Suppose you are asked to do a market analysis in an area in which a natural disaster has recently occurred. (An example might be Nashville after the spring floods or New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina.)
Other than building supplies (which is too easy :), choose a market for a good or service that will be affected.
Will demand or supply be affected? (Even if it might be both, just choose one or the other to keep it simpler).
What happens to equilibrium prices and output in this market? Draw a supply and demand graph for your own use, and then explain the process in detail.
Choose a market that has not already been chosen by a classmate. Be creative and thoughtful!
How will each of the following changes in demand and/or supply affect equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity in a competitive market; that is, do price and quantity rise, fall, or remain unchanged, or are the answers indeterminate because they depend on the magnitudes of the shifts? Use supply and demand diagrams to verify your answers.a. Supply decreases and demand is constant.b. Demand decreases and supply is constant.c. Supply increases and demand is constant.d. Demand increases and supply increases.e. Demand increases and supply is constant.f. Supply increases and demand decreases.g. Demand increases and supply decreases.h. Demand decreases and supply decreases.
In each of the following scenarios, the market is initially in equilibrium. Determine the impact each event would have on the given market.
a. New advances in recycling technology reduce the cost of producing paper made from recycled material.
1. Which of the following will occur in the market for paper made from recycled material?
supply will decrease
demand will increase

2. Will the advancement in recycling technology result in a shortage or surplus of paper made from recycled material at the previous price? Will the price of paper made from recycled material rise or fall?
surplus, rise
shortage, fall
shortage, rise
surplus, fall
b. Suppose General Electric, one of the largest suppliers of light bulbs, decides to discontinue its production of light bulbs.
