Title: Consider the market for corn. The supply of corn (m millions to bushels) IS given by Qs =2P. The ... Post by: s.h_math on Oct 24, 2022 Hi there.
This question is asking for consumer surplus. I know the equation is CS = ½ (base) (height), but how do I use that when there is no graph provided? 8. Consider the market for corn. The supply of corn (m millions to bushels) IS given by Qs =2P. The demand for corn is given by Qd = 12 — P. Consumer surplus at the competitive equilibrium is equal to a. 12 b. 14 c. 16 d. 18 e. It cannot be determined with the data given. Title: Consider the market for corn. The supply of corn (m millions to bushels) IS given by Qs =2P. The ... Post by: bio_man on Oct 24, 2022 Try 14
Title: Consider the market for corn. The supply of corn (m millions to bushels) IS given by Qs =2P. The ... Post by: s.h_math on Oct 24, 2022 Bioman, could you explain to me how you got the consumer surplus and producer surplus?
Title: Consider the market for corn. The supply of corn (m millions to bushels) IS given by Qs =2P. The ... Post by: bio_man on Oct 24, 2022 Well, I only showed/calculated the consumer surplus here, which is 14. I used the Qd and Qs as the x-axis variables (independent variable), and P as the dependent variable. Graphed them both, found the point of intersection. Above that point is the consumer surplus, as shown in the graph, and below is the other.
Does that help? Title: Consider the market for corn. The supply of corn (m millions to bushels) IS given by Qs =2P. The ... Post by: s.h_math on Oct 24, 2022 kind of..like how did you get 14

Title: Consider the market for corn. The supply of corn (m millions to bushels) IS given by Qs =2P. The ... Post by: s.h_math on Oct 24, 2022 there are 8 squares

Title: Consider the market for corn. The supply of corn (m millions to bushels) IS given by Qs =2P. The ... Post by: s.h_math on Oct 24, 2022 makes more sense now bio man, the last thing would be how you made the graph using the equation as there are no certain values to plug in.
Title: Consider the market for corn. The supply of corn (m millions to bushels) IS given by Qs =2P. The ... Post by: bio_man on Oct 24, 2022 To make a graph, you need an independent variable and dependent variable.
This of y=x+1 for example. This would form a straight line when graphed Title: Consider the market for corn. The supply of corn (m millions to bushels) IS given by Qs =2P. The ... Post by: s.h_math on Oct 24, 2022 right, so how were the lines formed on your graph? I know this sounds super dumb, but I'm just confused about how I would do it if I were given this question to solve.
Title: Consider the market for corn. The supply of corn (m millions to bushels) IS given by Qs =2P. The ... Post by: bio_man on Oct 24, 2022 Yeah for sure. So remember linear equations are
y=mx+b For Q=2P, it is the same as x=2y. Solve for y: y=(1/2)x (here, the slope "m" is 1/2 and the y-intercept is 0) For Q = 12 - p, it is the same as x=12-y. Solve for y: y=12-x (here, the slope "m" is -1, and the y-intercept is 12) Does that make more sense? Title: Consider the market for corn. The supply of corn (m millions to bushels) IS given by Qs =2P. The ... Post by: s.h_math on Oct 25, 2022 Yes that helps Bio man thank you
