Suppose demand and supply are given by: (LO3, LO4)Qx d = 14 − 1/2Px and Qx s = 1/4Px − 1a. Determine the equilibrium price and quantity.
Suppose demand and supply are given by: (LO3, LO4)Qx d = 14 − 1/2 Px and Qx s = 1/4Px − 1a. Determine the equilibrium price and quantity. Show the equilibrium graphically.
Assume that both the demand curve and the supply curve for coffee shift to the right but the demand curve shifts more than the supply curve. As a result O the equilibrium price of coffee will decrease; the equilibrium quantity may increase or decrease. O the equilibrium price of coffee may increase or decrease; the equilibrium quantity will increase. O both the equilibrium price and quantity of coffee will increase. O the equilibrium price of coffee will increase; the equilibrium quantity may increase or decrease.

How shifts in demand and supply affect equilibrium Consider the market for pens. Suppose that the number of students with an allergy to pencil erasers increases, causing more students to switch from pencils to pens in school. Moreover, the price of plastic, an important input in pen production, has dropped considerably. On the following graph, labeled Scenario 1, indicate the effect these two events have on the demand for and supply of pens. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther.arrow_forwardI. For the normal good, make a (Hypothetical) linear demand schedule with 7 different price points and corresponding quantity demanded for your own household. For the same normal good, make another (Hypothetical) linear demand schedule with 7 different price points and corresponding quantity demanded for your neighbor. Assuming that you and your neighbor are the only two households in the market, make a market demand schedule for the same normal good. Draw and interpret a graph to show the market demand and impact of changes in quantity demanded, if price of the same normal good decreases.arrow_forward
- The table below shows two demand schedules for a given style of men’s shoe—that is, how many pairs per month will be demanded at various prices at a men’s clothing store in Seattle called Stromnord. Price D1 Quantity Demanded D2 Quantity Demanded $85 53 13 80 60 15 75 68 18 70 77 22 65 87 27 Suppose that Stromnord has exactly 70 pairs of this style of shoe in inventory at the start of the month of July and will not receive any more pairs of this style until at least August 1. Instructions: Enter your answers as whole numbers.a. If demand is D1, what is the lowest price that Stromnord can charge so that it will not run out of this model of shoe in the month of July? What if demand is D2? b. If the price of shoes is set at $85 for both July and August and demand will be D2 in July and D1 in August, how many pairs of shoes should Stromnord order if it wants to end the month of August with exactly zero pairs of shoes in its inventory?

The price R.O 1.5 is the market clearing price of milk c. At the price R.O 1.5, the demand and supply of milk will be equal d. The price R.O 1.5 is the equilibrium price of milkarrow_forwardThe price of oil is currently over $80 per barrel and has been as high as $90 per barrel after Saudi Arabia and a couple of oter OPEC countries reduced output this year. The demand for oil is expected to increase by 1 million barely per day over the next year according to the International Energy Agency but OPEC+ has been unclear about its intentions of increasing oil supplies. a. If OPEC+ increases its production by million barrels per day, we can unambiguously say that the equilibrium price will fall, and the equilibrium quantity will rise.arrow_forward
- Show the change graphically for a simultaneous decrease in demand and a increase in supply. For each scenario, state how equilibrium price and quantity changes. What is the conclusion of these changes (can you say for certainty what direction to equilibrium quantity and price changes)? Recall you have three sets of graphs here. Demand changes by a larger magnitude than Supply Demand changes by a smaller magnitude than Supply Demand and Supply changes by the same magnitude.arrow_forwardA consumer has $300 to spend on goods X and Y.
