TIMBER CRUNCH The demand and the supply of timber for construction in Australia are given by QD =120 - 20P QS = 40P We assume the market is perfectly competitive. 1) Calculate the price elasticity of demand and price elasticity of supply at the equilibrium price and quantity. 2) Due to Covid lockdowns, interstate transportation becomes difficult. Meanwhile, construction work is viewed as essential and therefore not affected by lockdowns. Use a demand and supply graph to explain how the lockdowns affect the equilibrium price and quantity. 3) Bushfires are more likely to happen in summer. If a bushfire happens again in the coming summer, how would you expect it to affect the timber market?

Consider that the new more eco-friendly coal briquettes for heating stove fire costs 3,750₮ per bag of 25kg. Yet the same amount of raw unprocessed coal costs 2,000₮ for about the same 25kg bag. As you can imagine people will keep buying the cheaper raw coal for the winter cold months. a. Please draw side-by side the supply and demand diagrams of a Raw coal and New processed coal bags. Mark all the necessary points and units that we normally mark. b. What kind of an externality would you say this RAW coal has and how would it impact the bystanders?c. We can't precisely measure the cost of the actual externality from raw coal, but we can almost certainly assume that at least the amount of price difference is the externality cost.
