2)
Given
Qd = 30-3p
Qs = 6p-15
i)
At equilibrum
Qd = Qs
30-3p = 30-15
6p+3p= 30+15
9p= 45
p=45/9 = #5
hence, the equilibrum price is #5
solving for equilibrim quantity
Qd=30-3p
for p= #5
Qd=30-3(5)
= 30-15=15
Qd = 15
Quantity supplied at p=#5
Qs =6p-15
=6[5]-15
= 30-15=15
Qs=15
hence Qd = Qs = 15
Therefore Equilibrium Qantity is 15
ii)
At p=#700
S>D
6p-15 > 30 – 3p
S = 6p-15
=6(7)-15=42-15
s=27
D=30-3p
=30-3(7)=30-21
=9
S > D
= 27 > 9
Excess supply = 27-9
=18 units
iii)
Excess Demand
D > s
30-3p>6p-15
At fixed price p = #3.00
D = 30-3[3] = 30-9 = 21
S = 6(3) – 15 = 18-15 = 3
D > S
D1>3
Excess demand = 21-3
= 18units
Therefore excess demand = 18unit. At fixed price. #7.00(mo0
Excess supply is 18units e.d
fixed price is # 3.00
– Earning of foreign Exchange:
agriculture is a good source of foreign exchange earning because it canstitutes the main bulk of exports in Nigeria.
