- For a given commodity and pure competition, the number of units produced and the price per unit are determined as the coordinates of the point of intersection of the supply and demand curves. Given the demand curve p = 90 - and the supply curve p = 50+, find the consumer surplus and the producer surplus. 10 consumer surplus $ producer surplus $ Illustrate by sketching the supply and demand curves and identifying the surpluses as areas.

Glass production involves melting sand, soda ash, and limestone at a very high temperature. Consider the following factors that a glass manufacturer faces, and determine whether each represents a technological constraint or a market constraint: Items (7 items) (Drag and drop into the appropriate area below) No more items Categories Market constraint Hourly wage of workers in the industry The number of other firms selling similar products The number of buyers in the market Cost per pound of limestone Cost per pound of sand Cost per hour of keeping the furnace at the required temperature Technology constraint Maximum amount of output per hour that can be producedarrow_forwardSuppose a perfectly competitive market with 5 firms in the market. Each firm has supply characterized by P(q)=MC(q)=2+q/2. If 160 units were transacted in total, what was the market price?arrow_forward
- All markets that are not perfectly competitive have which of the following characteristics? Each firm's marginal revenue is always equal to the market price. The product that each firm sells has no close substitutes. Firms in the market have some control over price, that is, each firm faces a downward sloping demand curve. Firms will produce a level of output where marginal cost equals the minimum level of average cost.arrow_forwardPrice-searcher firms have some control over the price they charge, subject to the constraint of the demand curve they face have no control over the price they charge, just like a perfectly competitive firm have some control over the price they charge as long as they enjoy government regulation control price as long as they are producing where MC-MRarrow_forwardy = 20 – 3x2 y = 2x2 Where y = price and x = quantity Demand Supply %3D Assume perfect competition, find consumer's surplus and producer's surplus.arrow_forward
