Exam 15: A: Equilibrium

In a crowded city far away, the civic authorities decided that rents were too high. The long-run supply function of two-room rental apartments was given by q = 14 + 3p and the long-run demand function was given by q = 260 - 4p, where p is the rental rate in crowns per week. The authorities made it illegal to rent an apartment for more than 30 crowns per week. To avoid a housing shortage, the authorities agreed to pay landlords enough of a subsidy to make supply equal to demand. How much would the weekly subsidy per apartment have to be to eliminate excess demand at the ceiling price?

Suppose that King Kanuta from Problem 11 demands that each of his subjects give him 2 coconuts for every coconut that they consume. The king puts all of the coconuts that he collects in a large pile and burns them. The supply of coconuts is given by S(p_s) = 100p_s, where p_s is the price received by suppliers. The demand for coconuts by the king's subjects is given by D(p_d) = 2,666.67 - 100p_d, where p_d is the price paid by consumers. In equilibrium, the price received by suppliers will be

In a crowded city far away, the civic authorities decided that rents were too high. The long-run supply function of two-room rental apartments was given by q = 17 + 4p and the long-run demand function was given by q = 304 - 5p, where p is the rental rate in crowns per week.

In Problem 6, the demand function for Schrecklichs is 200 - 4P_S - 2P_L and the demand function for LaMerdes is 200 - 3P_L - P_S, where P_S and P_L are respectively the price of Schrecklichs and LaMerdes. If the world supply of Schrecklichs is 140 and the world supply of LaMerdes is 180, then the equilibrium price of Schrecklichs is

The authorities made it illegal to rent an apartment for more than 30 crowns per week. To avoid a housing shortage, the authorities agreed to pay landlords enough of a subsidy to make supply equal to demand. How much would the weekly subsidy per apartment have to be to eliminate excess demand at the ceiling price?

In a crowded city far away, the civic authorities decided that rents were too high. The long-run supply function of two-room rental apartments was given by q = 20 + 5p and the long-run demand function was given by q = 271 - 2p, where p is the rental rate in crowns per week. The authorities made it illegal to rent an apartment for more than 23 crowns per week. To avoid a housing shortage, the authorities agreed to pay landlords enough of a subsidy to make supply equal to demand. How much would the weekly subsidy per apartment have to be to eliminate excess demand at the ceiling price?
