output. It is essential to grasp a thorough understanding of the concept of economies of scale, as they can be a key component in deciding the optimal and equilibrium size of firms and thus the structure of industries, the level of output and their prices. The magnitude of economies of scale depends upon the nature of the industry, i.e. the type of product produced. Economies of scale can be further classified into internal…
change in price”. (158). Now, inelastic is defined as “when the percentage change in quantity demanded is less than the percentage change in price”. (158). We could observe the good of price inelastic and see the causes of the percent, which we eventually fall in demand or increase in prices. As the fall is approaching and winter around the corner, there's goods and services that need to be made before the prices rise even more, for example, oil, furnace services etc. Here are my…
Positive correlation: If the increase or decrease in one variable affects the increase or decrease in another variable, we say that the two variables are positively correlated. Negative correlation: If the increase or decrease in one variable affects the decrease or increase in another variable, we say that the two variables are negatively correlated. Correlation coefficient: It studies about the degree of the relationship between the two variables. Or it studies about the strength of the two…
Research question: How does the mass (grams[±0.1g]) on one side of a pulley affect the mass (grams), and create equilibrium? Hypothesis: If the differences in masses (grams{±0.1g}) on each side of the pulley increases, then the mass in the middle of the two pulleys will be required to increase, because they will have to balance out each other’s mass to establish equilibrium. If the mass (grams{±0.1g}) on a side of a pulley decreases, then the mass in the middle of the two pulleys will be…
Q2. What is an inferior good? If the price of an inferior good falls what can we say about the quantity consumed? Explain Definition Consumer’s demand for goods depend upon the level of income. Inferior goods are defined as goods for which quantity demanded decreases with an increase in consumer’s income and quantity demanded increases with a fall in consumer’s income. This happens when the goods have relatively expensive substitutes available whose demand increases when the consumer becomes…
a. Consumer surplus: Consumers are willing to pay a certain amount for a good or service. The variance in that price is considered consumer surplus. When the price is less than they are willing to pay, the amount (or quantity) of that good or service increase. When the price is higher than they are willing to pay, the amount (or quantity) of that good or service decreases. An example of consumer surplus is as follows: Consumers are willing to pay $1.00 for tuna fish. Tuna fish is…
1) Assume that the demand curve for an imported candy bar can be expressed as € PD = 4.60 − 0.0001Q, and the supply curve can be expressed as € PS = 0.2 + 0.0003Q. a) What is the price and quantity at which the market clears? The price and quantity at which the market clears is $3.50 and 11,000 respectively. b) What is the value of the consumer surplus and the producer surplus in this market? The consumer and producer surplus are $6,050 and $18,150 respectively. The overall benefit to society…
the supply and demand principles. As the change in price of a good or services, it will change in quantity supplied (movement along a supply curve) (text book ). When change in income, preferences or prices of other goods or services, it will change supply (shift of a curve). (text book ) The following example illustrates the simple idea on the affect of behavior for the individual firms/household in the market. Assuming as the demands of iPhone increase. Figure 1 Supply and Demand diagram…

Demand and Supply [Name of the Writer] [Name of the Institution] [Dated] Demand and Supply Q1. Demonstrate and explain how a demand and supply framework can be used to understand the reasons behind a real world example of a price change In a supply and demand framework price, and the quantity of the product are considered as endogenous variables, while everything else is considered t be exogenous (Käki, Salo, & Talluri, 2012, p. 93). We are going consider the example of beer. The graph below…
