Solve and analyze the following problems. Make sure all steps are properly justified. Correctly uses mathematical notation or terminology. Interpret the solution in the context of the problem. Suppose the supply and demand equations for a logo sweatshirt in a particular week are given by the following equations:p = 0.20q + 25 (supply)p = 55 - 0.10q (demand)Find the equilibrium price and quantity. Prepare a graph of both equations and determine what each region means.
Market research has revealed the following information about the market for lamps: The demand schedule can be represented by the equation QD = 24 - 3P, where OD is the quantity demanded and P is the price. The supply schedule can be represented by the equation Os-4 + 2P, where Qs is the quantity supplied. (Show all your work). a) Sketch the demand and supply curves, carefully labeling your intercepts. b)Calculate the equilibrium price (P*) and quantity (Q*) in the market for lamps. c) If the market price was artificially set at P-$6, what kind of imbalance would this create in the market (surplus or shortage)? Of exactly how much? d) If the market price was artificially set at P-$2, what kind of imbalance would this create in the market (surplus or shortage)? Of exactly how much?
The market supply and demand equations for a given product are given by the expressions QD=200-50p QS=-40+30P a. Find the equilibrium price and Quantity b. Suppose that there is an increase in demand and supply to QD=300-50P QS=-20+30P Respectively, find the new equilibrium point. In addition to this, show the impact of change in demand and supply using axing graph.
The estimated monthly sales of Mona Lisa paint-by-number sets is given by the formula q = 95e−3p2 + p, where q is the demand in monthly sales and p is the retail price in hundreds of yen. (a) Determine the price elasticity of demand E when the retail price is set at ¥400. E = _____ Interpret your answer. The demand is going down/up by ____ % per 1% increase in price at that price level. Thus, a large price decrease/increase is advised. (b) At what price will revenue be a maximum? ____ hundred yen (c) Approximately how many paint-by-number sets will be sold per month at the price in part (b)? (Round your answer to the nearest integer.) ______ paint-by-number sets per month
The Department of Agriculture is interested in analyzing the domestic market for corn. The DA's staff economists estimate the following equations for the demand and supply curves: Qd = 1,600 - 125P Qs = 440 + 165P Quantities are measured in millions of bushels; prices are measured in dollars per bushel. a. Calculate the price elasticities of supply and demand at the equilibrium values. Is demand elastic, inelastic or unit elastic and why? Is supply elastic, inelastic or unit elastic and why? b. The government currently has a $4.50 bushel support price in place. What impact (surplus or shortage) will this support price have on the market? If the government is currently implementing a program that requires it to buy up any surpluses, how much wheat will the government buy?
National enegry security: Demand for oil (d): Qd = 60 - P Domestic supply of oil (Sd): QS = -30 + 2P (a) Calculate the self-sufficiency or autarky solution (P3, QS3 = QD5, imports = 0) in the figure above. How much is TNB? Answer: Area of triangle EFH. Graph it. Hint: Set demand = Supply and solve for the equilibrium price and quantity. You need the vertical intercept for demand and for supply to calculate CNB and PNB or TNB. Can you graph it? TNB =EFH? (b) Suppose the world price is given at Sf0 = P0 = $8.

Please calculate the total cost of providing a 50% subsidy on purchases of fruit and vegetables at farmers markets by SNAP participants. Assume that you are estimating it for the state of Connecticut with 350,000 SNAP participants. The season for farmers markets and the use of subsidies is 5 months (May-September); subsidies can only be used during this period. Based on prior studies, you know that a typical SNAP participant that attends farmers markets will purchase on average 3 lb of fruit and 2 lb of vegetables per month. Average price for vegetables is $1.5 per lb and the price elasticity of demand for vegetables among SNAP participants is -0.6. Similarly, fruit cost on average $2.5 per lb and the demand elasticity for fruit is -0.8. How much should the state of Connecticut expect to pay in total subsidies each season if only 20% of SNAP participants will attend farmers markets?
Yousuf is going to market on 8.4.2021 with 10 OMR and he purchases 5 kilograms of the product which is 2 OMR per kilogram.

Downward movement of supplier on the supply curve b. Upward movement of the supplier on the supply curve c. Rightward shift of the consumer on the demand curve d. Leftward shift of the consumer on the demand curve
Please show in excel! Problem-solving exercises: (a) Use the arc-approximation formula to calculate the price-elasticity of demand coefficient of a firm's product demand between the (quantity, price) points of (12, $20) and (18, $16). (b) Calculate the cross-price elasticity of demand coefficient of a firm's product X, given that a 10% increase in the price of its close substitute, product Y, causes the quantity demand of product X to increase by 6%. (c) Calculate the income-elasticity of demand coefficient for a product for which a 5% increase in consumers' income will increase the quantity demanded by 4%.
