18) The demand and supply equations for the peach market are: Demand:ȱȱP = 24 - 0.5Q Supply:ȱȱȱȱȱP = -6 + 2.5Q where P = price per bushel, and Q = quantity (in thousands). a. Calculate the equilibrium price and quantity. b. Suppose the government guaranteed producers a price of $24 per bushel. What would be the effect on quantity supplied? Provide a numerical value. c. By how much would the $24 price change the quantity of peaches demanded? Provide a numerical value. d. Would there be a shortage or surplus of peaches? e. What is the size of this shortage or surplus?ȱȱProvide a numerical value

Answer: a. Quantity = 10 thousand bushels: {24 - 0.5Q = -6 + 2.5Q;ȱȱ30 = 3Q;ȱȱQ = 10} Price = $19: {P = 24 - 0.5(10);ȱȱȱP = 24 - 5;ȱȱP = $19} b. Quantity supplied would increase to 12 thousand bushels:ȱȱ{24 = -6 + 2.5Q;ȱȱ30 = 2.5Q; Q = 12} c. Quantity demanded would fall to zero bushels:ȱȱ{24 = 24 - 0.5Q;ȱȱ0 = -0.5Q; Q = 0} d. There would be a surplus. e. Surplus = 12,000 - 0 = 12 thousand bushels.

17) You are given the following market data for Venus automobiles in Saturnia. Demand: P = 35,000 - 0.5Q Supply:ȱȱȱȱP = 8,000 + 0.25Q where P = Price and Q = Quantity. a. Calculate the equilibrium price and quantity. b. Calculate the consumer surplus in this market. c. Calculate the producer surplus in this market.

Answer: a. Quantity = 36,000: {35,000 - 0.5Q = 8,000 + 0.25Q.; 27,000 = 0.75Q;ȱȱQ = 36,000.} Price = $17,000: {P = 35,000 - 0.5(36,000);ȱȱP = 35,000 - 18,000;ȱȱP = $17,000.} b. Consumer surplus = (0.5)($35,000 - $17,000) × 36,000 = $324 million c. Producer Surplus = (0.5)(17,000 - 8,000) × 36,000 = $162 million
