Because of the shift in the world’s supply curve‚ domestic producers now produce from 0-Q3 and their revenue increases from g to g+a+b+c+h. Foreign producers now supply Q3-Q4‚ but even when their products now have a higher price‚ they have to pay the amount of the tariff to the government and thus‚ their revenue falls from h+i+j+k to only i+j.

Which owner has the largest producer surplus when the price of a ride is $17.50? Explain. Rick is the largest producer surplus from rides when the price is $17.50 a ride. At this price he sells 15 rides a day because the 15th ride costs him $17.50 to produce but Rick is willing to produce the 10th ride for its marginal cost‚ which is $15‚ so Rick’s producer surplus on this ride is $5. L ook at below the each producer surplus of each producer: Rick’s producer surplus = (base x height)/2 = (15 x 7

price is higher than what it would be at equilibrium‚ the suppliers (producers) are willing to supply more than the equilibrium quantity. They will supply where their marginal cost is equal to the price floor‚ or where the supply curve intersects the price floor line. As you might have guessed‚ this creates a problem. There is less quantity demanded (consumed) than quantity supplied (produced). This is called a surplus. If the surplus is allowed to be in the market then the price would actually drop

What are Costs? * Goal of a firm is to maximize profit * Total Revenue = Q x P * Total Cost = market value of inputs firm uses in production * Profit = TR – TC * Costs of production = opportunity costs of output of goods and services * Explicit costs = input costs that require outlay of money by firm * i.e. $1000 spent on flour = opportunity cost of $1000 because can’t be spent elsewhere * Implicit costs = input costs that do not require outlay of money by firm
