Consider a market consisting of two farms producing same quality of jowar. The market demand curve and the market supply curve for rice are given by: qD = 250 – p qS = 150 + p At price of 125, there will be |
Equilibrium Excess Demand Excess Supply Can’t Say |
Excess Supply |
The correct answer is option 3: Excess Supply Putting p = 125 in both equations of demand and supply. Qd= 250-p =250-125 = 125. Qs = 150+p = 150 + 125 = 275. Since supply is greater than demand, there will be excess supply of 150 (275-125) at the price of 125. |
