If demand for toys is QD = 500 – 10P and supply is Qs = 100 + 10P, answer the following questions using calculus:
a. If the government imposes a restriction that price per toy cannot exceed $15, calculate the ΔCS, ΔPS, and DWL from the price ceiling.
b. If the government imposes a restriction that price per toy cannot be lower than $18, calculate the ΔCS, ΔPS, and DWL from the price floor.
c. If the government promises toy producers a price of $25 per unit and will buy up any excess supply to support that price, calculate the ΔCS, ΔPS, and DWL from the price support.
d. If the government promises toy producers a price of $22 per unit and will pay the difference between $22 and the price producers receive from consumers, calculate the ΔCS, ΔPS, and DWL from the price support.

Inventory Costing Methods-Periodic Method The following information is for the Bloom Company for 2012; the company sells just one product: Units Unit Cost Beginning Inventory 200 $70 Purchases: Feb. 11 500 $74 May 18 400 76 Oct. 23 100 80 At December 31, 2012, there was an ending inventory of 360 units. Assume the use of the periodic inventory method. Calculate the value of ending inventory and the cost of goods sold for the year using (a) first-in, first-out, (b) last-in, first-out, and (c) the weighted-average cost method. Round your answers to the nearest dollar.

Using the Case Study below, answer the following questions
Case Study
Some of the largest economic fluctuations in the U.S. economy since 1970 have originated in the oil fields of the Middle East. Crude oil is a key input into the production of many goods and services, and much of the world’s oil comes from Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and other Middle Eastern countries. When some event (usually political in origin) reduces the supply of crude oil flowing from this region, the price of oil rises around the world. U.S. firms that produce gasoline, tires, and many other products experience rising costs, and they find it less profitable to supply their output of goods and services at any given price level. The first episode of this sort occurred in the mid-1970s. The countries with large oil reserves got together as members of OPEC (the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries). OPEC reduced production and oil approximately doubled in price from 1973 to 1975.
Almost the same thing happened a few years later. In the late 1970s, the OPEC countries again restricted the supply of oil to raise the price. From 1978 to 1981, the price of oil more than doubled. In 1986, squabbling broke out among members of OPEC. Member countries reneged on their agreements to restrict oil production. In the world market for crude oil, prices fell by a half. This fall in oil prices reduced costs to U.S. firms. In recent years, the world market for oil has not been as important a source of economic fluctuations. Part of the reason is that conservation efforts and changes in technology have reduced the economy’s dependence on oil.
a. Explain the short-run and long-run impacts of oil price increase on output and price level in the U.S. during 1973-1975 periods using the model of aggregate demand and aggregate supply. No need to draw the AD-AS diagram. Explain in words.
Note (required in the answer) : 1) what would happen to the AS-AD diagram in the SHORT RUN (FIRST PARAGRAPH)
2) link it back with the impacts of oil price increase on output and price level in the U.S. during 1973-1975 (FIRST PARAGRAPH)
3) what would happen to the AS-AD diagram in the long run (SECOND PARAGRAPH)
4) link it back with the impacts of oil price increase on output and price level in the U.S. during 1973-1975 (SECOND PARAGRAPH)
b. Explain the short-run and long-run impacts of oil price fall on output and price level in the U.S. in 1986, using the model of aggregate demand and aggregate supply. No need to draw the AD-AS diagram. Explain in words.

The Happy Holiday Touring Company has developed a novel way of selling vacation packages. The company would like to promote this idea over the next few years before the competition creates their own vacation clubs, however there is some concern regarding a projected recession and the effect this may have on their share price.
Earnings and dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 1% in the first year, -2% in the
second year and at a constant rate of 3% thereafter. The required rate of return for this
industry is 5%. Last year, the company paid a dividend of $1.10 per share.
(Timeline required.)
Required:
(***Carry all decimal places. Round final answers to 2 decimal places.)
(1) What is the price of Happy Holiday Touring Company shares today?
(2) What is the share price (estimated) at the end of the first year?
(3) What dividend yield, capital gains yield, and total yield, should an investor in this company expect for the first year?
