Suppose that the demand curve for organic tomatoes is Q = 120-10p, and the supply curve is Q=10p. The government imposes a price control of p = 4. (a) Without government intervention, what is the equilibrium price and quantity? (b) Without government intervention, what is the consumer surplus, producer surplus, and deadweight loss? Use a graph in your calculations. (c) Is the price control a price ceiling or price floor? Why? With the price control, what is the new equilibrium...

2. Problems and Applications Q2 Suppose that Congress imposes a tariff on imported autos to protect the U.S. auto industry from foreign competition. Assume that the United States is a price taker in the world auto market.

1. Assume the government imposes a quota on the importation of foreign cars, with the quota being less than the number of cars that would be bought and sold in the U.S. without the quota. (Assume the market for foreign cars is competitive.) The graph below shows an example of a quota of 10 cars would affect the supply curve S1 10 12 (a) Using the supply and demand curves for foreign cars, show graphically why the quota policy will...

(1 point) The graph below shows the demand and supply for gasoline, Suppose the government imposes a price ceiling of $4 per gallon of gas. Does consumer surplus rise or fall? ? How much does consumer surplus rise or fall? Does producer surplus rise or fall? ? How much does producer surplus rise or fall? What is the size of the deadweight loss? How much of this deadweight loss is due to too little gasoline being sold? How much of...
Consider the market for designer purses. The following graph shows the demand and supply for designer purses before the government imposes any taxes.
2. Taxes and welfare Consider the market for designer purses. The following graph shows the demand and supply for designer purses before the government imposes any taxes. First, use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price and quantity of designer purses in the absence of a tax. Then use the green point (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing total consumer surplus (CS) at the equilibrium price. Next, use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing...
