The supply of liquor is described by the equation: Qs = 50P - 325 were Qs is the quantity of bottles of liquor per month. Last month, the local government repealed part of its restricting laws on the public consumption and sale of liquor. As a result of this change, the market for liquor is adjusting and the current market price is $13. (Question 8 of 8) Consider that one month after the repeal went into effect (and the market is in equilibrium), some sellers leave the liquor market. At the same time a report by state health officials about the sudden surge in the number of new alcohol poisoning among college students who are first-time drinkers, led university officials to implement harsher punishment for college students found with alcohol or…arrow_forward
- At a price of $4.69 per pound, the supply for cherries is 16,210 pounds, and the demand is 10,280 pounds. When the price drops to $4.22 per pound, the supply decreases to 10,940 pounds and the demand increases to 12,746 pounds. Assume that the price-supply and price-demand equations are linear.

- Consider two markets: the market for motorcycles and the market for pancakes. The initial equilibrium for both markets is the same, the equilibrium price is $4.50, and the equilibrium quantity is 29.0. When the price is $7.75, the quantity supplied of motorcycles is 65.0 and the quantity supplied of pancakes is 103.0. For simplicity of analysis, the demand for both goods is the same. Using the midpoint formula, calculate the elasticity of supply for pancakes. Please round to two decimal places.arrow_forwardIf the expected future price of droids increases, then: the current supply of droids will decrease. the current supply of droids will increase. the current quantity of droids supplied will decrease. the current quantity of droids supplied will increase.arrow_forwardQ.2.
