Studentka2010 [4]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Price

The price in the short-run will decrease because with less marginal costs, producers would produce more goods and services which would shift the supply curve to the right. The new intersection with the demand curve will be at a lower price.

Quantity

As said above, producers would produce more goods and services which means that the quantity supplied will increase.

Profit

This is a competitive market. Each firm will earn zero profits because the drop in price will match the drop in marginal costs to ensure that firms are not making anything extra.

When the price of a bond is above the equilibrium price, there is excess ___ in the bond market and the price will ___.
Setler [38]
C. When price is too high, people are less willing to purchase the good, so demand is lower when price is higher. (Demand curve is always slopping downwards as a result). As the price is high, producers are more willing to sell their goods (I.e. bonds) which will give them more money per unit good being sold. This will result in Quantity Supplied (Qs) being greater than Quantity Demanded (Qd), and so, there is a surplus of bonds in the market. This will cause a downward pressure to apply on price, so that Qd = Qs eventually.

Hope this helps!
