Assuming hypothetical equilibrium in Demand/Supply Model of Apples, illustrate impact of following events:Suppose the Doctors recommend eating Apples every morning. The Monsoon rains adversely affect the Apple Harvest. The government announces increase in Wages of workers. The price of petrol in the market comes down. Consumers Income falls during government imposed Lockdowns due to health concerns. Given below is the Supply Schedule of Nestle Milk per liter:Price of Milk per liter (in Rs) 100 200 300 400Quantity Supplied per day in liters (in 1000s) 100 200 300 400Use the above data to illustrate the Supply Curve in a graph with complete labels. Assume Rs. 200 is the original price of milk per liter and 200,000 liters is the original quantity of supply. Suppose the price rises from Rs. 200 to Rs. 300, what will be the amount of Quantity Supplied?Illustrate the impact of (C) on the graph. Is this a movement along the supply curve or shift of the curve?

Plant milk sales in the United States totaled $2.5 billion at the end of 2020, accounting for 15% of all retail sales of milk, and 35% of the larger market for plant-based foods. By the end of 2026, Olson said, sales of dairy alternatives are projected to make up 30% of all milk sales. Much of that growth, Purcell said, will come from small-batch producers. Illustrate and explain the effect of the increased use of plant-based milk on (i) the dairy market and (ii) the overall milk market.
Consider the market for rubber. suppose a massive forest fire causes 50% of the world’s supply of rubber to be destroyed. First, depict what happens in the market for rubber. Then, depict what happens in the market for tires (where rubber is an input). Last, depict what happens in the market for cars, where tires are an input. What happened to the price of cars? Now, suppose that in order combat this event, the government announces that starting in three months (i.e. in the future), the government will give a $1000 rebate on purchases of new cars (i.e. the price of cars will decrease in the future). What happens in the market for new cars today? What happens in the market for used cars today? Finally, what is the net effect of everything that occurred on new/used cars equilibrium price and quantity (Hint: for one of these market’s variables, the net effect will be ambiguous)?

There are 40 people living in a village each having preference over apples andshirts represented by U(a,b) = a1/3s2/3, where a and s are amount of applesin pounds and shirts consumed, respectively. The price of a shirt is $10. Each villager has $300 income. Apples are supplied to the village by a farmer, whose supply function is S(pa) = 1000pa.Part 1What is the equilibrium price of apples? How many pounds of apples does eachvillager consume?Part 2What is the aggregate net consumer surplus at the equilibrium?Part 3What is the price elasticity of demand at the equilibrium?Part b1Suppose 50 more people move in to the village. What is the equilibrium pricenow? Part b2Are consumers better or worse off now? Why? If a consumer is worse off, byhow much additional income he/she needs to be compensated in order to be aswell off as in Part a.
Consider an economy with two people, Li and Carlo, and two commodities, clothing and food. Currently, Li and Carlo would both be willing to give up 0.5 articles of clothing for one piece of food. Further, the workers in town can, in a given day, produce either 10 pieces of clothing or 50 pieces of food. Is the allocation of resources in this economy Pareto efficient? If not, should there be more clothing or more food? (Let the MRS=MUfood/MUclothing=the value of food in terms of clothing=how much clothing we would trade for 1 more food)
