, with each large poster requiring 2 hours of work and each smaller one taking 1 hour. With the semester almost over, Jan plans on taking a 3-month summer vacation to England and doesn’t want to leave any unfinished posters behind. Find the integer solution that will maximize her profit.arrow_forwardDemonstrate graphically the impact of a rise in electricity prices on the production of ice cream.arrow_forwardThe current competitive market equilibrium price of an agricultural commodity is $3.50. Three-hundred (300) units of the commodity are sold at this price. The government has determined that price target of $4.00 would help to stabilize prices and ensure the long- run viability of the industry. At $4.00 producers would supply 400 units of the commodity. With 400 units supplied the government would need to provide a price support of $1.67 per unit. What is the value of the change in consumer surplus associated with the new policy?
