The market demand and supply functions for potatoes are: QD = 2,000 - 500P and QS = 800 + 100P.

If this price floor is implemented, determine (i) how many bags of potatoes will the government be forced to buy to keep the price at $2.25; (ii) how much government will spend in total; and (iii) how much producer- and consumer -surplus changes.
