Suppose the market for quiche is perfectly competitive, so sellers take the market price as given. Hilary manages a restaurant that offers quiche forsale. The following graph plots Hilary's weekly supply curve (orange line). Point A represents a point along her supply curve. The price of quiche is$2.25 per slice, which is given by the black horizontal line.PRICE (Dollars per slice)9.008.257.506.756.005.254.503.753.002.251.500.7500PriceSupply2 4Hilary's Weekly SupplyA6 8 10 12 14 16QUANTITY (Slices of quiche)18+20 22 24Using the previous graph, you can determine that Hilary is willing to supply her 6th weekly slice of quiche for $per slice, the producer surplus earned from supplying the 6th slice of quiche is $Suppose the price of quiche were to rise to $3.00 per slice.

Consider a market for solar energy panels as shown in the given graph. Due to a major breakthrough in terms of technological advancement in its manufacturing, the cost of production has gone down drastically. This causes the manufacturers of solar energy panels to shift their supply curve. Show the impact of this technological advancement on the supply curve of solar energy panels. Using the Line drawing tool, draw the new supply curve of solar energy panels. Carefully follow the instructions above and only draw the required object. What happens to the equilibrium price and quantity demanded after the supply curve of solar energy panels shifts? O A. Both price and quantity demanded increase. O B. Both price and quantity demanded decrease. O C. Price increases and quantity demanded decreases. O D. Price decreases and quantity demanded increases.

The following graph plots a supply curve (orange line) for several sellers in the market for motor scooters in State College, a university town in Pennsylvania. Each seller has a single motor scooter for sale. The market price of motor scooters is given by the horizontal black line at $70. Each rectangle on the graph corresponds to a particular seller in this market: blue (circle symbols) for Shen, green (triangle symbols) for Valerie, purple (diamond symbols) for Antonio, tan (dash symbols) for Caroline, and orange (square symbols) for Dmitri. (Note: The name labels are to the right of the corresponding segment on the supply curve.) Use the rectangles to shade the areas representing producer surplus for each person who is willing to sell a motor scooter at a market price of $70. (Note: If a person will not sell a motor scooter at the market price, indicate this by leaving their rectangle in its original position on the palette.)

Suppose that the market for porcelain lupines in Freedonia is perfectly competitive and initially in a long nun equilibrium. Porcelain lupines are normal goods in Freedonia and are produced with a computer aided technology. Porcelain lupines and ceramic roses are substitutes while porcelain lupines and glass vases are complements. Suppose that a government report shows that people who possess ceramic roses are 72.74% more likely to suffer from erectile dysfunction. Describe with the use of diagrams the effects of this report upon the market for porcelain lupines in the short run and in the long run.
The demand and supply of muffins in a small town are shown in the graph below. A great review of the town's bakeries in a major newspaper causes the demand for muffins to increase by 2 muffins at each price. Draw the new demand curve.

When the price of a certain product was considered to be "low", consumers spent $5 million monthly on it. After the price doubled, the total consumer expenditures increased to $7 million. Recently you read that this means that the demand curve for this product is upward sloping. Do you agree? Explain.

8. Shifts in supply or demand I The following graph plots the market for scones in Dallas, where there are always over 1,000 bakeries. Suppose the municipal government sharply increases local taxes, making it significantly more expensive to reside within Dallas city limits. Many residents decide to leave the city altogether for areas with lower local tax rates. Show the effect of this change on the market for scones by shifting one or both of the curves on the following graph, holding all else constant. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther. PRICE (Dollars per scone) Supply Demand 0 Demand 1C1 Supply
Between 1950 and 2020, the price of wheat fell dramatically from $20.23 per bushel to $4.85 per bushel. Suppose between 1950 and 2020, the supply of wheat increased substantially due to increases in productivity, shifting the wheat supply curve to the right. With this supply shift, the amount by which the price of wheat falls will be larger the more the demand for wheat. In addition, assume that between 1950 and 2020 the income of the average American increased substantially and that wheat is a normal good. With this increase in income, OA. the price of wheat will be unaffected. OB. the amount by which the price of wheat rises will be smaller the higher the income elasticity of wheat. C. the amount by which the price of wheat falls will be smaller the higher the income elasticity of wheat. OD. the amount by which the price of wheat rises will be smaller the lower the income elasticity of wheat. OE. the amount by which the price of wheat falls will be larger the higher the income…
