Answer
P=$20
quantity demanded is
20=42-Q
Q=42-20=22
quantity supplied is
20=2Q
2Q=20
Q=10
the quantity demanded is higher than the quantity supplied so there is a shortage in the market
shortage =Qd-Qs=22-10=12 units
the shortage is 12 units

1. The market for DVDs has supply and demand curves given by Ps2Qand 42-Q respectively. a. What quantity of DVD at what price will be sold in equilibrium? b. If prices for DVDs are $14, do we expect to have an excess demand or excess supply in this market? Quantify this excess supply or excess demand. Illustrate the market for DVDs in a graph using the space below. Highlighting the market in equilibrium and when prices for DVDs are $14....
the supply and demand curves of bananas are given by the following P=10+2Q P= 50-2Q a) what is the equilibrium price and quantity? what is the pass through fraction of a tax burden to consumers? c) what is the price after a tax of £10 is imposed on every unit sold? d) how much of the £10 is born by the producer
Suppose a perfectly competitive market has the following inverse supply and demand curves: Supply: P= 5+2Q Demand: P = 50-Q. 1) Solve for the perfectly competitive Pe and Qe, and calculate consumer+producer surplus at Pe, Qe. 2) Suppose each unit of good produced created a negative externality to society valued at $1 per unit. Calculate the social optimum Pe and Qe for this case and compute consumer+producer surplus. 3) Show graphically the welfare loss if the externality is ignored.

The market for iced tea is characterized by the following supply
and demand functions:
Supply: Qs=50+8p
Demand: QD=120−6p ,
where Qs stands for quantity supplied (number of
bottles), QD stands for quantity demanded (number of
bottles), and p stands for price (per bottle). Suppose that the
current price per bottle in the market for iced tea is $6.
A) At the price of $6 per bottle in the market for iced tea,
sellers would want to sell bottles.
B) At the...
The supply and demand curves in a particular market are given by the following equations: Demand: Q = 80 – P, Supply: Q = P , where P is the price of the good and Q is the quantity supplied or demanded, respectively. If government taxes are imposed, the equilibrium market price will be a. Higher b. Lower c. Unclear
