Answer
1)
- The demand equation for fridge: P = a – b × Qd
∆𝑃
+ We have ( ∆𝑃=20, ∆𝑄𝑑=100)
∆𝑄𝑑
∆𝑃 20 1
=>b = = =
∆𝑄𝑑 100 5
∆𝑃
+ We have ,( ∆𝑃= 20, ∆𝑄𝑠= 100)
∆𝑄𝑠
∆𝑃 20 1
=>d = = =
∆𝑄𝑠 100 5
+ Substitute the values of d and P, Q of any point in the diagram:
1
100= 𝑐 + × 300 => c = 40
5
𝟏
Thus, the supply equation for fridge is P = 40 + × Qs (2)
𝟓
2)
3)
*) The quantity demanded for fridge decrease 300 units at each price
level:
∆𝑃
+ We have =( ∆𝑃=20, ∆𝑄𝑑′=100)
∆𝑄𝑑′
∆𝑃 20 1
b= = =
∆𝑄𝑑′ 100 5
1
100 𝑎 − × 700
5
=>a = 240
𝟏
Therefore, the new demand function for fridge is: P = 240 − × Qd’
𝟓
The market balances again when the quantity demanded (new) equals
the quantity supplied, or:
Qd’ = Qs
1200 – 5P = 5P – 200
P = PE’ = 140
4)
The government imposes a tax of $ 10 per one units of fridge sold, this
means the price will increase $10 per one units
1
The new supply function is P = 50 + QS’’ or QS’’ = 5P – 250
5
The market balances again when the quantity supplied (new) equals the
quantity demanded, or:
QS’’ = Qd
5P – 250 = 1500 -5P
P = PE’’ = 175
PE’’ = 175 => QE’’ = 625
5)
The government supports for the sellers the amount of $ 10 per one
units of fridge sold, the price will decrease $ 10 per one unit
1
The new supply function is P = 30 + QS’’ or QS’’ = 5P – 150
5
The market balances again when the quantity supplied (new) equals the
quantity demanded, or:
QS’’ = Qd
5P – 150 = 1500 - 5P
P = PE’’ = 165
PE’’ = 165 => QE’’ = 675
Exercise 2:
1)
The demanded curve will shift to the left compared to the former
(Because tax is decided by the government – one of the non-price
factors. If the Vietnamese personal income tax rates increase, the
demand will decrease)
2)
The supply curve will shift to the left of the former (Because when the
price of the input increases, the supply will decrease)
3)
- In this case, the supply curve will be shifted to the right and the demand
curve will be shifted to the left.
- As we can see, both the new equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity
move down to the lower left of the formal one.
