Consider the market for middle and aisle seats on airline flights. Aisle seats are more popular than middle seats. For every aisle seat, a middle seat exists (assuming the row of seats on each side of the plane consists of three seats: window, middle, and aisle). So, if the plane has 50 aisle seats, it will also have 50 middle seats. In other words, the supply of middle seats equals the supply of aisle seats. However, the demand for aisle seats is higher than the demand for middle seats. Adjust the following graph to show the position of the curve reflecting the demand for aisle seats relative to the demand for middle seats. PRICE (Dollars) 150 135 120 105 90 75 60 45 30 15 0 0 11 Supply of seats 22 33 44 55 66 77 88 99 110 QUANTITY (Seats) D Based on the graph, the price of an aisle seat is $ 0 Supply of seats

What is the difference between the demand and the quantity demanded of a product, say milk? Explain in words and show the difference on a graph with a demand curve for milk.
Suppose you learned that the price elasticity of demand for wheat is 0.7 between the current price for wheat and a price 2 higher per bushel. Do you think that farmers collectively would try to reduce the supply of wheat and drive the price up 2 higher per bushel? Explain your answer. Assuming that they would try to reduce supply, what problems might they have in actually doing so?
suppose a professional basketball game is to be played at a suburban arena, which increases demand for parking on the night of the game. If the suburban area has the ability to create additional parking during periods of peak demand, then O A the supply of parking will be more elastic and the price of parking wil increase by a relatively large amount the night of the game. O B the supply of parking wil be more elastic and the price of parking wil increase by arelatively small amount the night of the game the supply of parking wil be more inelastic and the price of parking will not change the night of the game o D, the supply of parking wil be more inelastic and the price of parking will increase by a small amount the night of the game. relatively o E. the supply of Paking will be perfectly elastic and the price of parking will increase by a relatively large amount the night of the game.
What effect will each of the following have on the supply of auto tires? Microeconomics chapter 3 Supply is a schedule or curve showing the amounts of a productthat producers are willing to offer in the market at each possibleprice during a specific period. The law of supply states that otherthings equal, producers will offer more of a product at a high pricethan at a low price. Thus, the relationship between price and quantity supplied is positive or direct, and supply is graphed as anupsloping curve.The market supply curve is the horizontal summation of thesupply curves of the individual producers of the product.Changes in one or more of the determinants of supply (resource prices, production techniques, taxes or subsidies, the pricesof other goods, producer expectations, or the number of sellers inthe market) shift the supply curve of a product. A shift to the rightis an increase in supply; a shift to the left is a decrease in supply. Incontrast, a change in the price of the…

While analyzing the semiconductor industry you notice that when the price of ultrapure water rises 2%, the demand for chip grade silicon declines 8%. From this data what appears to be true? O A Chip grade silicon is a substitute to Ultrapure water with a cross-price elasticity of +4. O B. Chip grade silicon is a complement to Ultrapure water with a cross-price elasticity of +0.25 O C. Chip grade silicon is a complement to Ultrapure water with a cross-price elasticity of-4. O D. Chip grade silicon is a substitute to Ultrapure water with a cross-price elasticity of -0.25

Let's say that researchers find that using suntan lotion has even greater benefits (protecting skin, lowering the chance of skin cancer, etc), than previously thought. If the American Dermatological Association put out a press release on this topic, we'd expect afterward that in the market for suntan lotion the equilibrium price would and the equilibrium quantity would O rise; fall O fall; fall O fall; rise O rise; rise
If the price of a haircut is $15, the number of haircuts provided is 100. If the price rises to $30 perhaircut, barbers will work much longer hours, andthe supply of haircuts will increase to 300. What isthe price elasticity of supply for haircuts between$15 and $30?
In the 1980s, automaker Porsche advertised its cars with this simple slogan: "Porsche, there is no substitute." What does this imply about the elasticity of demand for Porsches? O The reason people buy Porsches is because they are so rare. The less they produce, the more they sell. Porsches have an infinite demand. Porsches are complimentary goods with other cars. So the higher the demand for other cars, the higher the demand for Porsches will be. O With no substitutes available, the demand for Porsches would likely be quite (or maybe even perfectly) inelastic.
