Let's Assume Two Hypothetical Supply and Demand Equations: QD 40-4p, Qs - 20+6p.
Let's Assume Two Hypothetical Supply and Demand Equations: QD 40-4p, Qs - 20+6p.
(2)
1 .Determine the equilibrium price and quantity and draw demand and supply curves?
QD=QS Qs=-
Price Qd=40-4P 20+6P
So, 40-4p=-20+6p
4 24 4
40+20=6p+4p 5 20 10
6 16 16
60=10p
7 12 22
P=6 8 8 28
9 4 34
Substitute p=6 in equation.
10 0 40
Eq=40-4(6)
Eq=16
Therefore Ep=6, Eq=16
B. Determine AR, MR, and TR?
dTR TR
Q=40-4p MR¿ ( 10 Q−0.25Q 2) AR¿
dQ Q
Q-40=-4p MR=10-0.5Q AR=(10 Q−0.25 Q2 )/Q
4p=40-Q
P=-1/4+ 40/4 AR=10-0.25Q
P=-0.25Q+10
P=10-0.25Q (inverse demand function)
TR=PxQ
TR= (10-0.25Q) Q
TR=10Q-0.25Q2
TR=10Q-0.252 TR= p x Q
TC=10Q2+Q+125 p= (10Q-0.25Q2)/Q
10-0.5Q=20Q+1 P=10-0.25(0.44)
10-1=20Q+0.5Q P=10-0.11
9=20.5Q P=9.89
Q=9/20.5
Q=0.44 (output)
