#1 The market ties are competitive and demand is given by P=210-Q. If supply is given by P=2Q, what will be the price in this market and what quantity? #2 Suppose that the administration requires all of its faculty and students to wear new ties every day. Draw a supply and demand graph of this situation indicating what will happen to the market price and quantity for the ties. Why does the price change in this market? #3 When P=5, quantity...

Suppose the supply function for canola is given by: Qs = 500 + 10p − 10pL^3...
Suppose the supply function for canola is given by: Qs = 500 + 10p − 10pL^3 − 2pF, where Qs is the quantity of canola supplied, p is the price of canola (own-price), pL is the rental price of land, and pF is the price of fertilizer. Which input price, land or fertilizer, has a larger effect on the quantity of canola supplied? Will this always be the case, or is the size of the effect only valid for certain...

1) Demand in a market is given by Q=9p-7.3 where p is the market price. What is the elasticity of demand? Include the negative sign if necessary. 2) Demand in a market is given by Q=3p-3 where p is the market price. There are 18 identical firms in the market. What is the elasticity of the residual demand faced by each firm when the elasticity of supply of the other firms is 2.6? 3) Inverse demand in a market is...
