Here are two demand curves and two supply curves for gallons of gasoline in the month of May in a small town in Maine. Some of the data are missing.Using the table, answer the following questions: Quantities Demanded Quantities Supplied Price D1 D2 S1 S2 $7.00 5,000 7,500 9,000 9,500 6,000 8,000 8,000 9,000 5.00 8,500 8,500 9,000 5,000 Use the following facts to fill in the missing data in the table. If demand is D1 and supply is S1, the equilibrium quantity is 7,000 gallons per month. When demand is D2 and supply is S1, the equilibrium price is $6.00 per gallon. When demand is D2 and supply is S1, there is an excess demand of 4,000 gallons per month at a price of $4.00 per gallon. If demand is D1 and supply is S2, the equilibrium quantity is 8,000 gallons per month. b. Compare the two equilibriums: In the first,…arrow_forward
- no handwritten notesarrow_forwardAssume that the equilibrium price is at $3 and equilibrium quantity is at 40 units of a product. Then, imagine that suddenly any of determinants of demand, other than the price of the product, caused demand to increase while, at the same time, one of determinants of supply, other than the price of the product, caused supply to decrease. TASK: First, draw the demand and supply graph to show the original equilibrium price at $3 and equilibrium quantity at 40 units. Second pick ONE specific DETERMINANT of DEMAND and ONE specific DETERMINANT of SUPPLY Third, show in the graph what it looked like if demand increased and supply decreased (select where you think that the new price and quantity would change to), what the new equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity would be, after both changes in demand and supply occurred. Fourth, in a couple of words, write down what would be YOUR new equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity.

- I am stuck on this problem, I don't know where to start. Could you give a step by step on how to figure this problem out. Thank you. There is an increase in demand of 100 units at each price and a decrease in supply of 100 units at each price. In the graph below, draw the new demand and supply lines. Instructions: Use the graphing tools, 'D2', 'S2', to plot the new demand and supply lines on the figure and then use the grid lines to determine the new equilibrium price and quantity.arrow_forwardThe following table shows the annual demand and supply in the market for shoes in Miami. Price (Dollars per pair of shoes) 20 40 60 80 PRICE (Dollars per pair of shoes) 120 100 20 On the following graph, plot the demand for shoes using the blue point (circle symbol). Next, plot the supply of shoes using the orange point (square symbol). Finally, use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price and quantity in the market for shoes. Note: Plot your points in the order in which you would like them connected. Line segments will connect the points automatically. 0 100 0 Quantity Demanded (Pairs of shoes) 1,100 900 800 200 600 500 400 600 800 QUANTITY (Pairs of shoes) Quantity Supplied (Pairs of shoes) 200 400 500 900 1000 1,200 1200 O Demand Supply Equilibriumarrow_forwardSuppose both the demand for olives and the supply of olives decline by equal amounts over some time period.

- TTT 1. The table below displays information pertaining to the market for milk: TABLE 1 Cartons Per Day Price (dollars per carton) Quantity Demanded Quantity Supplied 1.00 200 110 1.25 175 130 1.50 150 150 1.75 125 170 2.00 100 190 In this space, please illustrate the market for milk, with both the supply curve and demand curve graphed on the same graph, making sure you label each component and put the correct variables on the x- and y-axis. The equilibrium price for milk is $ and the equilibrium quantity of milk produced and sold in the market is a. cartons. b. If the market price of milk suddenly rises to $1.75, the milk market will suddenly be faced with a or excess which means the quantity is greater than the quantity Numerically, the excess equals cartons of milk. с. Now assume better feeds increase milk production. When this happens within the above milk market, the curve will shift to the which will the price of milk and the quantity of milk produced and sold.arrow_forwardPlease provide an explanation so I can do it my own.
