Energy-intensive industries (e.g. iron and steel) are price insensitive as it relates to energy prices. In addition, most energy production technologies have very stable cost structures as the cost is almost entirely up-front (and not operational). i.e. once a power plant is built, each kW of energy produced roughly costs the same. Which of the following would best represent this market?
The demand and supply curves for beach volleyballs are given by:
D = 80-4P
S = -2+2P
The current price is 19. How much is the excess supply or demand? Write a positive number
if you find an excess supply, and write a negative number if you find an excess demand.
(round your answer to one decimal place)
