Data Interpretation 2 — Graphs and Scenarios

Read the story, sketch the shift, and compute. These questions reward careful step-by-step reasoning over memorization.

Q1.

A graph shows demand shifting right along an upward-sloping supply curve. The new equilibrium has:

Multiple choice · Foundations

Q2.

Between two points on a supply curve, price rises 20% and quantity rises 10%. Supply is:

Multiple choice · Intermediate

Q3.

A market has Qd = 80 - 2P and Qs = 20 + P. A $6 price ceiling is imposed. The resulting shortage is:

Multiple choice · Advanced

Q4.

In a competitive market, total surplus is maximized at the quantity where:

Multiple choice · Intermediate

Q5.

A table shows a firm's output and total cost: (0,100),(1,100), (1,130), (2,150),(3,150), (3,180). The marginal cost of the 2nd unit is:

Multiple choice · Foundations

Q6.

From the same table, average total cost at Q=3 is:

Multiple choice · Foundations

Q7.

A demand curve passes through (P=10, Q=100) and (P=12, Q=90). Total revenue at P=10 vs P=12 shows demand is:

Multiple choice · Intermediate

Q8.

Two goods: when the price of A rises 10%, quantity of B demanded rises 15%. They are:

Multiple choice · Intermediate

Q9.

A subsidy of 2perunitshiftssupplydownby2 per unit shifts supply down by 2. If demand is Qd = 50 - P and supply was Qs = 10 + P, the new equilibrium quantity is:

Multiple choice · Advanced

Q10.

A Lorenz-curve style table shows the bottom 20% earning 5% of income and the top 20% earning 50%. This economy has:
