16. If a surplus exists in a market, then we know that the actual price is a, above the equilibrium price, and quantity supplied is greater than quantity demanded. b. above the equilibrium price, and quantity demanded is greater than quantity supplied e below the equilibrium price, and quantity demanded is greater than quantity supplied d below the equilibrium price, and quantity supplied is greater than quantity demanded. 17. When a shortage exists in a market, sellers a. raise price, which increases quantity demanded and decreases quantity supplied until the shortage is eliminated (6. Jaise price, which decreases quantity demanded and increases quantity supplied until the shortage is eliminated. c. lower price, which increases quantity demanded and decreases quantity supplied until the shortage is eliminated. d. lower price, which decreases quantity demanded and increases quantity supplied until the shortage is eliminated. 18. The current price of blue jeans is $30 per pair, but the equilibrium price of blue jeans is S25 per pair. As a result, a) the quantity supplied of blue jeans exceeds the quantity demanded of blue jeans at the $30 price. b. the equilibrium quantity of blue jeans exceeds the quantity demanded at the $30 price. c. there is a surplus of blue jeans at the $30 price. d. All of the above are correct. 19. A decrease in input costs to firms in a market will result in a(n) 6. decrease in equilibrium price and an increase in equilibrium quantity. b. decrease in equilibrium price and a decrease in equilibrium quantity. c. increase in equilibrium price and a decrease in equilibrium quantity. d. increase in equilibrium price and an increase in equilibrium quantity 20. Suppose the income of buyers in a market for an inferior good decreases and a technological advancement occurs also. What would we expect to happen in the market? a. Equilibrium price would decrease, but the impact on equilibrium quantity would be ambiguous. b. Equilibrium quantity would increase, but the impact on equilibrium price would be ambiguous. c. Equilibrium quantity would decrease, but the impact on equilibrium price would be ambiguous. d. None of the above is correct. Good Luck!

Answer

16. Option d. When supply exceeds
the demand the price decreases.

17. Option b. As price and quantity
demanded are inversely related

18. Option a. As the price is
greater than equilibrium price

19. Option a.

20. Option b. With the increase in
income the quantity demanded for a good decreases for an inferior
good
