Suppose that there are two companies that produce mobile phones: Brand A and Brand B.
Explain how each of the following events will affect the market for Brand A phones by
using supply and demand diagrams (mention the changes in equilibrium price and quantity):
a) Price of Brand B phones increased.
b) Brand A's factory's production capacity dropped because of a shortage in raw
materials supplies.
c) Brand A has developed a new technology that allows to assemble the phone's
components in a cheaper way.

- Suppose you learned that the price elasticity of demand for wheat is 0.7 between the current price for wheat and a price 2 higher per bushel. Do you think that farmers collectively would try to reduce the supply of wheat and drive the price up 2 higher per bushel? Explain your answer. Assuming that they would try to reduce supply, what problems might they have in actually doing so?arrow_forward(Calculating Price Elasticity of Demand) Suppose that 50 units of a good are demanded at a price of Si per unit. A reduction in price to $0.20 results in an increase in quantity demanded to 70 units. Using the midpoint formula, show that these data yield a price elasticity of 0.25. By what percentage would a 10 percent rise in the price reduce the quantity demanded, assuming price elasticity remains constant along the demand curve?arrow_forward
