- The demand and supply functions for basic cable TV in the local market are given as: QD = 200,000 – 4,000P QS =20,000 + 2,000P. If the government implements a price ceiling of $15 on the price of basic cable service, what will be the quantity of cable service that will prevail in the market? Is there a surplus or a shortage, and if so, how much? With the new government policy, is there a deadweight loss in the market? If so, why is there a deadweight loss and how much is the deadweight loss? Are consumers better off or worse off with this policy? Are producers better off or worse off? Is society on the whole better off or worse off?Consider a market where supply and demand are given by QXS = −12 + PX and QXd = 93 − 2PX. Suppose the government imposes a price floor of $44, and agrees to purchase and discard any and all units consumers do not buy at the floor price of $44 per unit. Instructions: Enter your responses rounded to the nearest penny (two decimal places). a. Determine the cost to the government of buying firms’ unsold units.b. Compute the lost social welfare (deadweight loss) that stems from the $44 price floor.Consider a market where supply and demand are given by QS =P-20 and QD =130-2P, respectively. Suppose the government imposes a price ceiling of £44. Calculate the deadweight loss as a result of this price ceiling.
- Consider a competitive market where the market demand and the market sup- ply are given, respectively, by QD=500−2P and QS=2P (a) Find the competitive equilibrium price and quantity. (b) Suppose the government wants to help the producers by imposing a price floor of pf = 150. Assuming that the producers correctly anticipate the demand at price p f , find the consumer surplus, producer surplus, and the deadweight loss. (c) Suppose, instead of using a price floor, the government decides to help the producers by imposing a per unit tax t in the market and then giving all the tax collected to the producers. What is the value of t that will make the producers equally well off as in part (b)? What is the resulting deadweight loss?The market for jelly has a supply and demand given by the following: QD=200–10p QS=20p–100 (a) What is the consumer surplus and producer surplus? (b) Suppose to aid families, the government instates a price ceiling of 9. What is the resulting CS and PS. What is the deadweight loss? (c) Unhappy with the resulting shortages of jelly, the government removes the price ceiling and replaces it with a subsidy to consumers. What subsidy would be required to lower the price consumers pay to 9? (d) What is the resulting CS, PS from the subsidy? (e) How much does the subsidy cost the government? What is the DWL?Consider a free market with demand equal to QQ = 900 − 10PP and supply equal to QQ = 20PP. Now the government imposes a $15 per unit subsidy on the production of the good. What is the consumersurplus now? The producer surplus? Why is there a deadweight loss associated with the subsidy, and whatis the size of this loss?
- Consider a market where supply and demand are given by QXS = −16 + PX and QXd = 83 − 2PX. Suppose the government imposes a price floor of $36, and agrees to purchase and discard any and all units consumers do not buy at the floor price of $36 per unit. Instructions: Enter your responses rounded to the nearest penny (two decimal places). a. Determine the cost to the government of buying firms’ unsold units.$ b. Compute the lost social welfare (deadweight loss) that stems from the $36 price floor.$Consider a market where supply and demand are given by Qx s = -16+Px and Qd=92-2Px suppose the gouvernment imposes a price floor of $40, and agrees to purchase any and all units consumers do not buy at the floor price of $40 per unit. determine the cost to the gouvernment of buying firm's unsold units. Compoute the lost social welfare (deadweight loss) that stems from the $40 price floorConsider a market where supply and demand are given by QXS = -14 + PX and QXd = 82 - 2PX. Suppose the government imposes a price floor of $37, and agrees to purchase and discard any and all units consumers do not buy at the floor price of $37 per unit. Instructions: Enter your responses rounded to the nearest penny (two decimal places). a. Determine the cost to the government of buying firms’ unsold units.$ b.

- The market demand and supply functions for potatoes are: QD = 2,000 - 500P and QS = 800 + 100P. To help potato producers, the government is considering legislation that would put a price floor at $2.25 per bag. 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.i.If the market conditions for a given good are specified by Qd=60,000-500P and Qs=500P, If government decides to set the price at 40 current units, what policy is this? What are the implications of this action? ii.If the government imposes a tax of Gh¢20 on the good above, establish the new equilibrium price and quantity and deduce the burden of tax on consumer and producer and identify the nature of commodity in questionThe Australian Government believes that maintaining a viable airline industry is essential to the long term sustainability of the country’s tourism - so in order to support them in a post covid travel environment they are proposing to subsidise the purchase of tickets. The demand for tickets is given by Qd = 5000 − 10P and the supply is Qs = 2000 + 10P. (a) Solve for the equilibrium price and quantity in this market, and calculate producer and consumer surplus. (b) Suppose the government offers a $100 per ticket as a subsidy, recalculate the equilibrium price and quantity to reflect the subsidy. What will be the price paid by ticket buyers be and the price received by sellers? (c) How much will the subsidy program cost the government and what will be its net effect on the total surplus?
