cost is the new routes foregone. 2. From the table in the previous passage, construct a demand and supply schedule on a diagram and identify the equilibrium price and quantity. According to the passage, Steam Scot is operating at a market price of 4 pounds with passengers totaling 60,000 units. The equilibrium price and quantity is the market price at which the supply of product is equal to the demand for that product, in other words, there is no over-consumption or over-production of the item

CH2 1. Suppose the demand curve for a product is given by Q = 300 – 2P + 4I, where I is average income measured in thousands of dollars. The supply curve is Q = 3P – 50. a. If I = 25, find the market clearing price and quantity for the product. Given I = 25, the demand curve becomes Q = 300 ( 2P + 4(25), or Q = 400 ( 2P. Setting demand equal to supply we can solve for P and then Q: 400 ( 2P = 3P ( 50 P = 90 Q = 220. b. If I = 50, find the market
