Individual demand and consumer surplusConsider the market for apartments. The market price of each apartment is $300,000, and each buyer demands no more than one apartment.Suppose that Tim is the only consumer in the apartment market. His willingness to pay for an apartment is $480,000. Based on Tim's willingness topay, the following graph shows his demand curve for apartments.Shade the area representing Tim's consumer surplus using the green rectangle (triangle symbols).PRICE (Thousands of dollars)400420360300240180120600Tim's DemandQUANTITY (Apartments)Market PriceTim's Consumer Surpis?

4. Consumer surplus for an individual and a market The following graph shows Becky's weekly demand for cheesecake, represented by the blue line. Point A represents a point along her weekly demand curve. The market price of cheesecake is $3.00 per slice, as shown by the horizontal black line. PRICE (Dollars per slice) 7.50 6.75 6.00 + 5.25 Demand 4.50 + 3.75 3.00 2.25 + 1.50 + 0.75 + 0 0 Price 2 Becky's Weekly Demand P 4 6 8 10 12 14 QUANTITY (Slices of cheesecake) 16 18 20 ? From the previous graph, you can tell that Becky is willing to pay for her 8th slice of cheesecake each week. Because she has to pay only $3.00 per slice, the consumer surplus she gains from the 8th slice of cheesecake is $ Suppose the price of cheesecake were to fall to $2.25 per slice. At this lower price, Becky would receive a consumer surplus of S 8th slice of cheesecake she buys. from the
01. Suppose there is only 1 product in the economy and that's Pizza, whoever wants to pay for pizza can be able to enjoy pizza. There two people Chris and Phill. Both are willing to pay 150$ for this pizza, but with this amount Chris wants to have 2 pizzas whilst Phill wants to have 3 pizzas. Being a pizza supplier by which method you can determine their demands for pizza and how can you ensure the market equilibrium. Support your answer with graph(s).
8. Consumer surplus using utility curves Suppose Rina has an allowance of $44 to spend on movies and other goods each month (represented by hudget constraint CF). The following graph shows her initial utility (₁) at point A from spending $27 of her total allowance on three movies ($9 each) and the remaining $17 on other goods. Note: Select a point on the graph to see its coordinates.

As a result, she now spends all of her allowance on other goods, moving her to point At this paint, her utility is, it was at point A. Although her parents do not want her to see movies, they don't want to reduce the overall utility Rina gets from her allowance; therefore, they decide to increase her total monthly allowance by just enough to make her as happy as she was when she was allowed to see movies. This amount is represented by the distance between…

Suppose that Michelle buys a cappuccino from Paul's Cafe and Bakery for $5.75$5.75. Michelle was willing to pay up to $7.75$7.75 for the cappuccino, and Paul's Cafe and Bakery was willing to accept $2.25$2.25 for the cappuccino. Based on this information, answer the following questions. Michelle's consumer surplus: $ Paul's Cafe and Bakery's producer surplus: $
Suppose Yvette just sat down to enjoy the Double Stack burger that she purchased for $1.00. Her friend, Sean, would also like a Double Stack burger, but he strongly dislikes standing in line. Sean offers to buy Yvette's Double Stack rather than wait in line himself and pay $1.00. The following table shows some hypothetical offers Sean might make for Yvette's burger. First, compute the consumer surplus Yvette gets from buying the burger for $1.00, refusing Sean's offers, and eating the burger. Enter these amounts in the second column of the following table. Next, compute the consumer surplus she gets from buying the first burger at $1.00, selling it to Sean at each price listed, purchasing another burger for $1.00, and consuming it. Enter these amounts in the third column of the table. Again, assume that Yvette's cost of waiting in line for a burger is zero. Note: If Yvette is willing to sell her burger to Sean while at the Wendy's restaurant, she would purchase another burger…
Suppose you consume 3 pounds of beef and 5 pounds of pork per month. The price of beef is $1.50 per pound, and pork is $3.00 per pound. Assuming you have studied economics and achieved consumer equilibrium, the ratio of your marginal utility of beef to your marginal utility of pork is

Jacob likes the restaurant's pasta, and his willingness to pay for each serving is shown in the accompanying table: Willingness to pay for pasta (per serving) $10 Quantity of Pasta (servings) 1 $8 3 $6 4 $4 $2 6. $O a. If the price of a serving of pasta is $5, how many servings will Jacob buy? How much consumer surplus does he receive? b. The following week, Jacob is back, but now the price of a serving is $6. By how much does his consumer decrease compared to the first week? c. One week later, he goes to the restaurant again. He discovers that the restaurant is offering an "all you can eat" special for $25. How much pasta will Jacob eat, and how much consumer surplus does he receive now? d. Suppose you own Hacienda Pizza Co and Jacob is a "typical" customer. What is the highest price you can charge for the “all you can eať" special and still attract customers?
