============
(1i)
Qd = 45 – 3p
Qs = 20 + 2p
Qd = Qs
45-3p = 20+2p
Collect like term
45-20 = 2p+3p
25=5p
Divide both side by 5
5p/5 = 25/5
P= #5
Equilibrium price = #5
(1ii)
Qd = 45 – 3(5)
Qd = 45 – 15
Qd = 30unit
Qs = 20+2p
Qs = 20+2(5)
Qs = 20+10
Qs = 30unit
(1iii)
When price is #12
Qd=45-3p
45-3(12)
45-36
=9
As=20+2p
20+2(12)
20+24
=44
Excess supply is 35

A balance of payments disequilibrium is a situation where the value of a country’s imports are greater than its exports, creating a deficit in the current account and leading to a net outflow from the country’s circular flow of income.
(6ii)
-Causes of Balance of payment disequilibrium
(i) Social Factors:
(a) Changes in fashions, tastes and preferences of the people bring disequilibrium in BOP by influencing imports and exports
(b) High population growth in poor countries adversely affects their BOP because it increases the needs of the countries for imports and decreases their capacity to export.
(ii) Political Factors:
Experience shows that political instability and disturbances cause large capital outflows and hinder Inflows of foreign capital.
(iii) Economic Factors:
(a) Imbalance between exports and imports. (It is the main cause of disequilibrium in BOR), (b) Large scale development expenditure which causes large imports,
(c) High domestic prices which lead to imports,
(d) Cyclical fluctuations (like recession or depression) in general business activity,
(e) New sources of supply and new substitutes.
-Types of Balance of payment disequilibrium:
(i) Long-run Disequilibrium: The long-term disequilibrium thus refers to a deep- rooted, persistent deficit or surplus in the balance of payments of a country. It is secular disequilibrium emerging on account of the chronologically accumulated short-term disequilibria — deficits or surpluses.
(ii) Structural Disequilibrium: It emerges on account of structural changes occurring in some sectors of the economy at home or abroad which may alter the demand or supply relations of exports or imports or both.
