Suppose that each firm that sells cases of jelly-beans has a cost function of C(q) = 25 + q2+q and that the market demand for jelly-beans is QD = 52 – 2∙P. A) What is the short-run industry supply curve? B) Suppose that in the interest of jelly-bean consumers, the government mandates that cases of jelly-beans can only be sold for $10.

Suppose that the cost function of a firm is C(q)=4q. Suppose that this is the only firm in the market, and demand is Q(p)=10-p. What is the Producer Surplus in a competitive equilibrium in this economy if the government imposes an advalorem tax of 20% (this means that if the firm sells at price p, the government receives 0.2p per unit sold)? 6 12 1 0 2
