Q.5. Consider the following Cobweb model: Determine (a) the market price P in any time period, (b) the equilibrium price Pe, and (c) the stability of the time path. Qat = 40 – 10P; Qst = 2 +9Pt-1 Pg =
Variables typically included in a multivariate supply function (other than the price and quantity of the item the supply function represents) are prices of other goods that use similar input resources for production, the number of suppliers, techniques of production, taxes and subsidies, prices of input resources, weather, and expectations. Please answer the following questions about the affect changes in other variables might have on the supply of the item. These changes will either cause supply to increase (shift right) or decrease (shift left). Use either word as applicable, for the short answer. 1. If the market price of gasoline returns to the near $4.00 per gallon level then demand for gas-gulping large autos is likely to decrease and manufacturers of these autos are likely to _____________ their supply: 2. A relative increase in the productivity of the technology used to produce the item being considered is likely to _____________________ its supply. 3. Hailstorms have pelted…
Demand and supply for a good are given by the following two equations: Demand: q = α − p Supply: q = 30 + (1 + τ ) p where q and p denote the quantity and price, respectively. The parameter α is the maximum price consumers are willing to pay, also known as the choke price, while τ represents the tax rate imposed on suppliers. (a) Solve for the equilibrium price and quantity in terms of the parameters α and τ. (b) Find the equilibrium price and quantity when τ = 10% and α = 50

Please answer the following questions about the affect changes in other variables might have on the supply of the item. These changes will either cause supply to increase (shift right) or decrease (shift left). Use either word as applicable, for the short answer. If there is an increase in the number of producers of the item being considered, then the supply of it is likely to: A tariff is a form of trade restriction (that behaves much like a tax). Suppose the United States removes a high tariff on imported broccoli that had been in effect for a long time. How should this affect the supply of imported broccoli? A decrease in a…
Suppose that the marginal cost of extracting a non-renewable natural resource is MXC(Q) = 10 and the marginal benefit of using the resource is MB(Q) = 90Q. In the context of a static model, address the following questions. (a) Calculate the efficient value of Q if the total stock of the natural resource is Q = 50: Provide a graphical representation of the solution.
The demand and supply functions for a particular commodity are D(x) = 80e-0.001x and S(x)= 30e0.001r , where x is the number of units of the product, D(x) is the price that results in a consumer demand of x units and S(x) is the price that results in a producer supply of x units. a. Find the equilibrium point using your calculator and identify the equilibrium units and price. Give your answers to the nearest whole unit and nearest dollar. The value of x at equilibrium is units. The value of p at equilibrium is b. Determine the consumers' surplus.
The following data pertain to products A and B, both of which are purchased by Madame X. Initially, the prices of the products and quantities consumed are: PA = $10, QA = 3, PB = $10, QB = 7. Madame X has $100 to spend per time period. After a reduction in price of B, the prices and quantities consumed are: PA = $10, QA = 2.5, PB = $5, QB = 15. Assume that Madame X maximizes utility under both price conditions above. Also, note that if after the price reduction enough income were taken away from Madame X to put her back on the original indifference curve, she would consume this combination of A and B: QA = 1.5, QB = 9 Determine the change in consumption rate of good B due to (1) the substitution effect and (2) the income effect. Determine if product B is a normal, inferior, or Giffen good. Explain.
Consider the specific-factors model with 2 goods: manufacturing and agriculture. Manufacturing requires labour and sector-specific capital, while agriculture requires labour and sector-specific land. Labour is freely mobile across sectors. The government is considering to impose an import tariff on agricultural products. Which of the following is true? (a)The relative price of agricultural products will go down. (b)Capitalists will support this initiative. (c)Agricultural production will increase. (d)Marginal product of labour will decrease in manufacturing. Explain your answer clearly. Limit your explanation to 200 words.

One of the pandemic measures adopted by the city of Regina consists of a food-delivery fee cap (maximum fee) of 14% of the pre-tax order price. This fee is charged by delivery services such as Uber Eats, DoorDash, and Skip the Dishes. Some restaurants in the city argue that the cap (in percentage terms) is to high due to the small profits earned in this industry. Represent graphically the equilibrium in the market for food (restaurants) in the city in the absence of any interventions
Alter the desmos.com model using the following daily market demand and supply of burritos: P = 6.37 0.025 Q and P = 1.2 + 0.016 Q 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 50 100 150 200 250 30 To find the number of burritos that are supplied by firms and demanded consumers, you solve demand equal to supply (6.37 0.025 Q = 1.2 + 0.016 Q) for Q or use your Desmos model. It equals burritos. To find the market-clearing price, substitute his value into demand or supply or use your Desmos model. It is dollars per burrito. Regarding the first burrito supplied, the • maximum price the first consumer is willing to pay is • minimum price firms are willing to accept is • price that is paid for it is dollars • first consumer surplus is dollars dollars dollars
The quantity demanded x each month of Russo Espresso Makers is 250 when the unit price p is $150; the quantity demanded each month is 1000 when the unit price is $120.
