For each of the determinants of demand in Equation 2.1, identify an example illustrating the effect on the demand for hybrid gasoline-electric vehicles such as the Toyota Prius. Then do the same for each of the determinants of supply in Equation 2.2. In each instance, would equilibrium market price increase or decrease? Consider substitutes such as plug-in hybrids, the Nissan Leaf and Chevy Volt, and complements such as gasoline and lithium ion laptop computer batteries.
***Just the last paragraph of the question please*** A ski resort in the White Mountains has conducted market and cost studies, and has determined that the demand and supply for ski-lift tickets at their resort are represented by: Qd=1750 - 5P - 8PR + 2PB; Qs=50 + 20P - 3PE. In these equations, P represents the price of a full-day lift ticket, in dollars per ticket; PR is the price of a ski-rental package; PB is the price of a pint of beer at the local pub in the nearby town; and PE is the price per megawatt hour for the electricity used to run the chair lifts on the ski slopes. Based on the equations above, determine whether the beer in the local pub is a substitute or complement to skiing. Briefly explain your answer. Suppose the price of a ski-rental package is $20, the price of a pint of beer is $5, and the price of electricity is $150 per megawatt hour. Calculate equilibrium price and quantity of ski-lift tickets. Now consider the more general relationship between the price of…
The estimated monthly sales of Mona Lisa paint-by-number sets is given by the formula q = 95e−3p2 + p, where q is the demand in monthly sales and p is the retail price in hundreds of yen. (a) Determine the price elasticity of demand E when the retail price is set at ¥400. E = _____ Interpret your answer. The demand is going down/up by ____ % per 1% increase in price at that price level. Thus, a large price decrease/increase is advised. (b) At what price will revenue be a maximum? ____ hundred yen (c) Approximately how many paint-by-number sets will be sold per month at the price in part (b)? (Round your answer to the nearest integer.) ______ paint-by-number sets per month
Market research has revealed the following information about the market for lamps: The demand schedule can be represented by the equation QD = 24 - 3P, where OD is the quantity demanded and P is the price. The supply schedule can be represented by the equation Os-4 + 2P, where Qs is the quantity supplied. (Show all your work). a) Sketch the demand and supply curves, carefully labeling your intercepts. b)Calculate the equilibrium price (P*) and quantity (Q*) in the market for lamps. c) If the market price was artificially set at P-$6, what kind of imbalance would this create in the market (surplus or shortage)? Of exactly how much? d) If the market price was artificially set at P-$2, what kind of imbalance would this create in the market (surplus or shortage)? Of exactly how much?
Continuos income streams(total value, present value,future value) Consumers surplus and producers surplus A national study of U.S. colleges results in a demand equation q=20000-2p where q is the enrollment at a public college or university and p is the average annual tuition (plus fees) it charges. Officials at ESU have developed a policy to guide the number of students it will accept at a tuition level of p dollars. It is summarized in the equation q=7,500=0.5p. find the quilibruim tuition price p. find the consumers surplus for price p. find the producers surplus for pruce p. Find the total social gain.
Smooth Sailing, Inc., has estimated the demand function for its sailboats (quantity purchased annually) as follows: QD= 89,830-40PS+20Px+15Py+2I+0.001A+10W Where, QD = quantity purchased, PS = the price of smooth sailing sailboats, PX = the price of Company X’s sailboat, PY = the price of Company Y’s motorboat, I = per capita income in dollars, A = dollars spent on advertising, and W = number of favorable days of weather in the southern region of the United States. Suppose that PS = $9,000, PX = $9,500, PY = $10,000, I = $15,000, A = $170,000, and W = 160. Find the price elasticity of demand at that point. Is elastic, inelastic, or unitary elastic in part (a)? Justify?

The market for soda beverages demand is QD = 90-20P and supply is QS = 30P-10. Price is measured in dollars per one-gallon bottle and quantity in millions of one-gallon bottles a) Find the equilibrium quantity and price in the market for soda and compute Consumer Surplus and Producer Surplus when the market is in equilibrium. As that problem noted, sweetened beverages contribute to the over consumption of high-fructose corn syrup with negative consequences for public health. Suppose that each extra one-gallon bottle of soda sold in the market imposes a $1 external cost on state and federal governments that see Medicare and Medicaid diabetes-related expenditure increase. b) What is the total external cost that the soda beverages industry imposes on the government? Suppose that a $1 per bottle tax is imposed on sellers of soda beverages. What is the new equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity in the market for soda beverages? c) How much consumer surplus and how much producer surplus…
