The demand function for an inferior good is Qd=a−bp and the supply function is Qs=c+ep, where a,b,c,a,b,c, and ee are positive constants.
A. Derive the market equilibrium price (p∗p∗) and quantity (Q∗Q∗) as functions of a,b.c,a,b.c, and ee.
B. Illustrate this equilibrium on a well-annotated graph. Label all axes, equilibrium points, intercepts, and slopes.
C. How would you expect aa to change (if at all), given a decrease in average consumer income. On a separate graph, illustrate graphically any change in the equilibrium price and quantity, intercepts, and slopes.
