There are wasteful trades because buyers are willing to pay more than sellers require for another unit. b. There are unexploited gains from trade because buyers are willing to pay more than sellers require for another unit. c. There are unexploited gains from trade because sellers reqiure more than buyers are willing to pay for another unit. d. There are wasteful trades because sellers require more than buyers are willing to pay for another unit.

PA #1: Africa Apricots & The Apricot ValleyTwo apricot orchards African Apricots and The Apricot Valley sell seasonal apricots to the market. Assume that those apricots are both grown using the same organic practices in the neighboring orchards and do not differ in taste, size, color, or any other characteristics.The market demand is described by the following function: P=AB-Q. P is the price given per one bushel of apricots (a variable), Q is the quantity demanded at each price (a variable). Assume that both orchards have marginal costs that equal C $/bushel. A=1, B=9, and C=3 are the integer numbers given to you. 1.1. Write down the Demand function substituting A, B, and C with the given integer numbers. 1.2. Utilize the Cournot Model and find the Cournot-Nash Equilibrium for this oligopoly market. Demonstrate your algebraic solution. 1.3.

In the following figure, how many pounds of sugar are sellers willing to sell at a price of $20? How much is demanded at this price? What is the buyer's willingness to pay when the quantity is 20 pounds? Is this combination of $20 per pound and a quantity of 20 pounds an equilibrium? If not, graphically identify the unexploited gains from trade. Price of sugar per pound $45 20 20 30 Supply Demand 40 Quantity of sugar (pounds)
The quantity exchanged in the market will be below the equilibrium quantity whenever the prevailing market price is not equal to equilibrium price. Is this statement true or false? Please include 2 graphs indicating the quantity exchanged in each graph
Assume that the markets for sugar cane, rum, and whiskey are initially in equilibrium (i.e., supply equals demand in each case). Assume further that a good harvest impacts the world’s sugar cane crop. Sugar cane is a principal ingredient in rum, but it is not an ingredient in whiskey. Rum and whiskey are substitutes for consumption. 1. Discuss the effect on the markets for each of the three products if the government implements a price restriction (price floor) in the sugarcane market with the aim of protecting the farmers. 2. How will this impact the revenues for sugar growers, rum producers, and whiskey producers?
