- If a price floor benefits producers, why does a price floor reduce social surplus?The demand for ice cream is given by QD = 200 – 20P and the supply of ice cream is given by QS = - 100 + 40P. The quantity is measure in gallons of ice cream. - Calculate the consumer surplus, producer surplus, and total surplus at the market equilibrium. Now assume that the government decides to set the price of ice cream at $ 7.00 per gallon. Would this create a surplus or a shortage in the ice cream market? Calculate the surplus (or shortage). Calculate the consumer surplus, producer surplus, and total surplus at the new $ 7.00 price. What happened to each after the intervention of the government in the ice cream market? Calculate the deadweight loss after the imposition of the $ 7.00 price. Compare this to the deadweight loss associated with the market equilibrium. In your own words, explain why this deadweight loss is a measure of the inefficiency in the market created by the government intervention.Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion In an effort to curb planetary obesity, authorities levy a tax of $20 per unit of lunar candy. How much of this tax is borne by the sellers? That is, by how much does the seller’s price change? demand - q = 600 − 2p supply - q = 2p − 400 Equilibrium price - 250 Equilibrium Quantity- 100 Use the equation Ps= Pd+ Tax to solve ANSWER IS 10

At $3.60?Concerned about the political fallout from rising gas prices, suppose that the U.S. government imposes a price ceiling of $3.00 a gallon on gasoline. Explain how the market for gasoline would react to this price ceiling if a global shortage of oil sent the equilibrium price of gasoline to $3.50 a gallon. Would the U.S. gasoline market be efficient?If the government sets a price ceiling of $25, how much dead weight will be created? (a) $500 (b) $250 (c) $350 (d) $700 If the government sets a price ceiling at $45, the market will experience: (a) a shortage of 25 units. (b) a surplus of 25 units. (c) a shortage of 60 units. (d) a surplus of 60 units. (e) neither a shortage nor a surplus.
