Doss [256]

Answer:

Answer explained below

Explanation:

decrease in consumer surplus = 0.5(initial number of bottles - final number)*(final price-initial price) + (final price-initial price)*(final number)

where initial number of bottles = 25

final number of bottles = 15

initial price = $390

final price = $390

substituting these values, we have

- decrease in consumer surplus = 0.5(25-15)(450-390) + (450-390)15 = 1200

Consumer surplus decreases by 1200

- Consumers will buy the good as long as marginal benefit is greater than or equal price.

Thus quantity demanded will be 2 from the table

Consumer surplus = 240- market price = 240 -220= 20

Consumers total benefit = 220*quantity demanded = 220*2= 440
