B. Increase in demand, decrease in supply (3)_______________ (4)_______________
C. Decrease in demand, decrease in supply (5)_______________ (6)_______________
D. Decrease in demand, increase in supply (7)_______________ (8)_______________
E. Increase in demand, supply is constant (9)_______________ (10)_______________
F. Increase in supply, demand is constant (11)_______________ (12)_______________
G. Decrease in demand, supply is constant (13)_______________ (14)_______________

B. Assume that the supply function is equal to: Qs=60+10P, where price range is P1 to P5, derive the supply
schedule. P is the price of the product and Qs is the quantity supplied.
C. Plot the demand and supply schedules. Identify the equilibrium price and quantity.
D. Given the supply equation: Qs=60+10P and demand equation: Qd=500-100P, compute the amount of tax
that will be shouldered by the consumer and the amount of tax that will be shouldered by the seller.
