- The demand and supply for a whole pizza in Mr Hot’s Market are given by the equations, Qd = 6,300 – 530P and Qs = 1,200 + 150P. What is the Statement of the Problem?A retail chain will buy 900 cordless phones if the price is $30 each and 800 if the price is $40. A wholesaler will supply 350 phones at $40 each and 1400 at $70 each. Assuming that the supply and demand functions are linear, find the market equilibrium point and explain what it means.A local store will buy 20 doorbell cameras from a supplier if the price is $77 each. If the price drops to $27 , then the store will buy 30 . The supplier is willing to sell 66 doorbell cameras for the price of $50.50 each, but only 49 at a price of $42.00 each. Find the supply and demand functions and the market equilibrium point. Assume both the supply and demand are linear. Use integers, fractions or decimals to describe the slopes and p-intercepts. A) What is the equation for the demand? p= B) What is the equation for the supply? p= c) What is the market equilibrium point?Explain in details
- Demand for parking in the City of Chambana is given by Qd = 210 – 0.5P, and the supply is Qs= P – 90, where price is in cents per car per day and quantity is in hundreds of cars parked per day. Draw a graph of the given demand and supply curve and label it as D0 and S0. Indicate numerically all relevant intercepts for your demand and supply curves on your graph. Find the short run equilibrium price and quantity in this market and label the numbers you found on the graph. State your equilibrium price and quantity under your graph; be careful in correctly using the units of measurement indicated in the directions for this question. Now, suppose that in order to fund improvements to the city’s parking garage, the city institutes a tax of 30 cents per unit of parking sold. E. Depict the effect of the tax by drawing an effective supply curve and label it as S1. Clearly show the direction of the shift and label the exact dollar amount by which it shifts. F. Indicate numerically all relevant…Spreadsheet exercises. Suppose that the market for video games is competitive with demand function Qd = 130 − 4p + 2Y + 3pm − 2pc, where Qd is the quantity demanded, p is the market price, Y is the monthly budget that anaverage consumer has available for entertainment, pm is the average price of a movie, and pc is the price of a controller that is required to play these games. Given that Y = $100, pm = $30, and pc = $30, use Excel to calculate quantity demanded for p = $10 to p = $80 in $5 increments. Use Excel’s charting tool to draw the demand curve. Let Y = $100, pm = $30, and pc increase to $40. Recalculate the demand schedule in part 1 and use Excel to draw the new demand curve.Demand for Corn Flakes is: P = 10 - Q. Supply of Kellogg's Corn Flakes is: P = 2 + Q. Now a generic company enters the market, selling generic Corn Flakes for $3. Assume consumers are indifferent between generic and Kellogg's Corn Flakes. When the generic corn flakes enter the market, Kellogg's will sell how many less boxes of their own cereal? Enter as an absolute value (NOT a negative number).
- Suppose the market demand for pizza is given by Qd = 300 – 20P and the market supply for pizza is given by Qs = -100 + 20P, where P = price (per pizza).Demand for Corn Flakes is: P = 14 - Q. Supply of Kellogg's Corn Flakes is: P = 2 + Q. Now a generic company enters the market, selling generic Corn Flakes for $4. Assume consumers are indifferent between generic and Kellogg's Corn Flakes. When the generic corn flakes enter the market, Kellogg's will sell how many less boxes of their own cereal?Let Qd = 30 - 6 P and Qs = 9 P be the demand and supply curves for soft drinks. Then the equilibrium combination in the market is: a. P* = 2; Q* = 18 b. P* = 2; Q* = 15 c. P* = 18; Q* = 2 d. P* = 10; Q* = 90
- suppose the demand for shoes is given by qd=40-5p and supply is given by qs=10p-20Walmart can be viewed as a first mover. Now suppose both Walmart and HEB are considering whether and how to enter a potential market. Market demand is given by the inverse demand function p= 900−q1−q2, where p is the market price margin, q1 is the quantity sold by Walmart and q2is the quantity sold by HEB. To enter the market, a retailer must build a store. Two types of stores can be built: Small and Large. A Small pantry store requires an investment of $50,000, and it allows the retailer to sell as many as 100 units of the goods at zero marginal cost. Alternatively, the retailer can pay $175,000 to construct a Large full-service supermarket that will allow it to sell any number of units at zero marginal cost. *Assume Walmart has built a Large full-service supermarket there (i.e.Walmartchooses to build a large full-service supermarketL1at the first stage). Calculate HEB’s profit for the following cases: a.) HEB chooses not to enter N′′ at the second stage after viewing Walmart’s…Walmart can be viewed as a first mover.
