1. If the market price is $1.80, how many people will buy coffee? 2. How many units of coffee will be supplied to the market if the price is $1.60? 3. What will the equilibrium price of coffee be in this market? 4. Given the equilibrium price you noted in the previous question, how many units of coffee will actually be sold and purchased? 5. Again, assuming equilibrium in the market, how many units of coffee will Moe consume? 6. Again, assuming equilibrium exists in the market, how much total money will Moe spend on coffee? 7.

Remember people can't buy something that hasn't been supplied. And likewise, a firm can't sell something if nobody wants to buy it. . At the equilibrium price, the quantity supplied by the market exactly equals the quantity buyers want to buy at that price.
