This problem involves solving demand and supply equations together to determine price and quantity. a. Consider a demand curve of the form QD=-2P+20, where QD is the quantity demanded of a good and P is the price of the good. Graph this demand curve. Also draw a graph of the supply curve Qs =2P-4, where Qs is the quantity supplied. Be sure to put P on the vertical axis and Q on the horizontal axis. Assume that all the Qs and Ps are nonnegative for parts a, b, and c. At what values of P and Q do these curves intersect-that is, where does QD = Qs ? b. Now, suppose at each price that individuals demand four more units of output-that the demand curve shifts to QD - 2P+24. Graph this new demand curve. At what values of P and Q does the new demand curve intersect the old supply curve-that is, where does QD = Qs ? c. Now finally, suppose the supply curve shifts to Q's=2P-8. Graph this new supply curve. At what values of P and Q does QD=Q's? Show all working calculations and label garph with…
The demand and supply functions for three (03) goods are given as follows: Dx = 100-3Px+Py+3Pz Dy = 80+Px-2Py-Pz Dz = 120+3Px-Py-4Pz Sx = -10+Px Sy = -20+3Py Sz = -30+2Pz The equilibrium prices and quantities of all three goods are: Px= 78.72 Qx= 68.72 Py= 23.66 Qy= 50.98 Pz= 60.42 Qz= 90.84 The government decides to: a) impose a 25% Tax on X b) impose a 5 Rs/unit Tax on Y c) give a 10% subsidy on good z When policies (a,b), (b,c), and (a,b,c) are jointly implemented. Analyze the impact on equilibrium prices and quantities. Which policy choice is best? Why?
