- What is the producer surplus? What is the worker surplus? Show that a competitive market equilibrium maximizes the gains from trade.Consider a free market with demand equal to Q = 800 − 10P and supply equal to Q = 10P. What is the value of consumer surplus? What is the value of producer surplus?Given the demand function P = 64 - Q and the supply function: P = 4 + ¼ Q. Determine:a. Market equilibrium price and quantityb. The size of the consumer surplusc. The amount of the producer surplus.
- In a perfectly competitive market for cheese with downward sloping demand and upward sloping supply, the equilibrium price is $12 per kilo. If the government imposes a price ceiling of $10, we can conclude that the government policy will: Select one: a. reduce the number of units sold only if demand is elastic b. decrease producer surplus and decrease total surplus c. reduce the number of units sold only if demand is inelastic d. decrease producer surplus but increase total surplus e. increase producer surplus but decrease total surplushe inverse demand function for portable electric heaters is P=220-Q and the supply function is P=20+3Q. Find the competitive equilibrium in the market of portable electric heaters (price and quantity) and represent it graphically. Compute the consumer surplus, producer surplus, and total welfare corresponding to the equilibrium found at point (a) and represent them on the graph. The government believes portable electric heaters are a very inefficient way of space heating. For this reason, it introduces a specific tax of 20 for each portable electric heater sold. Find the new quantity exchanged on the market after the introduction of the tax, the price paid by the buyers, and that received by the sellers. Compute the new consumer surplus, producer surplus, and total welfare after the introduction of the tax and represent them on the graph. Does the government’s intervention generate a loss of welfare? If yes, explain why and compute it. Use the price elasticity of demand and supply in…Given that the demand function P = 15 - 0.25Q and the supply function P = 0.2Q + 6. Determine:a.

Increase, decrease C. Decrease, increase D. Decrease, decreaseSuppose the demand for pickles on The Citadel is Qd=500-4P, and the supply is Qs=6P. Assume this market is perfectly competitive.a. On the back of the page, graph the supply and demand curves.b. Solve for the equilibrium price and quantity of tents. Show this point on your graph from part (a). c. How much consumer surplus is created in this market? How much producer surplus? d. Suppose the Council puts a tax of $5 per unit on the purchase of pickles. Write an equation showing the relationship between the price paid by consumers and the price received by producers. e. Find the new (after-tax) equilibrium quantity of pickles, price paid by consumers, and price received by producers. f. How much consumer surplus is created by this market after the tax? How much producer surplus?g. How much tax revenue is generated by this tax? How much deadweight loss does the tax cause?
