Markets provide the efficient amount of a good or service when <span>externalities and public goods are absent.
Externalities in this case refers to an unpredictable occurence such as natural disasters, and public goods refers to the goods that given from the government for lower or higher than the market price</span>
The market demand curve would be 1000 - 0.125Q.
<h3>How to calculate the demand curve?</h3>
It should be noted that the market demand curve will be the sum of the individual demand curve.
The market demand curve will be calculated thus. Mary’s demand curve is 5P = 5000 – 1.25QM. Here, p = 1000 - 0.25QM
Jack’s demand curve for donuts is given by P = 1000 – 0.5QJ. Helen’s demand curve is given by QH = 2000 – 2P. This will be P = 1000 - 0.5QH.
The slope will be:
= 0.5 × 0.25
= 0.15
The demand function of Jack and Helen are the same. The demand curve will be 1000 - 0.125Q.

Answer:
In a static storage area each product is assigned a specific area, whereas in dynamic storage, product locations and fluid and as such are subject to change.
Answer and Explanation:
I will go through each and every option explaining the reasons and what option would be the best:
The (a) part says 'difference in wages will eventually disappear since a haircut is a homogeneous good' - This is not true because even though it is an homogeneous product, some customers do have a strong preference for barbers who are not going bald. Therefore, they know their worth and they would want to capitalize on that and get paid just a bit more than bald barbers.
The (b) part says 'barbershops that hire barbers with hair will be able to charge a higher price for a haircut to those consumers who have a strong preference for barbers with hair'. - If the barbershop charges higher price for barbers that have hair then the customers will prefer bald barbers as the questions mentions that there is high competition and since it is an homogeneous, customers would be willing to save money and get their haircut from some other barber.
The (c) part says 'barbershops that hire bald barbers will always be much more profitable' - Not necessarily. The reason is that some customers have a strong preference for barbers who are not bald and therefore, that would help barbershops who have barbers with hair to be a bit more profitable as some additional customers would want their services.
The (d) part says 'barbershops that hire barbers with hair will always be much more profitable' - This is the best option and the reason for it is because some customers have a strong preference for barbers with hair and that would help the barbershop to earn more. They would have the customers who already indifferent to whoever cuts their hair and in addition to that, they would also have the customers who have their preference.
Hence the answer is D.
