The following graph plots a supply curve (orange line) for a group of recent graduates looking to sell used smart devices. Each seller has only a singleused smart device available for sale. Think of each rectangular area beneath the supply curve as the "cost," or minimum price that each seller iswilling to accept. Assume that anyone who has a cost that equals the market price is willing to sell their used smart device.PRICE (Dollars per used smart device)18015012090603000AndrewUStatement1YXBethロロ04Darnell张 ☐EleanorJacquesロロ234QUANTITY (Used smart devices)5Kyoko+6Region X (the purple shaded area) represents total producer surplus when the market price is equal to $area) representswhen the market priceIn the following table, indicate which statements are true or false based on the information provided on the previous graph.while Region Y (the grey shadedProducer surplus is larger when the price is $105 than when it is $75.Assuming each seller receives a positive surplus, Andrew will always receive more producer surplus than Beth.TrueIn order for Kyoko to earn a producer surplus of exactly $45 from selling a used smart device, the market price must be $FalseO

Last Saturday, Sammy supplied 100 baskets of strawberries at the farmer’s market when the equilibrium price was $3. This Saturday, he supplied 120 baskets of strawberries when the equilibrium price increased to $4. Sammy’s producer surplus did not change; it was the same this Saturday as it was last Saturday.

The lockdown around the world has caused the rapid growth in the electronic market as people have shifted from conventional methods to the new methods for imparting knowledge and staying connected. If demand and supply function are given as: Qd= 65 – 10P Qs= -35 + 15P Find the equilibrium price and quantity and show it on labeled D/S diagram. How do you interpret market equilibrium: (i) if P= Rs.6? (ii) if P=2? Show on the Demand-Supply diagram in (a), the graphical interpretation of your answer of (b)
As you can see from the article in the prior problem, "Rents Hit All-Time Highs amid Job Growth and Low Vacancy Rates," some people move out as a result of rent increases, while others are ready to pay an even higher rent. Rent control adds yet another aspect by setting a ceiling on what the rental price can ultimately rise to. The supply and demand model can be used to illustrate the mechanism that leads to all these different market outcomes. Consider the market for rental properties in Los Angeles and Orange counties in Southern California. Suppose that while average earnings increased by about 10% in Los Angeles and Orange counties, the average rent has increased by 20%. (Assume for a moment that there are no rent control regulations.) Adjust the following graph to illustrate the rent increase by either using the black point (cross symbol) or by shifting the supply and demand curves.

Find the consumers' surplus and the producers' surplus at the equilibrium price level for the given price-demand and price-supply equations. Include a graph that identifies the consumers' surplus and the producers' surplus p=D(x)=60-0001x; p= S(x)=30+0.0001x² The consumers' surplus is approximately $ (Round to the nearest dollar as needed.) The producers' surplus is approximately $ (Round to the nearest dollar as needed.) The graph of D(x)=60-0.001x is shown as a solid curve and the graph of S(x)=30+0.0001x² is shown as a dotted curve.

A1-1. Imagine that a market for a good is characterized by the following supply and demand equations: QS = –35 + 35P QD =100 – 10P where QS and QD are quantities in units and P is the price per unit. (a) Graph the supply and demand curves with quantity on the horizontal and price on the vertical axis. Be sure to calculate the P and Q intercepts for demand and the P intercept for supply. Calculate and illustrate the equilibrium price and quantity. [Hint: Show your work.] (b) Calculate both the demand and supply elasticity around the equilibrium point. [Hint: you can use either the point method or the average arc (midpoint) method.] (c) If a regulator imposes a quantity restriction by granting quotas for 60 units of output to existing producers, what is the new price and quantity traded? Does this policy create deadweight loss (DWL) in the market? Briefly explain and identify any DWL in your diagram. (d) What is the value of a unit of quota? Illustrate in your diagram.…

Anderson is willing to pay $12. Kendrick can provide the item for $10, but producing the item imposes a cost of $8 on Talib. If Anderson purchases the item from Kendrick for $11, what is the total surplus from the transaction? (Remember, do not enter the $, and enter the - if TS is negative.)

Corn is a very valuable product for which the U.S. government routinely offers subsidies. With no price support, the equilibrium price for corn is $300 per ton and the equilibrium quantity is 500 million tons per year. Suppose that the government agrees to pay farmers $350 for every ton of corn they produce and can't sell in the market. According to the farmer's market supply curve, 600 million tons per year is supplied at the price of $350 a ton, so production should increase to this amount. However, domestic users of corn cut back their purchases. Only 450 million tons a year is demanded at the price of $350 a ton, and purchases decrease to this amount. Farmers continue to produce 500 million tons of corn per year, so because they produce a greater quantity of corn than domestic buyers are willing to purchase, something must be done with the surplus. To make the price support work, the government decides to buy the surplus. a. In this example, how many million tons does the…
