If we as individuals would continue to spend more than we made, we would sooner or later have to pay up or go bankrupt. Our government is in the same position or will be unless we get serious about our liabilities and reduce expenditures enough to reduce the deficits or increase revenues enough to pay our bills and have some left over to pay the old bills. Evaluate this statement.

An increase in the market price of men's haircuts, from $16 per haircut to $26 per haircut, initially causes a local barbershop to have its employees work overtime to increase the number of daily haircuts provided from 20 to 25. when the $26 market price remains unchanged for several weeks and all other things remain equal as well, the barbershop hires additional employees and provides 40 haircuts per day. what is the short-run price elasticity of supply? nothing (your answer should have two decimal places.) what is the long-run price elasticity of supply? nothing (your answer should have two decimal places.)
