Can I get the answers to these with work shown? 2, 3, 4, and 5 only please.

1. The following two linear functions represent a market (thus one is a supply function, the other a demand function). Circle the answer closest to being correct. Approximately what will the quantity demanded be if the government controls the market price to be $1.50 (You must first find the market equilibrium price and quantity in order to see how the $1.50 relates to them)?

Q = 100 – 4.6P and Q = 75 + 6.2P

Qd=100-4.6P Qs=75+6.2P P=$1.50

Qd=Qs 100-4.6P=75+6.2P = 25=10.8P P=2.31

P=1.50 Qd=100-4.6P =100-4.6(1.5) =100-6.9 =93.1

2. There has been a change in the market (represented in 1 above). The change is represented by the following two equations. Circle the one correct conclusion that describes the market change.

Q = 85 + 6.2P and Q = 100 – 4.6P

3. Circle the function on the answer sheet that represents the marginal revenue (MR) function for this demand function: Q = 100 – 3P

4. Circle the quantity that maximizes total revenue (TR) for the marginal revenue (MR) function selected in number three (3).

5. If supply decreases and demand also increases, we can conclude that the new equilibrium:

Suppose that the demand curve for barley can be characterized by the equation P = 100 - 2Qd. Suppose further that price was $10.00 and a $10.00 tax is imposed on the market. a) How many barleys would be purchased at a price of $10.00? After tax? b) What is the amount of tax revenue generated by the tax? c) How much excess burden is generated by the tax? d) What is the amount of consumer surplus before and after the tax? What is the difference in consumer surplus? Is it equal to excess burden plus the tax revenue?

You are attending a conference of business leaders in Vancouver and you have been asked to defend the high tax regime in Canada. In the form of a speech, beginning with “Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,...” defend the high taxation of 31% national average in the country.

Use the cost/benefit analysis discussed in class as part of your defense. In the course of your defense, be sure to discuss at least two tax categories in support. You can also use the impressive economy/financial response of the Canadian government in the ongoing COVID-19 health crisis as part of your support. (Please note that one, two or three lines responses would not have enough details to give you good marks on this question. The more details the more chances of good marks.) .
