- Demand and supply often shift in the retail market for gasoline. Here are two demand curves and two supply curves for gallons of gasoline in the month of May in a small town in Maine. Some of the data are missing. Using the table, answer the following questions: Quantities Demanded Quantities Supplied Price D1 D2 S1 S2 $ 4.00 5,000 7,500 9,000 9,500 6,000 8,000 8,000 9,000 2.00 8,500 8,500 9,000 5,000 Instructions: Enter your answers as whole numbers. A) use the following facts to fill in the missing data in the table. If demand is D1 and supply is S1, the equilibrium quantity is 7,000 gallons per month. When demand is D2 and suppy is S1, the equilibrium price is $ 3.00 per galllon. When demand is D2 and supply is S1, there is an excess demand of 4,000 gallons per month at a price of $ 1.00 per gallon.

Here you have to consider: Whether a change in all consumers’ income has an effect on the demand or the supply side of the market. How to establish the direction of the change (increase or decrease?) How to deduce the impact on the equilibrium. Go back to the original equilibrium; to the point before the consumer income decrease. Now, consider that the market is flooded by new firms wanting to produce the good. Draw this change—again, consider the three points mentioned above. Finally, let’s put the two things together. What happens if you simultaneously decrease income and increase the number of firms involved in the market in terms of the new equilibrium price and quantity?
