The demand for rice is given by Q d=20-p and the supply is Q s=3p-20. a. Draw the demand and supply functions. Find the equilibrium quantity and price, and show them on the graph. b. Suppose due to drought the supply changes to 3p-30. The supply remains the same. Draw the new supply function on the same graph, and find the new equilibrium price and quantity. Has the demand increased or decreased? How did the equilibrium price and quantity change compared to part a.?

Given that the demand is Qd=90-3P and supply is Qs=P-10, compute the new equilibrium price and quantity in the market and indicate values on the graph
Assuming you are the manager of the travel department of a large corporation and your sales department has high consumption for air travel. Assume further that the president of the corporation wants you to reduce the travel expenditures in the next year. How will you curb the air travel? Using Demand and Supply Analysis, how will you predict the airfare, given the following assumptions? A number of new, small airlines have recently entered the industry and others are expected to enter next year? Broadband internet videoconferencing is becoming a popular, cost-effective alternative to business travel for many corporations? The trend is expected to accelerate next year as telecommunications firms begin cutting prices on teleconferencing rates.
Harding Enterprises has developed a new product called the “Quest Simulator (QS)”. The market demand for this product is given as follows: Q = 240 - 4P. If QS is priced at $40, what is the point price elasticity of demand? Is demand elastic or inelastic? What is the maximum amount that consumers are willing to pay for the quantity demanded at the price of $40? (hint: it includes both the total expenditures and the consumer surplus) If the price of QS is increased slightly from $40, what will happen to the total expenditure on the product? What will happen to the consumer surplus? Note:- Do not provide handwritten solution. Maintain accuracy and quality in your answer. Take care of plagiarism. Answer completely. You will get up vote for sure.
If the demand function for a commodity is ?2+4?=1600p2+4q=1600 and the supply function is given by the equation 300−?2+2?=0300−p2+2q=0, find the equilibrium quantity and equilibrium price.
In the following question you are asked to determine, other things equal, the effects of a given change in a determinant of demand or supply for product X upon (1) the demand (D) for, or supply (S) of, X; (2) the equilibrium price (P) of X; and (3) the equilibrium quantity (Q) of X. Consumer expectations that the price of X will rise sharply in the future will Multiple Choice increase D, decrease P, and increase Q. increase S, increase P, and increase Q. decrease S, increase P, and increase Q. increase D, increase P, and increase Q.
Suppose the National Institutes of Health publishes a study finding that coffee drinking increases the probability of getting colon cancer. How do you imagine this will affect the market for coffee? Why? Which determinant of demand or supply is being affected? Show graphically with before- and after-curves on the same axes. How will this change the equilibrium price and quantity of coffee? Explain your reasoning.

From the graph, it is clear that the demand for gasoline is relatively (unit elastic, elastic, inelastic) and the supply for gasoline is relatively (unit elastic, elastic, inelastic). This is an example of a (positive or negative) supply shock and, referencing the graph below, is best represented by the shift (from curve 1 to curve 2 or from curve 2 to curve 1). If there's a price-gouging law in effect preventing gas stations from raising prices, then there will be an excess (supply, or demand) of _____ million gallons of gas. Suppose the government wants to alleviate the market imbalance. The best policy solution is to impose (import tariffs, production subsidies, import quotas, or purchasing limits) and the (cost or revenue) would be $______ million.
