This is the market for steer. Steer are processed into 1 hide and 1 beef. Initial Demand for hides: Q = 70 –P Initial Demand for beef: Q = 100 – 0.5P Market supply for steer: Q = -35 + 0.5P New Scenario: Suppose now that the demand for beef surges and people are now willing to pay double for beef. a) Calculate new market Q and P for steer b) Calculate new market Q and P for hides c) Calculate new market Q and P for beef

• You are given a task for analysis the market for Sport Bike. You found that when the market price of bike is $500 the market demand is 9,200 bikes, whereas the market supply is 6,000 bikes. Yet, when the price rises to $650 the market demand is 6,800 bikes but the market supply is 8,000 bikes. Your tasks are: a) Define the equations of market demand and market supply for bike. b) Find the equilibrium-price and equilibrium– quantity and draw a graph to show this market. c) Estimate the consumers' surplus, producers' surplus and bike market's surplus.
This is the market for steer. Steer are processed into 1 hide and 1 beef. Initial Demand for hides: Q = 70 -P Initial Demand for beef: Q = 100- 0.5P Market supply for steer: Q =-35 + 0.5P New Scenario: The demand for beef rises. People are now willing to pay 80% more than what they used to pay for beef. Hints: you must correctly calculate the new equation for hides to get this question correct. If you feel stuck, try some prices with the original demand for beef and your new demand for beef. Are people willing to pay 1.8 tim as much for each quantity of beef? If so, you have correctly calculated your new Deef Curve. • For example, with the initial demand, people are willing to pay $160 for 20 beef and $100 for 50 beef. the new scenario, the new demand curve needs to show that people are now willing to pay $288 for 20 beef and $180 for 50 beef. a) Calculate new market Q and P for steer b) Calculate new market Q and P for hides c) Calculate new market O and P for beef

12 Jim's Camera shop sells two high-end cameras, the Sky Eagle and Horizon. The demands and selling prices for these two cameras are as follows. Ds = demand for the Sky Eagle Ps= selling price of the Sky Eagle DH = demand for the Horizon PH = selling price of the Horizon = 223 - 0.60P + 0.35PH DH=270+ 0.10P - 0.64PH Revenue Ds The store wishes to determine the selling price that maximizes revenue for these two products. Develop the revenue function R (in terms of Ps and PH only) for these two models, and find the revenue maximizing prices (in dollars). (Round your answers to two decimal places.)

Consider the market for cars. Car producers expect the price of cars to increase next month. What will happen to the supply curve right now? Group of answer choices A The current supply of cars will decrease (a shift in the entire curve) B The current supply of cars will increase (a shift in the entire curve) C The current quantity supplied for cars will increase (a movement along the curve) without a shift in the curve D The current quantity supplied for cars will decrease (a movement along the curve) without a shift in the curve
1. The estimated demand for Canadian Processed Pork is given by Qp = 171 – 20p+ 20pB + 3pc +2Y where Qp is the quantity of pork demanded (millions of kg), p is the dollar price per kg, pB is the price of beef per kg, pc is the price of chicken per kg, and Y is average consumer income in thousands of dollars. The supply for this market is given by Qs = 178 + 40p – 60pB (a) According to the equations, what is the effect of an increase of Pc on the market for pork? Specifically, which curve will shift, in what direction does the curve shift, and how will the equilibrium price and quantity change (increase/decrease). On a corresponding graph of the supply and demand, draw the shifting curve and change in equilibrium. Note that no specific numbers are required here. Just the direction of change. (b) Use the equations to solve for the equilibrium price of pork and quan- tity of pork as functions of the exogenous variables pB, Pc, and Y. These will be linear functions. (c) Suppose pB = 1.5,…
