This problem involves solving demand and supply equations together to determine price and quantity. a. Consider a demand curve of the form QD=-2P+20, where QD is the quantity demanded of a good and P is the price of the good. Graph this demand curve. Also draw a graph of the supply curve Qs =2P-4, where Qs is the quantity supplied. Be sure to put P on the vertical axis and Q on the horizontal axis. Assume that all the Qs and Ps are nonnegative for parts a, b, and c. At what values of P and Q do these curves intersect-that is, where does QD = Qs ? b. Now, suppose at each price that individuals demand four more units of output-that the demand curve shifts to QD - 2P+24. Graph this new demand curve. At what values of P and Q does the new demand curve intersect the old supply curve-that is, where does QD = Qs ? c. Now finally, suppose the supply curve shifts to Q's=2P-8. Graph this new supply curve. At what values of P and Q does QD=Q's? Show all working calculations and label garph with…
When graphing a market, one of the key aspects to remember is that equilibrium occurs where supply equals demand. Therefore, you can find the equilibrium price and quantity by setting the supply and demand equations equal to one another. In this case, since domestic demand is P = 11.5 - Q and domestic supply is P = 5.5 + Q, you can find the equilibrium quantity as 11.5 – Q = 5.5 + Q. Solving for Q, you get 2Q = 6 or Q = 3 (which in this case equates then to 300 million bushels). Plugging that answer back into either the supply or demand equation, you find the equilibrium price (which is 8.5 or 85 yuan) or Rent in this case). This is the equilibrium point with no trade.With the application of the world price and then the world price plus tariff, you just need to plug the established prices (6.5 for world price, 6.5 + 1.5 for the tariff) into the supply and demand equations to find the quantity supplied and the quantity demanded with or without the tariff. Recently, China placed tariffs…
Suppose that in the citrus market, while the amount of production decreased due to cold winter conditions, consumers' desire to drink citrus juice increased in order to strengthen their immunity due to the COVID-19 epidemic. In this case, how is the equilibrium price and quantity affected in the citrus market? Evaluate this with the help of the figure for the case where the supply curve shifts more than the demand curve. (Note: Do not forget to write the names of the axes while drawing the figure. Show clearly the supply-demand curve and the market equilibrium point in the first case and the supply-demand curve and equilibrium point after the shift.)

I. For the normal good, make a (Hypothetical) linear demand schedule with 7 different price points and corresponding quantity demanded for your own household. For the same normal good, make another (Hypothetical) linear demand schedule with 7 different price points and corresponding quantity demanded for your neighbor. Assuming that you and your neighbor are the only two households in the market, make a market demand schedule for the same normal good. Draw and interpret a graph to show the market demand and impact of changes in quantity demanded, if price of the same normal good decreases.

A market consists of groups of buyers and sellers of a good or service. Market equilibrium represents the price at which the quantity of goods supplied is balanced with the number of goods consumers are willing and able to buy. Consider the market for coffee: Assume first that there is a heatwave that damages a large portion of coffee beans. Describe how this would affect equilibrium in the market for coffee. Specifically, does demand or supply shift, in which direction, and what is the effect on equilibrium price and quantity? Last, extend your analysis to the long run, a period of time long enough for new coffee growers to enter the market or for existing growers to exit the market. How might equilibrium price and quantity in the market for coffee be affected when enough time is allowed for a change in the number of sellers in the market?
