***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…
1. Find the equilibrium price and quantity with QD = 90 -15P and QS =-10 + 10P 2. Increase the demand function in problem 1 by 50 and calculate the new equilibrium price and quantity. Note that the new demand curve should show that the QD is 18 units greater at every price, not just the just the problem equilibrium quantity. Add 18 to the demand equation.
2. Suppose that annual demand in the U.S. market for ice cream cones can be expressed as QD = 800 + .2I - 100P, where QD is the number of cones demanded in millions of cones, I equals average monthly income in dollars, and P is price in dollars per cone. Supply can be expressed as QS = 200 + 150P (with the same units for quantity and price). A. Graph the demand and supply curves for ice cream cones, assuming that average monthly income is $2,000, and solve for the equilibrium price and quantity. B. Now assume that the average monthly income drops to $750 and supply is unchanged. Draw the new demand curve on the same graph as used in (a) above and solve for the new equilibrium price and quantity. How would you describe the shift in demand intuitively?
