(Table: Demand for Wind-Powered Turbines) Use Table: Demand for Wind-Powered Turbines. The marginal cost of producing turbines is zero, and only two firms, Rudra and Vayu, produce them. Suppose they agree to produce only 25 wind turbines each. If Rudra cheats on the agreement and produces 30 wind turbines, what is the quantity effect for Rudra?

1. Much of the demand for U.S. agricultural output comes from other countries. Suppose that the total demand for wheat in the U.S. wheat market is QDT = 3,244 – 283P, where P is the price measured in dollars per bushel and Q is the quantity of wheat expressed in millions of bushels per year. Of the total demand, total domestic demand was QD,US = 1,700 – 107P. Total supply of wheat in the U.S. market is QST = 1,944 + 207P. As a result of the ongoing trade war with China, suppose the export demand for wheat falls by 40 percent. a. U.S. farmers are concerned about this drop in export demand. How does this drop in export demand impact the market price of wheat in the U.S.? Do farmers have much reason to worry? Explain/support your answer. b. How does the reduction in export demand affect U.S. consumer surplus in the wheat market? Illustrate and explain. c. Now, suppose the U.S. government wants to buy enough wheat to raise the price to $3.50 per bushel. With the drop in export…

1. Online the timing and tailoring of prices to specific models of products is the key to successful pricing in online markets. And “Thanks to the ready availability of data in online markets, a pricing manager can easily approximate the elasticity of demands for the different products it sells online.” Assuming a 10 percent decrease in price increases sales by 28 percent, calculate the price elasticity of demand? If the wholesale price of the online product is $50 and sells at a price comparison site that charges $.50 per click and boasts a conversion rate of 5 percent (an average of 20 clicks are needed to generate a sale). What price should you charge for the product? What is the optimal markup on cost? 2. The authors assert that price sensitivity is affected by (1) product life cycles, and (2) numbers of competitors. In fact, “when the number of competing sellers doubles, a firm’s elasticity of demand is expected to double (and you should be able to verify this through…

14. Given that the U.S. government mandates the use of ethanol as a partial substitute for gasoline (10% by volume), and that ethanol manufactured in the U.S. is made from corn; how will the supply of ethanol, the demand for ethanol, as well as its equilibrium price and quantity, be affected by the following event: Development of new genetically engineered bacteria that can efficiently convert high cellulose biomass (grasses, wood chips, etc.) into ethanol. b) Demand will increase. j) Equilibrium Price and Quantity will remain unchanged. g) Equilibrium Quantity will decrease. c) Demand will decrease. d) Supply will increase. f) Equilibrium Quantity will increase. e) Supply will decrease. h) Equilibrium Price will increase. i) Equilibrium Price will decrease. a) To the extent the amount of ethanol additive in gasoline is determined by 10 government fiat, neither demand for not supply of ethanol will be affected unless the government changes its requirements.
