- Green et al. (2005) estmate the supply and demand curves for Californa processod tomatoes. The supply function is: \[ \ln \left(Q_{s}\right)=0.200+0.550 \ln (p) \] whereQis the quantify of processing tomatoes in milions of tons per year andpis the price in dollars per ton. The demand function is: \[ \ln \left(Q_{d}\right)=2600-0.200 \ln (p)+0.150 \ln \left(p_{1}\right) . \] wherep1is the price of tornato paste (which is what processing tomatoes are used to produce) in dollars per ton. Supposept=$119Determine how the equilerium price and quantity of processing tomatees change if the price of tomato pasise tails by16%. If the price of tomato paste fals by18%, then the equaborium price will by 5 (Enter a numene response using a real number rounded to two decimal places)(a) Due to the increase in the demand for video games, the equilibrium price of video games increases by 10 percent, and the equilibrium quantity increases by 5 percent.

- I need help with finding equilibrium point on this question? a retailer will buy 45 radios fom a wholesaler if the price is $10 each but only 20 if the price is $60. the wholesaler will supply 35 radios at $30 each and 70 radios at $50 each. assuming the supply and demand functions are linear, find the market equilibrium point. I started with using the equation for a line and moved on to demand equation, how do I find out the supply functions? Do I plug in the supply number as (P1,Q1) and (P2,Q2) and if they come out equal is that the equilibrium point or is there something I am missing?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.: Let the Market Demand curve for soybeans be given by the following equation: Q=100000 -10000P where Q = the quantity of soybeans in kilograms P = the price of soybeans in dollars per kilogram. Supply: Let the Market Supply curve for soybeans be given by the equation: Q= -5000+5000P Graph the Demand Curve on a sheet of paper. Be sure to label the axes. What is the slope of the Demand Curve? Is it positive or negative? Why? What is the intercept? Note that in order to calculate the geometrically correct intercept and slope you probably want to rewrite the equation so that P is expressed in terms of Q, and then interpret the coefficients. Equilibrium: Graph the Demand and Supply curves together. Label all parts of the graph. Using algebra, solve for the equilibrium price and quantity of the soybeans. Consumer Surplus: The Consumer Surplus (CS) is the triangular area under the demand curve and above the equilibrium…
- Hello. This is a microeconomics question pertaining to the price elasticity of demand. The question is: If the price of a good rises from $8.50 to $9.50, and the quantity sold increases from 1.2 billion to 1.4 billion (i.e. BOTH price and quantity increase), then we know that total revenue will increase. Therefore, what would you ESTIMATE the elasticity to be? Not looking for formal calculation, but just an intuitive answer. Second part of question is what assumptions or provisos would you offer about your estimate of elasticity? Thank you for any help.Johnson's Household Products has a division that produces two types of toothpaste: a regular toothpaste and a whitening tooth paste. The demand equations that relate the prices, p and q (in dollars per thousand units), to the quantities demanded weekly, x and y (in units of a thousand), of the regular toothpaste and the whitening toothpaste are given by p=3000-20 x-10 yp=3000−20x−10y and q=4000-10 x-30 yq=4000−10x−30y respectively. The fixed cost attributed to the division is $20,000/week, and the cost for producing 1000 tubes of regular and 1000 tubes of whitening toothpaste is$400 and $500, respectively. a. What is the weekly total revenue function R(x, y)? b. What is the weekly total cost function C(x, y)? c. What is the weekly profit function P(x, y)? d. How many tubes of regular and whitening toothpaste should be produced weekly to maximize the division's profit? What is the maximum weekly profit?Refer to the company that you proposed in the previous question. For each scenario below, use a supply and demand analysis to make a prediction regarding both the equilibrium price and quantity for your good or service. That is, for each part, tell me whether you expect the equilibrium price of your product to rise or fall AND whether you expect equilibrium quantity to rise or fall. Also include in your explanation which curve is shifting and which shifter variable is affected. a) Your customers’ incomes increase. Be sure to note whether the good or service you are providing is a normal good or an inferior good. b. The minimum wage is raised in your area, and you must pay your employees more. (Assume you have employees for this scenario, even if that was not part of your initial plan.) c. A firm that offers the same good or service moves into town. d. Your customers expect the price of your good or service to fall in the future. e. The price of a good or service that…

Given that Y = $100, pm = $30 and pc = $30, use Excel to calculate quantity demanded for p = $10 to p = $80 in $5 increments. Using Excel’s spreadsheet Find Qd = ________ when P=$30. Find Qd = ________ when P=$45. Now, Y increases to $120. Re-calculate the demand schedule and find Qd = ________ when P=$20. Let Y = $100 again, but pm increases to $40.
