DEMAND IN-CLASS WORKSHEET 3 This question examines the market for apples. You will identify a demand curve in the presence of a related good, like a substitute or complement, and demonstrate how the price of the related good shifts the demand curve you identified. The demand for apples is given as: Q- Quantity demanded for apples PA Per pound prize of an apple P8= Per pound prize banana where Q is the quantity demanded of apples, PA is the per-pound price of an apple, and PB is the per-pound price of a banana. Qd = 10-PA+ 0.5 PB, (6.00) Task 1: Suppose that the price of a pound of bananas is PB = $6.00. What is the demand curve function for apples when PB = $6.00? ad=10-PA+ 0.5 (6.00) @d=10-PA+3 1-3 ad = 7-PA Task 2: In the space below, in black ink, sketch out the demand curve for pounds of apples when the price of a pound of bananas is $6.00. Remember to place "Quantity of Apples Demanded (pounds)" on the horizontal axis and "Price (dollars)" on the vertical axis. Hint: This demand curve is a straight line. Price Lauantity

***Just the last paragraph of the question please*** A ski resort in the White Mountains has conducted market and cost studies, and has determined that the demand and supply for ski-lift tickets at their resort are represented by: Qd=1750 - 5P - 8PR + 2PB; Qs=50 + 20P - 3PE. In these equations, P represents the price of a full-day lift ticket, in dollars per ticket; PR is the price of a ski-rental package; PB is the price of a pint of beer at the local pub in the nearby town; and PE is the price per megawatt hour for the electricity used to run the chair lifts on the ski slopes. Based on the equations above, determine whether the beer in the local pub is a substitute or complement to skiing. Briefly explain your answer. Suppose the price of a ski-rental package is $20, the price of a pint of beer is $5, and the price of electricity is $150 per megawatt hour. Calculate equilibrium price and quantity of ski-lift tickets. Now consider the more general relationship between the price of…

3. The following represents demand for widgets (a fictional product): QD = -47,214 – 90P + 0.8M - 2PR where P is the price of widgets, M is income, and PR is the price of a related (fictional) good, the wodget. Supply of widgets is determined by QS = 400P – 15,550 a. Determine whether widgets are a normal or inferior good, and whether widgets and wodgets are substitutes or complements. b. Assume that M = $68,500 and PR = $53. Solve algebraically to determine the equilibrium price and quantity of widgets. c. Generate a supply/demand graph in Excel. Be sure that P is the vertical axis and Q the horizontal. Does the graphical equilibrium correspond to your algebraic equilibrium? d. Now assume two events occur: income changes such that M = $69,700 and supply conditions change such that QS = 500P – 16,340. Solve algebraically for the new equilibrium price and quantity of widgets after these two changes.
