PROBLEM:

With the aid of supply and demand diagrams (you need an explicit diagram for each case), show and explain how and why we would expect prices and quantities to change in the market for Compact Discs (CDs) in each of the following situations when:

(a) Technical improvements lead to a fall in the cost of producing CDs.
(b) Technical improvements lead to a fall in the cost of producing MP3 players.
(c) Technical improvements lead to a fall in the cost of producing CD-players.
(d) Streaming music services, such as Spotify, AccuRadio, and Grooveshark, etc. become widely available
(e) Congress passes laws making streaming music services, such as Spotify, AccuRadio, and Grooveshark, etc. illegal.

With the aid of supply and demand diagrams demonstrate that any effective price controls (i.e., either price ceilings below the equilibrium price, or else price floors above the equilibrium price) in a competitive market will reduce the actual quantity that can be traded (i.e. bought and sold) in that market.

Draw a supply and demand diagram for each problem. Also, write WHY the curve (or curves) is (are) shifting based on the shift factors for demand and supply. What is happening to the equilibrium price and quantity in each problem? Treat each problem separately and always remember the concept of ceteris paribus. 2. Assume that soup is an inferior good.

a) Using diagrams and supply and demand concept, carefully explain the impact of each of the following on equilibrium price and quantity of certain products. i) Simultaneous decrease in price of raw material and decrease in income for a normal good (other things being equal). ii) Simultaneous increase in business taxes and an increase in consumer income for a normal good (other things being equal).
