The supply of homes is = 4 β 15, where w is the average wage of construction
workers in dollars per hour and P is in hundreds of thousands of dollars. Demand is = 100 β
2 + 10, where m is median family income in thousands of dollars.
a) Solve for the equilibrium price and quantity if m=40 and w=20.
b) Draw the supply and demand curves and label the equilibrium price and quantity.
Now, suppose the supply of housing in the short run is the maximum of = 4 β 15 and
what is already in place (given by your answer to a), so supply is βkinkedβ at the quantity already
in place. Further, suppose income decreases from 40 to 30 due to a recession.
c) Draw the kinked short run supply curve and the new demand curve at the lower income level
and label the equilibrium price and quantity with reduced demand. Solve for the equilibrium
price.
d) If demand stays depressed, what would the new long run equilibrium price and quantity be? In
the long run, = 4 β 15, since given enough time even the quantity of housing can fall.
Describe how the market would get from the short run situation of part c to this point.
e) Describe the impact of the recession is on the market for NEW single-family homes and
construction employment based on your work in c and d. Similarly, describe the impact on the
construction industry if demand recovers. Macroeconomists refer to these effects of the
construction industry as accelerator effects. Why do you think that is, based on your work?

(30 total points) suppose a firmβs production function is given by q = l1/2*k1/2. the marginal product of labor and the marginal product of capital are given by: mpl = 1/ 2 1/ 2 2l k , and mpk = 1/ 2 1/ 2 2k l . a) (12 points) if the price of labor is w = 48, and the price of capital is r = 12, how much labor and capital should the firm hire in order to minimize the cost of production if the firm wants to produce output q = 18?
