(c) is the second - order sufficient condition for maximum satisfaction (d) the answer ' b' give any comparative - static information? ** Can you please help me with (d)? I know the optimal level of purchase for x* and y* is 16 and 11 respectively. Thank you.Given U = (x+2) (y+1) and Px = 4, Py + 6, and B =130: (a) write the langrangian function (b) find the optimal levels of purchase x* and y*. (c) is the second - order sufficient condition for maximum satisfaction (d) the answer :b: give any comparative - static information?Demand and supply.2. Use the process of comparative statics to analyse the following changes in market conditions for the pizza market in a capital city (Hint: You are analysing general market condition assuming a competitive market). a) There is a general increase in consumer income. [assume pizza is a normal good] b) There is a fall in the price pastry ingredients used to make pizza by 25%.Elasticity.3. You are in the food truck industry in a capital city. You discover a new way to organise the preparation of ingredients that decreases the cost and increases the number of serves per day. You believe this will enable the business to reduce the price of a serve of curry from $20 to $15. It is estimated that the price elasticity of demand for food truck cuisine is 1.9. What will happen to total revenue if the price of a curry per serve is decreased? Should you decrease the price of the curry
- In a competitive market, (inverse-) demand is P(Qd)=130 – (2/2)*Qd, while (inverse-) supply is P(Qs)=10 + (4/2)*Qs. What is the equilibrium quantity?If a new technology doubles the production of workers as well as the level of production output, then this will do what? It will shift all cost curves to the left. Shift the supply curve to the left. None of the above. Shift the supply curve to the right.A vertical demand curve or supply curve would be called:
- The supply function for the music tracks has the following form:q(p) =ap2 + bp + c where a,b and c are constant. When p = 1 quantity supplied is 4;when p = 2 quantity supplied is 10; and when p = 3 quantity supplied is 20. Find the parameters a, b, c. (Apply echelon matrix)The cost of production of a good can increase, which will cause profits to decrease. Will it cause the supply curve to increase or decrease?The competitive market for Botox procedures is characterized by the following supply and demand curves: QS = −2,000 + 10P and QD = 24,000 −16P where P is the price of the procedure and QS is the quantity supplied and QD is the quantity demanded. a: Solve for the equilibrium quantity and price in the Botox market.b: Neatly graph the market for Botox procedures, showing the vertical intercepts of the supplyand demand curves. Show the equilibrium.
- The output level that occurs in any market that is in equilibrium: a) is the quantity where the supply curve intersects the y-axis. b) is the quantity where the demand curve intersects the x-axis. c) is the quantity at an output level where buyers will pay more than suppliers require. d) is an output level where buyers will not pay as much as suppliers require. e) is the quantity where the demand and supply curves intersect each other. ?Which way (if any) does the Supply Curve shift if there is a decrease in the number of sellers? If there is a per-unit tax is placed on the production of the good? If the price of a relevant resource falls?Suppose there is a linear downward-sloping demand curve and a linear upward-sloping supply curve for a good. The price of a substitute good increases and the price of an input to production also increases. Graph the original demand (D1) and supply (S1) curves, then dray the curves (D2 & S2) after the substitute good and input prices increase. How will the equilibrium price change after the substitute and input prices increase?
