Suppose price is 5 percent above equilibrium intwo markets: a market for a necessity and a marketfor a luxury good. All else equal (including supplyconditions), in which market do you expect deadweight loss to be greater? Explain.
Deadweight loss:
Creates efficiency in markets when producers and consumers both agree to it.
2. is the difference between the total surplus occurring in a market and the maximum total surplus achievable.
3. is the loss in producer surplus from a price increase.
4. is the difference between the efficient quantity and the market quantity.
If the product is $8, only 450 units will be exchanged. What is the consumer surplus, producer surplus, total surplus, and deadweight loss?
