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…

What are independent demand items? What two basic ordering systems are used for theseitems? What are dependent demand items? What system should be used to order these items?
I need help with finding equilibrium point on this question? a retailer will buy 45 radios fom a wholesaler if the price is $10 each but only 20 if the price is $60. the wholesaler will supply 35 radios at $30 each and 70 radios at $50 each. assuming the supply and demand functions are linear, find the market equilibrium point. I started with using the equation for a line and moved on to demand equation, how do I find out the supply functions? Do I plug in the supply number as (P1,Q1) and (P2,Q2) and if they come out equal is that the equilibrium point or is there something I am missing?
Corn can be used to make tortilas or to make ethanol fuel for trucks and automobiles. Which of the following statements is incorect?

Hi, the question is Doug William, the owner of a corner store, estimates that the supply and demand for a specialized energy drinkcould be described by the following equationsD : q = −25p + 345, S : q = 50 p − 330 ,where p represents the price in dollars per case (each case contains 12 bottles), and q represents the number of cases sold each week. I want you to help me with how to... Set the problem in Excel, and use Goal Seek to confirm your answers in parts
The market demand for productXis given by: \[ Q_{d}=6-1 / 2 P \text { or } P d=12-2 Q \] The market supply for goodXis given by: \[ Q_{s}=-14+2 P \text { or } P s=7+1 / 2 Q \] whereP=price per unit andQis number of units. Draw a supply-and-demand graph with these curves. 1.) Using the line drawing tool, draw the supply and demand curves. Properly label your lines. 2.) Using the point drawing tool, plot the equilibrium point. Label your point 'E'. Note: Carefully follow the instructions above and only draw the required objects. The equilibrium price is$and the equilibrium quantity is unit(s). (Enter your responses as integers.) A per-unit excise tax is imposed on suppliers of productX, and the market supply with the tax is now given by: \[ Q_{s}=-19+2 P \text { or } P s=9.50+1 / 2 Q \] Using the graph on the right, show this supply curve. 1.) Using the line drawing tool, draw the new supply curve. Label your line 'S1+tax'.1. Note: Carefully follow the instructions above and only draw…
In a certain market for sobolo,when the price of the drink was Ghc 3 the quantity demanded was 12bottles.On another day,when the price per bottle was 5 cedis,the quantity demanded was 6 bottles.Use the information to write the equation for demand.Now,what will be quantity demanded if price per bottle was 6cedis.If we restrict price to the same demand curve,what will happen if price is less than Ghc 2.

3. Determinants of demand The following graph shows the demand curve for sedans (for example, Toyota Camrys or Honda Accords) in New York City. For simplicity, assume that all sedans are identical and sell for the same price. Initially, the graph shows market demand under the following circumstances: Average household income is $50,000 per year, the price of a subway ride is $2.00 per ride. Use the graph input tool to help you answer the following questions. You will not be graded on any changes you make to this graph. Note: Once you enter a value in a white field, the graph and any corresponding amounts in each grey field will change accordingly. Graph Input Tool Demand for Sedans Demand for Sedans 40 I Price of a sedan (Thousand of dollars) 20 Quantity Demanded 450 30 (Sedans per month) Demand Shifters Average Income (Thousands of dollars) 50 Demand 10 Price of Subway (Dollars per ride) 2 100 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 900 QUANTITY (Sedans per month) PRICE (Thousands of dollars per…
