Consider the coffee market and the sugar market. Suppose that these two goods are complements. For each of these two goods, the demand curve is decreasing, while the gold curve is increasing. If the demand for coffee increases, then the equilibrium market price for sugar :
a)decreased.
(b) remains unchanged.
(c) increases
(d) There is not enough information to conclude.
Consider the following: If the price per unit of good A is P175 quantity purchased is valued at 5,250 units and quantity supplied equals 2,500 units. If price changes by P1, quantity demanded changes by 4 units for consumer demand and quantity supplied changes by 2 units.
Graph demand and supply curves on one set of axes and highlight the following: price intercepts of demand and supply curves, quantity-intercepts of demand and supply curves, and the equilibrium point. (Make sure to LABEL your graph accordingly.)
Draw a demand and supply graph for each of the following questions. For each question, start by drawing a correctly labeled graph of the market for cookies in equilibrium. Your starting graphs should each have correctly labeled axes and demand and supply curves. Label the equilibrium price and quantity as p1 and p2 on the axes of each of the starting graphs.
Show the effect on the equilibrium price and quantity in the market for cookies if the price of flour decreases. Determine which curve is affected by the change in the price of flour and whether it increases or decreases. On your graph, draw a new curve indicating the shift—either to the right or the left. Label the new equilibrium price and quantity as p2 and q2.

Concern about how the sudden price increase would impact poor families led the government to seek oil from the world market. Suppose that domestic market demand and supply curves are given as follows: P = 16 – 2QD P = 4 + QS where QD is the quantity demand, QS is the quantity supplied, and P is price ($s/unit). Solve for the equilibrium price and quantity of home heating oil in the domestic market. How many barrels of oil will consumers purchase if the world price is $6/unit?arrow_forwardFor each of the following observations, determine whether supply, demand, or both shifted and how. Over the last decade, the price of hybrid electric vehicles decreased, while the number of hybrid vehicles sold increased. During winter, the number of daily air routes between Denver and Aspen, Colorado, increases, as does the price of a ticket. From January through April in the United States, personal certified public accountants (CPAs) see a dramatic increase in their number of billable hours, but the average hourly rate of a CPA remains the same.arrow_forward
