- how does the rate at which opportunity costs rise as quantity increase determine elasticty of supply for a good?arrow_forwardEnergy markets, such as the market for natural gas and electricity, have been known to be characterized by inelastic demand. However, recent research discussed in the August 25, 2022 issue of The Economist, indicates that while the responsiveness of quantity demanded in response to price changes indeed is “inelastic” (i.e., the absolute value of price elasticity of demand is still less than 1), the percentage change in quantity demanded in response to a change in price is much larger than earlier research indicated. Answer these narrative questions. No graphs are needed. What does “inelastic demand” formally mean? In addressing this part of the question, please make sure to explain the concept of the price elasticity of demand using a simple formula and by providing a short narrative.

- Imagine the market for Good X has a demand function of QDX = 100 – 2PX – 4PY + .05M + .1AX and a supply function of QSX = 4PX – 10, where PX is the price of Good X, PY is the price of Good Y, M is the average consumer income and AX is the amount spent to advertise Good X. If PY is $3, M is $24,000, AX is $500, find the equilibrium quantity of Good X.arrow_forwardEpi-pens are a name-brand medicine. Epi-pens are used to quickly inject epinephrine into the body in the event of a severe allergic reaction. Many Americans require Epi-pens due to potentially life-threatening allergies. Using the concept of elasticity, explain why the government would likely not impose a tax on the market for Epi-pens. Suppose the government believes the price of Epi-pens is too high, so they impose a price control on the market. Would the government use a price floor or a price ceiling in this situation? What effect would the chosen price control have on the market. Suppose that the number of adults developing severe allergies increases. At the same time the patent for Epi-pens expires, allowing new producers of Epi-pens to enter the market. Explain what will happen to the equilibrium price and quantity of Epi-pens.arrow_forwardWho would pay a tax imposed on the supplier when the price elasticity of supply is inelastic and the price elasticity of demand is elastic?arrow_forward
