Problems and Applications Q10 A market is described by the following supply-and-demand curves 2s-2P 300-P The equibrium price is s and the equilibrium quantity is Suppose the government imposes a price ceiling of $90. This price celling is supplied will be ,and the market price will be Therefore, a price ceilling of $90 will result in The qu , and the quantity demanded will be Suppose the government imposes a price floor of $90. This price floor is supplied will be and the market price will be s Therefore, a price floor of $90 will result in The quant and the quantity demanded will be Instead of a price control, the government levies a tax on producers of $30. As a result, the new supply curve is s2(P-30) With this tax, the market price will be s the quantity supplied will be and the quantity demanded will be

Explanation / Answer

Qs=2P

Qd=300-P

For equilibrium

Qs=Qd

2P=300-P

P=100

Q=2*100=200

Answer:- The equilibrium price is:- $100

Equilibrium quantity is 200

Answer:- Suppose the government imposes a price ceiling of $90.

The price ceiling is:- binding price ceiling (as the price ceiling is below the equilibrium price)

And the market price will be:- $90

The quantity supplied will be = 2*90=180

And the quantity demanded will be:- 300-90=210

Therefore a price ceiling of $90 will result in :- Shortage of 30 units (210-180=30)

Answer:- Answer:- Suppose the government imposes a price floor of $90.

The price ceiling is:- Not binding price ceiling (as the price ceiling is lower than the equilibrium price)

And the market price will be:- $100 ( equal to equilibrium price)

The quantity supplied will be = 200

And the quantity demanded will be:- 200

Therefore a price floor of $90 will result in :- neither a shortage nor a surplus
