9.5 Gasoline is sold through local gasoline stations under perfectly competitive conditions. All gasoline station owners face the same long-run average cost curve given by AC .01q 1+100/q and the same long-run marginal cost curve given by MC 02q-1 where q is the number of gallons sold per day. a. Assuming the market is in long-run equii brium, how much gasoline will each individual owner sell per day? What are the long-run average cost and marginal cost at this output...

(20 marks) Consider a perfectly competitive local market for retail gasoline fuel in Ontario for which the demand side comprises 30,000 vehicles. Each gasoline firm in the market has an annual long-run total cost function of TC(q) = F +0.629 + 125,000,000 if q> 0 if q = 0 (TC(q) = 0 where F is fixed cost and q is firm-level output in litres of gasoline retailed per year. Each firm owns a single facility i.e. gas station), hires a...

8. Suppose the inverse demand equation for unleaded gasoline is P = 16−2Q, and the inverse supply equation is P = 0.5Q, where P is per gallon price. The government decides to impose a $1 excise tax on gas. Gas stations file the tax. How much does a consumer pays for each gallon in equilibrium after the imposition of tax? How much does a gas station get for each gallon sold? A. Gas station gets $4 per gallon, consumer pays...

Assume that the market for gasoline in Chicago is competitive and that on a given day the market price is $4.00 (per gallon) and that 20,000 gallons are sold. a. Draw a diagram of the Chicago gasoline market (i.e., supply and demand), carefully labeling all axes, curves, and numbers. b. Explain, both verbally and graphically, what would happen to the price of gas in Chicago if a new war in the Middle West caused a drastic cutback in the supply...

Assume that the current price for gasoline is $1.30 a litre, and at that price the market is in equilibrium with 144,000 litres sold per day. Now assume that the government imposes a $.10 a litre sales tax on gasoline, to be collected by gas stations and remitted to the government. After the tax, consumers pay $1.38 per litre of gasoline, and only 140,000 litres are sold per day. a) Draw the Demand Curve, and the Old and the New...

A gas station owner sees a report on TV which states that the number of gallons of gasoline sold in the U.S. has barely dropped, even as the price per gallon has soared in recent weeks. The price elasticity of demand for gasoline is described in the report as “highly inelastic”. The gas station owner responds to this report by jacking up the prices at his station by 50 cents per gallon. Sales and revenues at his station plummet in...

Question 3 20 pts 3) Corn is produced under perfectly competitive conditions. Corn farmers have U-shaped, long-run average cost curves that reach a minimum average cost of $3 per bushel when 1000 bushels are produced. a.(10) If the market demand curve for corn is given byQp = 2,600,000 - 200,000P, in the long-run equilibrium what will be the price of corn, how much total corn will be demanded, and how many corn farms will there be? b.(10) Suppose demand increases...
