18-19. In the competitive market for white sugar, consumer demand is given by P=100-0.050 and suppliers' behaviour is represented by the supply curve of P=1+0.005Q, where P is measured in dollars and Q is measured in kilos per month. Questions 17 through 19 refer to this market. 18. Imagine now that the government imposes a price ceiling of $5.00 per kilo on sugar, and that the ceiling is obeyed by all market participants. In the resulting equilibrium the total number of kilos of sugar exchanged in the market is equal to: A) 2100 G) 800 B) 2000 H) 600 A) $5 G) $70 C) 1900 I) 400 B) $10 H) $80 19. Suppose suppliers obey the price ceiling but consumers sell sugar on a black market. What will the black market price for sugar be? D) 1400 E) 1200 J) None of the above C) $10.50 I) $21 E) $50 F) 1000 D) $40 J) None of the above F) $60
