Assume competitive markets (prices are given) and that the demand is more elastic than supply. Which of the following statements is correct? A. We do not have sufficient information to infer which surplus is greater B. Consumer surplus will be larger than producer surplustyping C. Consumer surplus will be exactly the same as producer surplus D. Consumer surplus will be smaller than producer surplus. Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion
In a given town, demand for fish and supply of fish is given by P = 3,955 - 6 * Q and P = 1,012 + 24 * Q respectively. Here P and Q denote are fish price and fish quantity (in tons). What percentage of the total surplus goes to producers if the fish market is competitive?
Consider a market with a perfectly elastic demand curve at p∗ = 1, 763 and a perfectly inelastic supply curve at q∗ = 452. What is the Consumer Surplus? What is the Producer Surplus?
Suppose that the demand for broccoli is given by: Q=1000-5P where Q is quantity per year measured in hundreds of bushels and P is the price in dollars per hundred bushels. The long-run supply curve for broccoli is given by: Q=4P-80 Show that the equilibrium quantity here is Q= 400. At this output, what is the equilibrium price? How much in total is spent on broccoli? What is consumer surplus at this equilibrium? What is producer surplus at this equilibrium? How much in total consumer and producer surplus would be lost if Q= 300 instead of Q= 400? Show how the allocation between suppliers and demanders of the loss of total consumer and producer surplus described in part (b) depends on the price at which broccoli is sold. How would the loss be shared if P= 140? How about if P= 95? What would be the total loss of consumer and producer surplus if Q= 450 rather than Q= 400? Show that the size of this total loss also is independent of the price at which the broccoli is sold. Now suppose the…
