Suppose the price elasticity of supply for a product is 0.3 in the short run and 1.2 in the long run. If an increase in the demand for the product causes the price of the product to increase by 20%, then the quantity supplied of the product will increase by how much?

Suppose an economy is in long-run equilibrium. An increase in consumption expenditure will:

A) decreases both the price level and the real gross domestic product in the long run.

B) increase the price level in the long run but have no effect on real gross domestic product.

C) shift the short-run aggregate supply curve rightward and increase both the price and real output in the long run.

D) shift the aggregate demand curve rightward and increase the real output in the long run.

Currently, at a price of $2 each, 300 popsicles are sold per day in the perpetually hot town of Rostin. Consider the elasticity of supply. In the short run, a price increase from $2 to $4 is unit-elastic (Es = 1). In the long run, a price increase from $2 to $4 has an elasticity of supply of 1.5. (Hint: Apply the midpoints approach to the elasticity of supply.)

How many popsicles will be sold/supplied each day in the short run if the price rises to $4 each?

How many popsicles will be sold/supplied per day in the long run if the price rises to $4 each?
