Please written by computer source Suppose that the demand curve for a product is given by Q = 100 −10p and the supply curve is Q = 10p. Assume that income effects (elasticities) are small so consumer surplus is a good measure of consumer welfare. (a) What is the equilibrium price and quantity with no distortions? (b) The government imposes a tax of $2.00 per unit sold. What is the new equilibrium quantity? Sketch the market equilibrium in a graph. (c) Given the tax what is the change in consumer surplus? What is the change in producer surplus? What is the change in government revenue? What is the net Dead Weight Loss from the tax? (d) Say the government proposes to use the revenue from the tax to pay for snacks in our last ECON 312A lecture. The total social benefits from the snacks would be $82.00. Will the tax increase overall welfare if the revenue is used to buy the snacks? What is the dollar value of the net gain or loss to society?
Suppose the market demand for organic grass-fed beef is given by Q=100-2P and the supply is given by Q= P/2 (quantity is given in thousand pounds). A) Find the equilibrium price of a pound of beef and the equilibrium quantity. B) Find the consumer surplus (CS) and producer surplus (PS) at the market equilibrium point. C) How will the equilibrium change if the government imposes a price ceiling of $20/pound? D) Show this market with the price ceiling in a supply and demand graph. E) Consider that the consumers who bought the beef at $20/pound are the ones with the highest willingness to pay (scenario 1), what is the new consumer surplus (CSnew) and the new producer surplus (PSnew)? F) What is the deadweight loss (DWL) after the price ceiling in scenario 1? G) What would happen in this market if, instead, the consumers who bought the beef were the ones with the lowest willingness to pay (scenario 2)?

Show all work please thanks D.) Now, according to this graph, how much is the consumer surplus when price is set below the equilibrium level at P=$5? (Use the area of a triangle and the area of a rectangle, length x length) E.) According to this graph, how much is the producer surplus when price is equal at P= $5? (use the area of triangle: Base x Height x 1⁄2) F.)In the graph, how much is deadweight loss at a price of $5? (use the area of a triangle) please show calculations so I know how to arrive at those numbers! Thank you
Suppose that the price of materials used to produce computer hardware, such as graphics cards, is decreased. Show what occurs to price, quantity, consumer surplus, producer surplus, and total surplus in the market for computers graphic cards using a supply-and-demand diagram (draw a graph). Furthermore, provide five explanations for what occurred.
A). Draw the supply and demand curves for the market of specific good. B). Suppose that the equilibrium price for this product is $4 and the equilibrium quantity is 100 units. If the government imposes a price ceiling of $3 what happens? Draw the new graph explaining how quantities are affected by that decision. C). Suppose that the equilibrium price for this product is $4 and the equilibrium quantity is 100 units. If the government imposes a price floor of $5 what happens? Draw the new graph explaining how quantities are affected by that decision.
