I need help with this question: Suppose that a frost in Florida reduces the size of the orange crop, which causes the supply curve for oranges to shift to the left. Briefly explain whether consumer surplus will increase or decrease. Include a picture of the graph you drew to answer this question.
Homework Answers
The consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of the consumer and what they actually pay.
Consumer surplus = Willingness to pay - Actual price.
If the supply decreases the supply curve will shift upward and this will put upward pressure on the price of oranges, here the actual price of oranges will go up and the consumer surplus will decrease.
The consumer surplus is the area below the demand curve and above the price line, the green shaded area shows the new consumer surplus ( due to the leftward shift of supply curve). The yellow shaded area shows the loss in consumer surplus due to the shift.

Question 18 Suppose a frost destroys the tomato crop in California but farmers see an increase in their revenues. Which of the following best explains this? The demand for tomatoes is price inelastic. Tomatoes are necessities. The decrease in supply led to huge price increases The cross-price elasticity between tomatoes and most other substitute vegetables is very low,
