Solve a Consumers' or Producers' Surplus Problem. A sports watch has a price-demand equation given by P D(z) 95-2 0.21171z = dollars, which gives the price per watch when x watches are demanded. The price-supply equation for the watch is given by p=S(x)=0.7x+5 dollars, which gives the price per watch when watches are supplied. If the equilibrium quantity is 13, find the consumers' surplus and the producers' surplus. The consumers' surplus is (Your answer must begin with $.) The producers' surplus is (Your answer must begin with S.)

The price elasticity of demand for air travel differs radically from first-class (1.3) to unrestricted coach (1.4) to restricted discount coach (1.9). What do these elasticities mean for optimal prices (fares) on a cross-country trip with incremental variable costs (marginal costs) equal to $120?

Solve a Consumers' or Producers' Surplus Problem. A sports watch has a price-demand equation given by p= D(z) = 40-2-0174176a dollars, which gives the price per watch when a watches are demanded. The price-supply equation for the watch is given by p= S(x) = 0.6z+4 dollars, which gives the price per watch when z watches are supplied. If the equilibrium quantity is 11, find the consumers' surplus and the producers' surplus. The consumers' surplus is. (Your answer must begin with S.) The producers' surplus is Your answer must begin with $.)

4. There is no demand for a certain make of one-time use camera when the unit price is $ 12. However, when the unit price is $ 8, the quantity demanded is 8000/week. The supplier will not market any cameras if the unit price is $ 2 or lower. At $ 4/camera, however, the manufacturer will make available 5000 cameras/week. Given that both the supply and demand equations are linear: (a) Determine the associated linear demand function (b) Determine the linear supply function. (c) At what price should the camera be sold so that there is neither a surplus nor a shortage?

A movie theater has been charging $ 10.00 per person and selling about500 tickets on Saturday and Sunday nights. After surveyingtheir customers, theater owners estimate that for every 50 cents theylower the price, the number of attendees will increase by 50 per night.Find the demand function and calculate the consumption surplus whentickets are sold for $ 8.00.

Consider the demand function for processed pork in Canada, Q. = 590.00 – 36p + 20p, + 3p. + 0.002Y The supply function for processed pork in Canada is: Q. = 442.00 + 52p - 60p, p is the price of pork Pn is the price of beef = $4 per kg Q is the quantity of pork demanded Po is the price of chicken = $3 per kg (measured in millions of kg per year) Y is the income of consumers = $12,500 Ph is the price of a hog = $1.50 per kg Solve for the equilibrium price and quantity for pork. The equilibrium price of pork is $and the equilibrium quantity of pork is million kg per year.

Suppose the demand for bicycles is given byQp = 10,000P- and the supply of bicycles is given by Qs = 0.01P3. (a) Using calculus and the given supply and demand curves, find mathematical expressions for the elasticities of demand and supply as a function of the price. Use these expressions to demonstrate that both curves have constant elasticity along their entire length. (b) Find the equilibrium price and quantity in this market mathematically.

The demand function for a certain brand of DVD is given by p = = -0.001x? – 0.2x + 8 where p is the unit price in dollars and x is the quantity demanded each week, measured in units of a thousand. Determine the consumers' surplus if the mar- ket price is set at $18 per disc.

The price-demand equation for a particular flashlight is given by p = 118 - 0.002x, where x is the number of flashlights demanded when the price is p dollars each. The flashlight manufacturers will produce no flashlights if the price is $79 or less, and they will market 5,500 flashlights when the price is $101 per flashlight. (Assume the price-supply equation is linear.) (a) Find the consumers' surplus for this commodity. $ (b) Find the producers' surplus for this commodity. $

You are the Economic Consultant for Zuku Farms Ghana Limited. Zuku produces cowpea in a community where producers are able to switch back and forth between cowpea and groundnut depending on market conditions. Consequently, you were tasked by the management of Zuku and you estimated the demand function for cowpea as follows: where  is the quantity of cowpea demanded in bags per month,  is the average price of cowpea in Ghana Cedis,  is the average price of groundnut in Ghana Cedis, and Y is the income of consumers. Assuming  is initially GH¢31.00 per bag, Y is GH¢1001.50. Also that your estimated supply function for cowpea is as follows:  QS = -25 + 3.5PC -1.5Pf – 0.5Pg + 0.25R Where Qs is the quantity supplied of cowpea in bags,  Pc and Pg are as defined above,  Pf is the price of fertilizer per bag, R is the amount of rainfall (in inches). If  Pf = GH¢10, R= 40 inches and Pg= GH¢31.00 Find the resulting supply function for cowpea and determine the equilibrium price and quantity.…
