5. TAXES/SUBSIDIES, AND OTHER GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS 1. Consider the demand and supply for bubbly water in a market represented by the following equations: QD = 15 - 10P QS = 40P - 50 where Q is millions of bottles per year and P measures dollars per bottle. The equilibrium price of bubbly water is $1.30 per bottle and 2 million bottles are sold each year. (a) Calculate the price elasticity of demand and the price elasticity of supply at the...
Suppose the market supply and demand for guitars in San Francisco are given by Demand: P=1000-0.25Q, Supply: P=200+Q. What is the equilibrium price and quantity of the product? What is the price elasticity of demand at equilibrium price? Now assume there is a $10 per unit excise tax. What price will buyers pay after tax is imposed? What is the quantity of theh good that will be sold? What is the deadweight loss?
The demand and supply conditions of market for beer are given by the following equations: Qd = 72 - P and Qs = -18 + P a) Find the initial equilibrium price and quantity. b) Calculate the consumer surplus and producer surplus for the equilibrium. c) Suppose that government impose a price floor at P=66 to control the consumption of beer. Is this policy effective? What are price and quantity consumed after this intervention of government? d) Going back to...

PROBLEM #6 The equilibrium price of cars in Boston in an unregulated automobile market is $25,000 per car, and the equilibrium quantity is 20,000 cars per year. Assume that the elasticities of supply and demand are equal. a) Using our supply-and-demand framework, graph the market in its initial equilibrium. Graphpaper is readily available at http://www.printfreegraphpaper.com/. b) The government imposes a $6,000 tax on suppliers. Draw the post-tax supply curve, and calculate how much of the tax is borne by producers...
