What are the equilibrium price and quantity in the ice cream market? Graph supply and demand curves.
(8) Demand and supply curves can also be represented by equations. Suppose that the quantity demanded, Qd, is represented by: . The quantity supplied Qs is represented by:
Qs = P.
a. Find the equilibrium price and quantity. (HINT: Set Qd = Qs and solve for the price, P, and then plug your result back into either of the original equations to find Q).
b. Suppose that the price is $20. Determine Qd and Qs. Is there a surplus or shortage?
