What is the correct overall market price for 2022-2024?
Question #3. Assume that crop rent gradients for three different crops are a function of crop type and soil fertility. The rent gradient for broccoli is -.02r+3. The rent gradient for spinach is -.005r+2 and the rent gradient for wheat is -.00167r+1.
Given a farm with 600 acres, how many acres would be planted with each crop?
How would this change if the government decides to subsidize spinach production by $0.50—shifting the curve out by $0.50?
Suppose a depletable natural resource has no substitute. The resource can be extracted from the ground at a constant marginal cost. Furthermore, the marginal willingness to pay exceeds the marginal cost for the initial quantities of the resource, so it is worth extracting at least some of the resource.
In a dynamically efficient allocation over many periods, when will most of the resource be extracted (earlier periods or later periods)? Why?
At what point will the resource run out? Will the resource run out abruptly or smoothly?
Why?

- A new chemical cleaning solution is introduced to the market. Initially, the demand is QD 1,000 2P and the supply is QS = 100 + P. Determine the equilibrium price and quantity. The government then decides that no more than 300 units of this product should be sold per period, and imposes a quota at that level. How does this quota affect the equilibrium price and quantity? Show the solution using a graph and calculate the numerical answer.arrow_forwardThe Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) is holding a regular meeting to decide on its production policy. Current data shows that global demand for oil stands at 99.50 million bbl/d and global oil supplies stand at 97.1 million bbl/d including 31 million bbl/d from OPEC. In order to balance the market, which of the following decisions should the organization consider: OPEC should consider cutting its production by 2.4 million bbl/d OPEC should consider increasing its production by 2.4 million bbl/d OPEC should consider keeping its production fixed at 31 million bbl/d OPEC should consider cutting its production by 1.4 million bbl/darrow_forwardSuppose the price of rice differs by region in a country. Specifically, the price is $10, $13, $11 per hundredweight in regions A, B, and C, respectively. A and C are rural areas, and B is an urban area. All regions have the same population (same number of voters). The government considers building a railroad between regions A and B. If it plans to finance the construction by raising the sales tax rate, do you think it can be politically supported?arrow_forward
- What are public goods? How may they be reflected in house prices?arrow_forwardLast year, 1000 gallons of almond milk (a non-dairy product) were sold at a price of $10. Yet, this year, a bad harvest in California has wiped out a significant part of the almond harvest. At the same time, a larger number of people are looking to shift away from dairy products towards non- dairy alternatives. Because of these two changes, the equilibrium price will increase and change in the equilibrium quantity is unambiguous. the equilibrium price will decrease but change in the equilibrium quantity is ambiguous. the change in the equilibrium price is ambiguous, but the equilibrium quantity will increase. O the equilibrium price will increase but change in the equilibrium quantity is ambiguous.arrow_forwardA state tax on portable electronic devices causes sales of a single model of a handheld calculator to decrease from 80 to 70 per week.

This, in turn, may lead to higher prices for consumers. Alternatively, companies may seek to reduce their production costs by implementing cost-saving measures, such as switching to alternative sources of energy or reducing their energy consumption. In some cases, companies may seek government intervention, such as relaxing import controls or offering subsidies, to help them cope with the increased cost of production. Ultimately, the reaction of companies in the steel and alumina industry will depend on a range of factors, including the specific circumstances of each company, the availability of alternative sources of energy, and the actions of their competitors. An increase in the price of crude oil will increase the cost of production for the steel and alumina industry, which will increase the price of their products…arrow_forward
