- Consider that the market for soybeans is defined by the following demand and supply equations: QD = 200 - 10P and QS = 20P - 100, where P is the price in dollars and Q measures the quantity in tons per quarter. The market is currently in equilibrium. Now consider that after much lobbying by the United Farmers Association, the government imposes a price control of $12.50 in this market, with no additional government support. 1.Given the current market environment, what is the total surplus in the market? 2.Describe the current market outcome. As the result of the government’s policy, the current market outcome is __________(efficient ? not efficient?). The quantity traded is __________(less than ? greater than ?) the quantity traded before the government intervention, and price sellers ( farmers) receive per ton is __________(equal to 10? equal to 12.50? less than 10? less than 12.50 and greater than 10?). Additionally, as a result of the government’s policy sellers seem to be…D(x)= (x-9)2 and S(x)= x2 +6x + 57 D(x) price in dollars per unit that consumers are willing to pay for x units of items and S(x) is price in dollars per unit that consumers are willing to accept for x units. FInd a) equilibrium point in ordered pair b) consumer surplus at equilibrium point c) producer surplus at ordered pairSuppose the equation of the demand curve were P=100-(Q/2). If the price of the apples were $40, then how much consumer surplus in total do consumers enjoy in the apple market? ( no diagram needed)
- As in the previous question, use the numbers and figure three to determine the producer surplus and complete your table to correspond to the remaining columns of Table 1. The table that needs to be completed is: Types of Consumers Acceptable Max Price Consumers Surplus Actual Price A $70 $30 $40 B $60 $20 $40 C $50 $10 $40 E $40 $0 $40 F $30 -$10 $40 G $20 -$20 $40 Producer Cumulative Total Surplus Producers Surplus Acceptable Minimum Price a $20 b $20 c $20 e $20 f $20 g $20D(x)=(x-8)2 and S(x)= x2+6x+20 D(x) is price in dollars per unit that consumers are willing to pay for x units of items and S(x) is price in dollars per unit that consumers are willing to accept for x units. FInd a) equilibrium point in ordered pair b) consumer surplus at equil. point c) producer surplus at ordered pairD(x)= -4/15 x + 21 and S(x)= 1/3x + 3. D(x) is price in dollars per unit that consumers are willing to pay for x units of items and S(x) is price in dollars per unit that consumers are willing to accept for x units. FInd a) equilibrium point in ordered pair b) consumer surplus at equilibrium point c) producer surplus at ordered pair
- D(x) is the price, in dollars per unit, that consumers are willing to pay for x units of an item, and S(x) is the price, in dollars per unit, that producers are willing to accept for x units. Find (a) the equilibrium point, (b) the consumer surplus at the equilibrium point, and (c) the producer surplus at the equilibrium point. D(x)=(x−9)^2, S(x)=x^2+6x+57Let D(x) =40 -4X be the proce in dollar per unit that consumer are willing to pay X unit of an item and let S(X) =6x be the price in dollar per unit producer are willing to accept for x units. The quantity x at market equilibruim is....... The consumer surplus at market equilibrium is ....Suppose the demand and supply curves for good X are both linear. The demand price for the first unit of X is $28, and the supply price for the first unit of X is $6. If the equilibrium price for good X is $16 and the equilibrium quantity of X is 24,000 units, then total consumer surplus is ________, total producer surplus is ________, and total social surplus is ________. $144,000; $120,000; $264,000 $144,000; $672,000; $384,000 $120,000; $144,000; $264,000 $28; $6; $16 $672,000; $144,000; $384,000
- With an inverse demand equation of P = 10 – 0.05Q and an inverse supply equation of P = 1 + 0.10Q: a. Derive and plot the demand and supply curves b. Calculate for Consumer Surplus, Producer Surplus and Total Surplus at the equilibrium quantitySuppose the demand & supply for the market for sweet potatoes is given by the following equations: Q_D=200-20 P & Q_S=30+30P where P is the price per lb. of sweet potatoes, Q_D is the quantity demanded for sweet potatoes and Q_S is the quantity supplied. 1.Calculate the consumer surplus at market price $4.00. 2.Calculate the producer surplus at price $4.00.Find the consumers' surplus and the producers' surplus at the equlibrium level for the given price-demand and price-supply equations. Include a graph that identifies the consumers' surplus and the producers' surplus. Round all values to the nearest integer. p=D(x)=35−0.05x; p=S(x)=15+0.05x The value of x at equilibrium is_____
