Please written by computer source Suppose that the demand curve for a product is given by Q = 100 −10p and the supply curve is Q = 10p. Assume that income effects (elasticities) are small so consumer surplus is a good measure of consumer welfare. (a) What is the equilibrium price and quantity with no distortions? (b) The government imposes a tax of $2.00 per unit sold. What is the new equilibrium quantity? Sketch the market equilibrium in a graph. (c) Given the tax what is the change in consumer surplus? What is the change in producer surplus? What is the change in government revenue? What is the net Dead Weight Loss from the tax? (d) Say the government proposes to use the revenue from the tax to pay for snacks in our last ECON 312A lecture. The total social benefits from the snacks would be $82.00. Will the tax increase overall welfare if the revenue is used to buy the snacks? What is the dollar value of the net gain or loss to society?
The attached figure shows Rosa's demand for ice cream. If the price of ice cream were $2 per litre, then Rosa's consumer surplus for the 4th litre: (a) Is greater than the surplus for the 8th litre. b) Is the same as the surplus on the 8th litre. c) Is less than the surplus on the 8th litre d) It could be greater than, equal to or less than the surplus of the 8th litre. Note: Please make your calculations to get the correct answer

B. the equilibrium price will increase due to excess demand at the old equilibrium price level. 100 S₂ C. consumer surplus will decrease due to decrease in the market price. D. the equilibrium quantity will decrease due to excess demand at the old equilibrium price level.
Question 3 Suppose the demand for a product is given by Q-100-5P, where Qp is quantity per year measured in kilogram and P is the price in AUD per kilogram. The supply curve for this product is given by Qs=4P-8. Answer the following questions and provide a graph illustration. a) Determine the equilibrium price? b) Calculate the elasticity of demand and supply at the equilibrium price. c) Determine the consumer surplus and producer surplus at the equilibrium price? d) Suppose that the government imposes a floor price of A$15 and promises to buy any surplus (e.g., Q³- QD) on the market. Determine the new consumer surplus, the new producer surplus, and the government expenditure of this policy e) Instead of using the floor price, now the government imposes a A$3 tax on each kg sold, determine the market price after having this tax policy. f) Calculate the consumer surplus, producer surplus and tax revenue. g) Using the concepts of demand and supply elasticity, predict which party, the…

Draw a graph to show this market and compute for consumer surplus, producer surplus and market surplus
The demand function for a certain product is? = 86 − ?2and the supply function is? = ?2 + 6? + 30where p is in millions of dollars and x is the number of thousands of units. Find the equilibriumpoint (x, p), then find the consumer’s surplus and producer’s surplus. Round your answer to thenearest unit (the nearest million dollars).
Suppose that last year the equilibrium price and the quantity of good X were $10 and 5 million pounds. Because of strong demand this year, the equilibrium price and the quantity of good X are $12 and 7 million pounds, respectively. Assuming that the supply curve of good X is linear, what happened to producer surplus in the market? A B Producer surplus increased from $12.5 million to $49 million. Producer surplus increased from $12.5 million to $24.5 million. Producer surplus increased from $3 million to $7 million. Producer surplus increased from $4.2 million to $5.6 million. C D
