If quantity demanded exceeds quantity supplied, what most likely needs to happen to achieve equilibrium?

Business
1 answer:
Jlenok [28]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The correct answer would be option C, The price needs to increase.

Explanation:

In order to maintain a balance or equilibrium, there should always be a balance between the quantity demanded and the quantity supplied. If quantity demanded exceeds quantity supplied, it means people are demanding the product more and the supply of that product is not meeting the demand. In this scenario when there is more demand of a product than supply, the price of the product should increase in order to create a balance between the quantity demanded and supplied, because it is the law of demand that when demand increases, the prices of the product also increases and vice versa. So to maintain the equilibrium, the price of the product should increase. In this way demand will decrease and will reach a point where demand will meet the supply of the product.

Assume Argentina has production possibilities to produce either 35 batches of apples or 70 batches of peaches using 100 worker h
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

40

Explanation:

Batches of apples produced in one hour = 35/100 = 0.35

Batches of peaches produced in one hour = 70/100 = 0.70

total hours it would take to produce 15 batches of apples = 15 / 0.35 = 42.86 =  43 hours

this would leave (100 - 43) 57 hours to make peaches

Batches of peaches that can be made in 43 hours = 57 x 0.7 = 39.9 = 40 batches

Cash flow in year 1 = 50,000

Cash flow in year 2 = 50,000

Cash flow in year 3 =80,000

Cash flow in year 4 =100,000

IRR = 13%

To find the IRR using a financial calculator:

scenarios as examples of elastic, inelastic, or unit elastic demand. When Ruko, a device used to stream movies at home, increase
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

Elastic demand

Unit elastic demand

Inelastic demand

Explanation:

Elasticity of demand measures the degree of responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price.

Elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded/ percentage change in price.

Denand is elastic if when price is increased, the quantity demanded changes more than the increase in price. Quanitity demanded is more sensitive to changes in price.

If price is increased, the quantity demanded falls and as a result the total revenue earned by sellers falls.

The elasticity of demand is usually greater than 1 when demand is elastic.

Demand is unit elastic if a change in price has the same proportional change on quantity demanded. The coefficient of elasticity is equal to one.

If price is increased, the quantity demanded changes by the same proportion so there's no change in total revenue of sellers.

Demand is inelastic if a change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded.

Coefficient of elasticity is usually less than one.

If price is increased, there is little or no change in the quantity demanded and as a result the revenue earned by sellers increase.

A firm currently produces 3,500 units of output per week. After an additional worker is hired, output rises to 3,750 units per w
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

C. $2

Explanation:

The marginal cost is the cost for producing an additional unit of the product. According to this and as the statement says that with the additional worker the output rises to 3,750, teh first thing is to find the number of additional units that were produced:

3,750-3500= 250

With the new worker, the firm produces an additional 250 units that cost $500 because this is the salary of the new worker and to calculate the cost of one additional unit you have to do the following:

250 units ⇒ $500

     1 unit  ⇒      x

x=( 1*500)/250= 2

The firm's short-run marginal cost is $2.
