The market supply and demand equations for a given product are given by the expressions QD=200-50p QS=-40+30P a. Find the equilibrium price and Quantity b. Suppose that there is an increase in demand and supply to QD=300-50P QS=-20+30P Respectively, find the new equilibrium point. In addition to this, show the impact of change in demand and supply using axing graph.
Indicate the impact if any on demand, supply, price and quantity. In academic year 20/21, the university of the west indies mandates that all students must take Principle of Economics as a core requirement for their majors. Concurrently, the university bookshop made their order for principle of economics textbook based on the number of registered students in the last academic year 19/20.
Suppose that the demand per ounce of a rare type of chocolate, Qd is represented by the following equation, where P is the price of chocolate and Qd is the quantity of chocolate sold: Qd = 2200 - 24P The supply of chocolate, Qs, is represented by the equation: Qs = -500 + 75P Find the equilibrium price and quantity of chocolate sold. Give your answers to two decimals. Price $ ? Quantity: ?
Explain the impact of the following conditions on the market demand and price of given products and sub-parts aswell: The impact of decrease in income of a household on the market demand and market equilibrium price of an inferior product. The impact of an increase in the price of Yamaha motorcycles on the demand and market price of Honda motorcycles. The impact of Covid-19 on the market demand for hand sanitizer. Note: Just explain justify your answers theoretically. There is no need to provide graphical analysis.
Due to Covid-19, it is expected that the US economy will contract quickly going into a recession for a (hopefully) short period of time, and as a result of that, incomes will fall. If so, what happens in the markets for inferior goods? Answer choices: Prices and quantities both rise. Prices and quantities both fall. Prices rise, quantities fall. Prices fall, quantities rise. Prices rise and quantities remain unchanged. Prices remain unchanged and quantities fall.

The price of oil is currently over $80 per barrel and has been as high as $90 per barrel after Saudi Arabia and a couple of oter OPEC countries reduced output this year. The demand for oil is expected to increase by 1 million barely per day over the next year according to the International Energy Agency but OPEC+ has been unclear about its intentions of increasing oil supplies. a. If OPEC+ increases its production by million barrels per day, we can unambiguously say that the equilibrium price will fall, and the equilibrium quantity will rise.
