Question
Consider the demand function for processed pork in Canada,
Qd = = 270.00 - 12p +20p + 3pc +0.002Y
The supply function for processed pork in Canada is:
Qs
p is the price of pork
Q is the quantity of pork demanded
(measured in millions of kg per year)
Solve for the equilibrium price and quantity for pork.
The equilibrium price of pork is $
rounded to two decimal places.)
= 234.00 + 36p - 60ph
Pp is the price of beef = $4 per kg
Pc is the price of chicken = $3 per kg
Y is the income of consumers = $12,500
Ph is the price of a hog = $1.50 per kg
and the equilibrium quantity of pork is
million kg per year. (Enter numeric responses using real numbers
