Suppose that the market demand in a perfectly competitive industry is given by, Qd = 7000 – 500 p and the market supply function is given by, Qs = 4000 +250 P. Find the market equilibrium price.

Answer»

Equilibrium is determined by the condition, 

Qd = Qs. 

In this example, 

7000-500 p = 4000 +250 p 

7000-4000 = 250 p + 500 p 

3000 = 750 P

\(\therefore P = \frac{3000}{750} = 4\)

Therefore, the equilibrium price in the market is ₹ 4.

700 - 500P = 4000 + 250P

7000 - 4000 = 250 P + 500 PP

3000 = 750 P

\(\therefore P = \frac{3000}{750} = 4\)
