In the perfectly competitive market, if a single producer increases or decreases production while the other competitive companies remain constant, the effect on the total supply and on the market price is significant. True or false
Consider a perfectly newspaper market with identical firms, each with the usual shaped cost curves.
(1) The government imposes a (permanent) $2 per-newspaper subsidy on the market. What is the impact of the subsidy on the newspaper market? Make sure to distinguish between the short-run and the long-run impacts.
(2) If demand permanently decreases, what is the impact on the newspaper market? Make sure to distinguish between the short-run and the long-run impacts.
Dominos Pizza is trying to attract pizza delivery drivers away from Pizza Hut by offering them hourly wages above the current market wage (assumed to be $8 per hour). If the correct supply price elasticity for delivery drivers is 3.0 and Dominos wants to increase its delivery personnel by 15 percent, then they must increase their hourly wage from $8/hour to:
$8.40/hour
$8.80/hour
$9.00/hour
$9.40/hour

Zuku produces cowpea in a community where producers are able to switch back and forth between cowpea and groundnut depending on market conditions. Consequently, you were tasked by the management of Zuku and you estimated the demand function for cowpea as follows: where is the quantity of cowpea demanded in bags per month, is the average price of cowpea in Ghana Cedis, is the average price of groundnut in Ghana Cedis, and Y is the income of consumers. Assuming is initially GH¢31.00 per bag, Y is GH¢1001.50. Also that your estimated supply function for cowpea is as follows: QS = -25 + 3.5PC -1.5Pf – 0.5Pg + 0.25R Where Qs is the quantity supplied of cowpea in bags, Pc and Pg are as defined above, Pf is the price of fertilizer per bag, R is the amount of rainfall (in inches). If Pf = GH¢10, R= 40 inches and Pg= GH¢31.00 Find the resulting supply function for cowpea and determine the equilibrium price and quantity.…arrow_forward
