What is the difference between static and dynamic analysis in economics? When is each appropriate?
Assume two famous kurta brands; A1Suits selling kurtas made with natural pure cotton while K2Kaprey with polyester.
An article is published giving advantages and recommendation of wearing pure cotton clothing material during a heat wave. What will be the short-run and the long-run impact of the research article?
In support of your answer apply the comparative statics analysis, using clearly labelled two panel diagrams of demand and supply model, along-with brief explanations for:
a. Short-run market changes due to ‘Rationing function of Price’. b. Long-run market analysis of ‘Guiding or Allocating function of Price’.
The dynamic market model is closely patterned after the static one. What specific new feature is responsible for transforming the static model into a dynamic one?

- 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 curryarrow_forwardThe demand and supply of pizza is defined by the following equations: Qd = D(P, Y ) = 1 + Y − 2P Qs = D(P, PM) = 2 P/PM where, Qd is quantity demand, P is the price of each pizza sold, Y is the average income of consumers, Qs is the quantity supplied, and Pm is the price of inputs used in the production of pizza. (a) List the endogenous and exogenous variables of this model (b) Find the equilibrium price Pe and quantity Qe of pizza as a function of the exogenous variables. (c) Use a simple demand and supply diagram to show what happens to the equilibrium price and quantity when there is an increase in one of the exogenous variables.arrow_forwardPeanut butter and almond butter are substitutes.

However, apertures (A) are a factor specific to cameras, and jerrycans (J) are a factor specific to helicopters. Suppose that labor is freely mobile between both industries. Suppose that by opening up to trade the price of cameras in Tanzania falls by 5%, wages fall by 3%, and the price of helicopters does not change. Use the following information to determine how these affect the rental rates of apertures and jerrycans: Cameras: Sales Revenue 30 Cameras: Labor Payments 20 Cameras: Apertures Payments 10 Helicopters: Sales Revenue 30 Helicopters: Labor Payments 10 Helicopters: Jerrycans Payments 20 In this case, the rental rate to apertures would change by _______ % and the rental rate to jerrycans would change by ______ %.
