Consider a market for widgets. The inverse market demand for widgets can be represented by: P=-0.08Q + 20. The inverse market supply for widget production can be represented by: P = 0.06Q + 6. a. Find equilibrium price and quantity of widgets in the competitive market? b. What are the consumer and producer surpluses associated with this equilibrium? Show them graphically. c. If each case of widget were sold at $9 (price ceiling), determine the amount of the shortage or surplus that would result. Compute the consumer surplus (CS) and producer surplus (PS) in this situation. Again, show them graphically. d. What is the value of total welfare in (b) and (c)? Calculate the deadweight loss caused by the price ceiling.
