given Qd = 25-P and Qs=4p
it also says if price is at $10 and $2 compared to p* find the
amount of surplus and shortage, which i have already done
ive figured out p* is 5
and surplus would be 5$ at $10 and $3 shortage at $2
I need to find the price elasticity of both demand and supply.

Elasticity of demand = %change in Qd/%change in P
= ((15-23)/23)/((10-2)/2) = -0.087, inelastic in demand as the value is less absolute value of 1
Elasticity of supply = %change in Qs/%change in P
= ((40-8)/8)/((10-2)/2) =1, unitary elastic in supply as the value is equal to absolute value of 1
6. Given the following demand and supply curve, Qd = 500 - 4P and Qs = 5P - 400 a. Calculate and graph the market equilibrium, P and Q b. If the government raises the price to $105, calculate and graph the surplus or shortage that it creates
Deadweight Loss Given the following information: Qs = 2P P = Qs/2 QD= 180 - 4P P = (QD -180)/-4 AR = P = 45-.25Q TR = 45 - .25Q2 Hint: MC – supply curve MR = 45 - 5Q Qs = supply Qd = demand Using the above information, Graph and calculate the price-output solution under competitive market assumptions. How much is the consumer surplus producer surplus and total surplus? Calculate the price and the...
1 Suppose the demand for shoes is given by: QD= 210 -2P. The supply of shoes is given by: QS= 9P -120. Calculate the Gains from Trade (also known as Economic Surplus) that would exist in this market in a competitive equilibrium. 2 Suppose the demand for jackets was given by: QD= 140 -0.4P. The supply of jackets is given by: QS= 4P -80. Suppose the price was $49 per jacket. Calculate whether there is a surplus or shortage of...
Qd/1500 - P/1500 = 1 and QS=4PFind the equilibrium price and demand for this market
The demand for A product is QD = 150-4P, while the supply is QS = 100 + P. What are the equilibrium price and quantity? If a subsidy of $5 per unit is imposed calculate the new equilibrium and the changes is consumer, producer and total surplus.
The demand for a product is Qd=100-4P+3Px and supply is Qs=10+2P, where Q is the quantity of the product in thousands of units, P is the price of the product and Px is the price of another good. When Px = $40, what is the equilibrium price and quantity of the product? At the equilibrium price and quantity, what is the price elasticity of demand for the product? At the equilibrium price and quantity, what is the price elasticity of...
Suppose that supply and demand are given by the following equations: QD = 40 – 4P and QS = 2p – 2. In the above market, if a price floor of $8.50 was put into place, which of the following would result? A) A shortage of 10 units B) A surplus of 11 units C) Deadweight loss of at least $24 D) An increase in consumer surplus. Why is the Answer C?
Problem 1 Deadweight Loss Given the following information: Qs = 2P P = Qs/2 QD= 180 - 4P P = (QD -180)/-4 AR = P = 45-.25Q TR = 45 - .25Q2 MR = 45 - .5Q Hint: MC – supply curve MR = 45 - 5Q Qs = supply Qd = demand A) Using the above information, 1) Graph and calculate the price-output solution under competitive market assumptions. 2) How much is the consumer surplus producer surplus and...
Suppose demand and supply are given by Qd = 60 – P and Qs = P -20 What are the equilibrium quantity and price in this market?
