Suppose the supply of apples in a competitive market decreases due to unfavorable weather conditions. As a result, there will be A. a surplus of apples at the existing actual price as the supply curve shifts to the rightB. a shortage of apples at the existing actual price as the supply curve shifts to the leftC. upward pressure on price that will move it to a new equilibrium that is above the initial equilibrium price and elimination of a shortage as the quantity moves to equilibriumD. downward pressure on price as a shortage is eliminated.E.

When a shortage of a good is present due to a price ceiling, the amount supplied will be greater than the amount demanded. the quality of the good will generally improve. O non-price factors, such as discrimination or waiting in line, will play a greater role in the allocation of the good. O the demand for the product will increase and, thereby, eliminate the shortage.
12 . Problems and Applications Q10 A market is described by the following supply and demand curves: QSQS = = 3P3P QDQD = = 400−P400−P The equilibrium price is and the equilibrium quantity is . Suppose the government imposes a price ceiling of $80. This price ceiling is , and the market price will be . The quantity supplied will be , and the quantity demanded will be . Therefore, a price ceiling of $80 will result in . Suppose the government imposes a price floor of $80. This price floor is , and the market price will be . The quantity supplied will be and the quantity demanded will be . Therefore, a price floor of $80 will result in . Instead of a price control, the government levies a tax on producers of $40. As a result, the new supply curve is: QSQS = = 3(P−40)3P−40 With this tax, the market price will be , the quantity supplied will be , and the quantity demanded will be . The passage…
7 The "law of demand" states that changes in demand are related to changes opposite way in its supply. none of the answers given is true. demand are related directly to changes in supply. O the quantity demanded of a good are in opposite way with its price. the quantity demanded of a good are not related to changes in the quantity supplied.
Refer to the table above. If demand increased by 4 units at each price , what would the new equilibrium price and quantity be?
