In a sunflower market, consumers have demand function for a sunflower given by P = -4Qd + 21 where Pis the market price of sunflower and Qd is quantity of sunflower demanded. On the other hand, suppliers of sunflower have supply function given by P = 2Qs + 3where P is the market price of sunflower and Qd is quantity of sunflower supplied. 10. Using demand and supply functions, calculate the market equilibrium price and quantity of sunflower. 11. Calculate for the consumer surplus, producer surplus, and total surplus at the market equilibrium (in values).

(Calculating Price Elasticity of Demand) Suppose that 50 units of a good are demanded at a price of Si per unit. A reduction in price to $0.20 results in an increase in quantity demanded to 70 units. Using the midpoint formula, show that these data yield a price elasticity of 0.25. By what percentage would a 10 percent rise in the price reduce the quantity demanded, assuming price elasticity remains constant along the demand curve?
