DEMAND AND SUPPLY FUNCTIONS TO
DETERMINE EQUILIBRIUM PRICE AND QUANTITY
ILLUSTRATION
The demand and supply equation for a commodity, (in a free market) are giving as:
Qd = 10- 2p
QS = 4p-8
- Given that p is in Naira, Qd and QS are in kg, determine
- The equilibrium price and
- The equilibrium quantity
- i. if the price (p) were to be N4.00 what will be the excess supply?
ii. If the price is fined at N2.00, what will be the excess demand?
Solution
Qd = QS at equilibrium: if Qd= 10-2p and QS = 4p-8 Then:
10-2p = 4p-8
10+8 = 4p+2p
2020 = 6p
P = =N3
1+p =N3 using the Qd i.e.
10-2p
10-2(3)
10-6=4
Therefore the equilibrium price = N3 and the equilibrium quantity is 4kg.
(2) It price is find at N4.00
Qd = 10-2(4)
= 10-8 =2kg
QS = 4p-8
= 4(4)-8
= 16-8 =8kg
Excess supply = 8kg -2kg =6kg
(ii) If price is find at N2.00
Qd = 10-2(2)
= 10-4=6kg
= 4(2)-8=0
Excess demand = 6-0 = 6kg
Price system: it is a system that determines the rate at which goods and services are produced exchanged and distributed.
Importance of the price system
- It allocates scare resources to the maximum usage
- It determines demand
- It determines supply
- It influences production pattern and type
- It can be used to regulate the consumption pattern of consumes
- It encourages exchange as well as solve the problem. It borty system trade.
