Suppose the domestic supply (QS) and demand (QD) for scooters in China

1- Suppose the domestic supply (QS) and demand (QD) for scooters in China are given by the following set of equations:

QS = –25 + 10P

QD = 875 – 5P

a- Quantity Imported = 150, Quantity Produced = 475, Quantity Demanded = 625

b- Quantity Imported = 300, Quantity Produced = 625, Quantity Demanded = 925

c- Quantity Imported = 150, Quantity Produced = 625, Quantity Demanded = 475

d- Quantity Imported = 200, Quantity Produced = 525, Quantity Demanded = 725

2- Suppose the domestic supply (QS) and demand (QD) for scooters in China are given by the following set of equations:

QS = –25 + 10P

QD = 875 – 5P

Homework Answers

Answer #1

QS = –25 + 10P

QD = 875 – 5P

For equilibrium quantity and price

875-5P=-25+10P

900=15P

P=900/15=60 AND Q=875-5(60) = 575

Y axis intercepts for QD and QS will be :

When QD = 0, P = 875/5 = 175

When QS= 0,P = 25/10 = 2.5

1) When P=50

QD=875-5(50) = 625

QS=-25+10(50) = 475

Imports = 625-475=150

option(C)

2) PS before trade = 0.5*575*(60-2.5) = 16531.25

PS after trade at price = 50 = 0.5*475*(50-2.5) = 11281.25

so, PS decreases by 16531.25-11281.25 = 5250

option(D)

3) option(D)

p=60, q=575

4) CS before trade = 0.5*575*(175-60) = 33062.5

CS after trade = 0.5*625*(175-50) = 39062.5

so, CS increases by 39062.5-33062.5 = 6000

option(A)'

5) OC of producing cheese in US = 4/1 = 4 gallons of wine

option(B)
