- How can an economy adjust back to equilibrium? Is it by having an equal amount of demand and supply?arrow_forwardplease only do: if you can teach explain each partarrow_forwardAnswer the questions on the right based on the following scenario: Pearl Market Scenario: You go on vacation for 14 days to an island in the middle of the ocean that is known for selling beautiful pearls. On day 1 of your vacation, you buy 10 small pearls for $10 from the 100 pearls available. The next day, there is a storm that destroys the boats in the area, including the pearl divers’ boats. The day you leave, you return to the pearl market and ask to buy 1 more pearl. a. Do you think that the price of pearls will increase, decrease or stay the same? Why? b. Draw 1 diagram showing the supply and demand for pearls on the island before and after the storm. On the same diagram, show the shift of the supply or demand curve to the proper location. c. Use your diagram and principles of supply and demand to explain your estimated price for pearls on the last day of your vacation.arrow_forward
- Is there any graph that can show about the Malthusian Theory of the decreasing in supply food that will increase the population?arrow_forwardThe graph below is Mendork's production possibility curve for the only two goods that it produces: quirks and quarks. Quantity of Quarks 800 700 600 500 400 300 200 100 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 Quantity of Quirks Note: If the image does not appear, right-click on the placeholder and choose Show picture or View image. If Mendork's current production is at point A, what is the (approximate) cost of producing one more quirk? a) 50 quarks B b) 100 quarks c) 200 quarks d) One more quark e) 25 quarksarrow_forwardSuppose there are two goods A and B in the economy and these two goods are complementary of each other. At the beginning, the market for each good is in equilibrium. How will an increase in the production costs of B affect both markets? Which properties does the new equilibrium have? Use appropriate diagrams in your ans.arrow_forward
- I was given a word problem but I want to bullet point reasons or answers to the question, rather than one single answer. 1. Assume in a simple example that two changes occur simultaneously in an economy which produces “Good X”. The economic changes that occur in the market are: 1) An increase in the number of seller/producers in the economy who make “Good X”, and 2) An increase in the number of consumers who purchase “Good X”. Assume that this is a competitive market, what will happen to the market selling price and the market quantity that is bought and sold in the market for “Good X”?arrow_forwardAssume that Smith deposits $150 in currency into her checking account in the XYZ Bank. Later that same day, Jones negotiates a loan for $900 at the same bank. In what direction and by what amount has the supply of money changed? Multiple Choice A) increased by $900 B) decreased by $150 C) increased by $1,050 D) increased by $150arrow_forwardThe price of Good X increases by 25 percent, causing the quantity consumed of Good Y to decrease by 10 percent. If everything else is held constant in the economy, we can say with certainty that Good X and Good Y are: substitutes, normal, complementary or inferior?arrow_forward
- What is changes in equilibrium? take an examplearrow_forwardExplain briefly the following three principles of economics by Mankiew. 1- Rational people think at margin . 2- Society faces a short run trade of between inflation and unemployment. 3- Governments can sometimes improve market outcomearrow_forwardSuppose that turmoil overseas increases gasoline prices in cities across the United States. Using the urban model with agricultural land, answer the following questions. Assume that all individuals are identical, that the supply-demand equilibrium holds, and that the city’s population must fit within its boundary. What happens to the building heights near the CBD? Do they become taller? Smaller? And why? What happens to dwelling sizes near the CBD? Do they become taller? Smaller? And why? What happens to population density in the suburbs? Increase? Decrease? Why?arrow_forward
