Supply and Demand Discussion
4444 unread replies.4444 replies.
Please think of an example from everyday life of an event that caused either the supply or the demand for a product to increase or decrease (please only shift one curve). Please take the time to think of a straightforward (easy) example; it will work much better.
Once you have your example, please complete the following steps for your discussion post:
write a short description of the event explaining if it caused the supply curve OR the demand to shift and in which direction (increase or decrease)
explain how the shift affected the quantity and price in the market for the product.
draw a graph showing:
the original supply and demand curves
the original equilibrium point
the original quantity and price (q1 and p1 are fine – you don’t need to add real prices or quantities)
how the curve shifted (right or left)
the new equilibrium point
the new quantity and price (q2 and p2 are fine)
*don’t forget to label both axes
**Hand-drawn graphs are totally fine. Please just take a picture and upload it to the discussion board.
**Videos are also great if you want to upload one.
**Please don’t forget to post a thoughtful comment to at least one of your classmate’s posts.
How to Embed Your Graph in Your Response

Draw a production possibilities frontier showing increasing opportunity cost of muffins in terms of cookies. (Draw your PPF on a piece of paper, take a picture with your phone, and upload the picture)
On your graph, please label the following points.
A: A point that is possible and efficient
B: A point that is possible but inefficient
C: A point that is not currently possible
D: On the graph, illustrate the effect of the discovery of a new, more efficient machine for producing flour, a resource needed to make both muffins and cookies, on this economy.

Inflation? Is it really that important?
Consumer Price Index (CPI) aka inflation number for December was reported earlier this month… In this thread below, I would like you to research what was the number reported, how significant it is for the economy? different industries? Why should we care about this at all?
When providing your answers, please make sure to reference official/government sources and feel free to include a table or figure in your response. You will be evaluated based on the amount of details and data provided to support your argument.

The market demand-and-supply functions of oranges are given below. Q refers
to millions of pounds of oranges/month, and p is the price per pound (cents).
Demand: p = 220 – 6Q
Supply: p = 120 + 4Q
(a) What is the market equilibrium quantity and price of oranges?
(b) Suppose the government subsidizes 25 cents/pound to orange consumers. What is the
new equilibrium quantity and price? (Hint: write down the new supply or demand function
first)
(c) At the new equilibrium, what is the price that consumers pay? What is the price that
farmers receive?
(d) What is the percentage of subsidy that consumers receive? What is the percentage of
subsidy that is pass-through to farmers?
(e) Plot all the supply and demand curves in the same graph of (Q, p) space. Label your
horizontal and vertical axis properly. Indicate the direction and the magnitude of shift of any
curves. Label the initial and new equilibriums (i.e., e1, e2), and their respective price and
quantity you found from (a) and (b).
(f) How many million dollars of subsidy that the government gives to farmers? (You should use
the information provided in Part (b); total subsidy = unit subsidy * quantity sold)
(g) Extra credit: Suppose the government subsidizes 25 cents/pound to orange farmers instead.
Repeat the analysis above and show how your answers change in (b), (c), (d) and (f),
respectively.

At what point does the business profit motive give way to the micro-economic needs of workers, consumers, communities and other stakeholders at the bottom of the food chain?
Time to pick a side. You must choose to prioritize:
1. overall business profit
or
2. the interests of the stakeholders with the least
…and then justify your selection.
Reminders:
-Post an APA-formatted, 2-page Word or RTF paper…and then substantiate your position per sound reasoning and a minimum of two (2) properly cited and referenced sources.

In Assignment 2, you will analyze the data collected in your GUIDES Worksheet. Now that you have researched the economic conditions of the target country, using the Indicators and other resources, you are ready to make a recommendation. You will present your conclusions and proposed next steps in an Executive Brief of three to four pages. In this document, you summarize your key findings, recommend a course of action, and provide a rationale for your proposal. Your home country data is an important benchmark for interpreting the data on the target country which you have been researching.
As an Executive Brief is a succinct business communication, it is helpful to make notes on your ideas and work through your recommendation before writing the final document. To prepare in this way, examine your data from Assignment 1 and make notes, using the prompts in the Sample Outline provided below. When you are ready to proceed with writing your Executive Brief, use the same Sample Outline to structure the sections of your Executive Brief document.
Attached is the sample outline to follow and the GUIDES worksheet with my previous work. The topic of this paper is the automobile industry in Japan and USA as my home country.
