1. Suppose that the demand curve for a particular high-end designer purse in a medium-sized city is given by P = 600 – 0.01Q? and supply is P 100+0.04Q², where price is in dollars and quantity is in numbers of %3D purses. a. Find the equilibrium price and quantity. h. Calsulate the consumer and producer surplus at the equilibrium price.
