Using the table, briefly (in one paragraph) explain the law of demand. 10. From the diagram you drew in (#8), find the equilibrium price and the equilibrium quantity. 11. Let's assume government sets a price ceiling at $1000. If government does not intervene in the market, the rent will (decrease, stay the same, increase). Select the correct one. 12. Why does government intervene in this market? Briefly (in one paragraph) explain. Ueins the

If a price ceiling of $6 is imposed, what are the resulting shortage and full economic price? Shortage: Full economic price: $ b. Suppose demand is D and supply is SO. If a price floor of $12 is imposed, what is the resulting surplus? What is the cost to the government of purchasing any and all unsold units? Surplus: Cost to government: $ c. Suppose demand is D and supply is so so that equilibrium price is $10. If an excise tax of $6 is imposed on this product, what happens to the equilibrium price paid by consumers? The price received by producers? The number of units sold? Fauilibrium price paid by consumers $1
