What does our supply and demand analysis implie?arrow_forwardWhich economic condition would most likely encourage the creation of a black market for a certain good? A rise in inflation decreases consumer purchasing power for the good. A surge in manufacturing costs increases the price of the good. A rise in popularity increases consumer demand for the good. A government price ceiling creates a shortage of the good.arrow_forward

The government is considering a minimum price policy to increase producer surplus. Explain by means of graphs how the introduction of a price floor can increase producer surplus. Find the (optimal) price floor that maximizes producer surplus.arrow_forward
- In an attempt to support beef farmers, the Japanese government raised the minimum price for beef in 2008. If the market equilibrium price was below the government’s minimum price, then the government’s minimum price is an example of a Binding price floor. Non-binding price floor. Binding price ceiling. Non-binding price ceiling. Classify the below scenarios as efficient, inefficient, or impossible: The Japanese government sets a minimum price for beef, resulting in a deviation from the market equilibrium. Canada and Japan specialize in the production of goods according to their comparative advantages and then trade. Canada’s overall production fell in 2020 due to widespread unemployment caused by the pandemic. ] The price of certain fresh fruits and vegetables in both Canada and Japan rose in March of last year as the pandemic made international trade in fresh fruits and vegetables difficult (assume no price controls).arrow_forwardEconomics A competitive market with demandQ = 560 - 5P and supply P = 10 + Q is in equilibrium.

This time the government imposes a price floor of $45. That is, the price must be either at or above $45.a. Calculate the new equilibrium price and quantity.b.
