) A newspaper article mentions that two of South Korea’s largest semiconductor manufacturers, - Samsung Electronics Company and Hynix Semiconductor - would suspend all their memory chip production for some time. The article goes on to say that another large semiconductor manufacturer was likely to follow suit. Collectively, these chip manufacturers produce about 30 percent of the world’s basic semiconductor chips. Based on this information, how is the market for computers altered? Explain in detail.

The article goes on to say that another large semiconductor manufacturer was likely to follow suit. Collectively, these chip manufacturers produce about 30 percent of the world’s basic semiconductor chips. Based on this information, how is the market for computers altered? This answer involves no numerical computation. However, graphs/plots should be used to elaborate your answer. Explain plus make graphs for this answer.
Next, graphically illustrate the supply curve and demand curve for eggs, being certain that you fully label the graph;
Then, briefly distinguish the difference between a movement along a curve and a shift of the curve. In doing so, be certain to list in your answer the factors shifting the demand curve as well as the factors shifting the supply curve;
Next, graphically illustrate simultaneous shifts of the demand and supply curves for eggs, where there is a small rightward shift of the supply curve and a larger leftward shift of the demand curve, being certain that you fully label the graph. In doing so, be certain your answer includes an explanation of what happens to the equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity of eggs as a result of the shifts and what could have caused the supply curve to shift rightward and what could have caused the demand curve to shift leftward;

- Assume that the equilibrium price is at $3 and equilibrium quantity is at 40 units of a product. Then, imagine that suddenly any of determinants of demand, other than the price of the product, caused demand to increase while, at the same time, one of determinants of supply, other than the price of the product, caused supply to decrease. TASK: First, draw the demand and supply graph to show the original equilibrium price at $3 and equilibrium quantity at 40 units. Second pick ONE specific DETERMINANT of DEMAND and ONE specific DETERMINANT of SUPPLY Third, show in the graph what it looked like if demand increased and supply decreased (select where you think that the new price and quantity would change to), what the new equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity would be, after both changes in demand and supply occurred.
