Question 3 The market demand and supply functions for cotton are: QD =10–0.04PandQS =38P–20. Calculate the consumer and producer surplus. To assist cotton farmers, suppose a subsidy of R0.10 a unit is implemented. Calculate the new level of consumer and producer surplus. Did the increase in consumer and producer surplus exceed the increased government spending necessary to finance the subsidy?

Please answer parts c, d and e only Andy owns a valuable postage stamp he values at 1,000 dollars. Betty wants to add this stamp to her collection and is willing to pay 1,200 dollars for it. By email, Andy and Betty reach an agreement that Andy will sell Betty this rare stamp for 1,100 dollars. Christine contacts Andy and offers to pay 1.500 to Andy for the stamp because Christine values this stamp at 1,800 dollars. (a) What surplus amount was generated by the original email contract? Why is this amount suboptimal? (b) Andy contacts Betty by email and advises her that he wants a higher price from her because Christine has offered 1,500 dollars for the stamp. Instead of renegotiation, Betty tells Andy that she will be seeking specific performance, a court order that Andy perform the original 1,100 dollar contract. How will specific performance affect the allocation and redistribution of surplus among Andy, Betty and Christine? If transaction costs = 0, would there be a renegotiated…
In an unregulated, competitive market we could calculate consumer surplus if we knew the equations representing supply and demand. For this problem assume that supply and demand are as follows: Supply P = 4 + 0.116Q Demand P = 25 - 0.10Q where P represents unit price in dollars and Q represents the number of units sold each year. Calculate the annual value of aggregate consumer surplus.
The market demand and supply functions for milk are: QD = 2,000 - 500P and QS = 800 + 100P. To help milk producers, the Department of Agriculture is considering legislation that would put a price floor at R2.25 per unit. a) Calculate the equilibrium price and quantity that would prevail without the price floor.[1] b) Calculate producer and consumer surplus at this equilibrium. c) Provide a rough sketch of the information calculated in (a) and (b). d) If this price floor is implemented, how many surplus units of milk are being produced? e) How much would government need to spend to purchase the surplus units? f) What is the change in consumer and producer surplus due to the price floor? g) When the government regulates the price of a good to be no lower than some minimum level. Can such a minimum price make producers as a whole worse off? Explain.
The market for high-quality, one-hour impressions of Cher can be described using the demand and supply equations listed below. Graph this market, and determine 1) the market clearing price (P), 2) the market clearing quantity, and 3) total economic surplus when the market clearing price is charged. QD = 5000 – 100P QS = -1000 + 50P
Consider that the market for soybeans is defined by the following demand and supply equations: QD = 200 - 10P and QS = 20P - 100, where P is the price in dollars and Q measures the quantity in tons per quarter. The market is currently in equilibrium. Now consider that after much lobbying by the United Farmers Association, the government imposes a price control of $12.50 in this market, with no additional government support. 1.Given the current market environment, what is the total surplus in the market? 2.Describe the current market outcome. As the result of the government’s policy, the current market outcome is __________(efficient ? not efficient?). The quantity traded is __________(less than ? greater than ?) the quantity traded before the government intervention, and price sellers ( farmers) receive per ton is __________(equal to 10? equal to 12.50? less than 10? less than 12.50 and greater than 10?). Additionally, as a result of the government’s policy sellers seem to be…
