Table 3.9 illustrates the markets demand and supply for cheddar cheese. Graph the data and find the equilibrium. Next, create a table showing the change in quantity demanded or quantity supplied, and a graph of the new equilibrium, in each of the following situations: The price of milk, a key input for cheese production, rises, so that the supply decreases by 80 pounds at every price. A new study says that eating cheese is good for your health, so that demand increases by 20 at every price.

Market Equilibrium A retail chain will buy 800 televisions if the price is $350 each and 1200 if the priceis $300. A wholesaler will supply 700 of these televisions at $280 each and 1400 at $385 each. Assumingthat the supply and demand functions are linear, findthe market equilibrium point and explain what itmeans.
Standard tickets for Beyonce’s Renaissance tour went on sale in the UK for a price of£56 in February 2023. Many fans complained about receiving constant errormessages and being stuck in long on-line queues of more than 500,000 people. Inresponse to these negative comments a spokesperson for Ticketmaster, thecompany in charge of selling the tickets, stated that:‘There was never going to be enough tickets to meet demand’Using demand and supply analysis, discuss this comment paying particular attentionto the potential implications for: the existence of a secondary ticketing market andallocative efficiency. Explain the impact of different assumptions about sorting inyour answer.

TIMBER CRUNCH The demand and the supply of timber for construction in Australia are given by QD =120 - 20P QS = 40P We assume the market is perfectly competitive. 1) Calculate the price elasticity of demand and price elasticity of supply at the equilibrium price and quantity. 2) Due to Covid lockdowns, interstate transportation becomes difficult. Meanwhile, construction work is viewed as essential and therefore not affected by lockdowns. Use a demand and supply graph to explain how the lockdowns affect the equilibrium price and quantity. 3) Bushfires are more likely to happen in summer. If a bushfire happens again in the coming summer, how would you expect it to affect the timber market?

Ernie owns a water pump. Because pumping largeamounts of water is harder than pumping smallamounts, the cost of producing a bottle of waterrises as he pumps more. Here is the cost he incurs toproduce each bottle of water:Cost of first bottle $1Cost of second bottle $3Cost of third bottle $5Cost of fourth bottle $7a. From this information, derive Ernie’s supplyschedule. Graph his supply curve for bottledwater.b. If the price of a bottle of water is $4, how manybottles does Ernie produce and sell? How muchproducer surplus does Ernie get from thesesales? Show Ernie’s producer surplus in yourgraph.c. If the price rises to $6, how does quantity suppliedchange? How does Ernie’s producer surpluschange? Show these changes in your graph
