However, the government isn't sure at what level to set the subsidy. The figure below shows the current demand curve for pediatricians' visits (D₁), and three alternative subsidies, represented by curves D2, D3. and D4- Price (S) 240 220- 200- 180- 160- 140- 120- 80- 60- 40- 20- 0 Quantity of pediatrician visits D₂ reset D₂ D₂ 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 450 500 D₁ D₂ a. Assume that the correct level of subsidy is D3. Compared to the efficient outcome, graph the loss in total surplus that would result from subsidies D₂ and D4 Instructions: Use the tools provided (D₂ and D4) to draw the loss in total surplus for each subsidy. b.
