Answer:
Equilibrium quantity: 145
Equilibrium price: $140
Explanation:
In order to find the answer, first we determine the current difference between quantity supplied and quantity demanded.
Quantity supplied - quantity demanded = difference
125 - 165 = -40
So we have a shortage of -40 units.
We have the information that a $1 increase in price increases supply by 2, and decreases demand by 2. Thus, in order to close the shortage, we need a $10 price increase, because this will raise supply by 20 units, and lower demand by 20 units as well, bringing the 40 gap to 0.
For this reason, the equilibrium quantity is 145 units, and the equilibrium price is $140.
Answer:
$10,000
Explanation:
Based on the information given we were told that the government contribution to the pension plan was the amount of $10,000 for year 1 which simply means the amount of $10,000 will be the pension expenditure for the general fund for year 1.
Therefore the pension expenditure for the general fund for year 1 will be $10,000.
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "D": Price will increase, and quantity will increase.
Explanation:
If a natural disaster cuts the supply for water in a region, bottled water will face an <em>increase in its quantity demanded</em> as a substitute. Besides, due to scarcity, the bottled water is likely to face an increase in its price, thus, the <em>equilibrium price of bottled water increases</em>.
The correct answer is the Coase theorem
Suppose that a large tree on Betty's property is blocking Chuck's view of the lake below. Betty accepts Chuck's offer to pay Betty $100 for the right to cut down the tree. This situation describes the Coase theorem.
