1. Potato growers have a mandatory demand expansion program where all growers pay a certain amount to fund a promotion program for tomatoes. You have estimated the following market supply and demand functions for potatoes, which include a demand shifter for generic potato promotion: Qd = 15 - P + 0.1PROM Qs = 5 + 2.5P TC = 0.2Qs where: Qd = quantity demanded of potatoes, measured in million pounds, P = price of potatoes measured in $ per pound,...
