The price-demand equation for a particular flashlight is given
by p = 118 − 0.002x,
where x is the number of flashlights demanded
when the price is p dollars each. The
flashlight manufacturers will produce no flashlights if the price
is $76 or less, and they will
market 6,000 flashlights when the price is
$100 per flashlight. (Assume the price-supply equation is
linear.)
(a) Find the consumers' surplus for this commodity.
(b) Find the producers' surplus for this commodity.
