How much producer surplus is created with the price floor? Show your calculations.
The Chairman of Production's Office buys any barrels of gosum berries that the producers are not able to sell. With the price floor, the producers sell 300 barrels per month to consumers, but the producers, at this high price floor, produce 700 barrels per month. How much money does the Chairman of Production's Office spend on buying up surplus gosum berries? Show your calculations.
The Emperor of Gondwanaland must collect taxes from the people to pay for the purchases of surplus gosum berries by the Chairman of Production's Office. As a result, total surplus (producer plus consumer) is reduced by the amount the Chairman of Production's Office spent on buying surplus gosum berries. Using your answers for parts d, e, and f, what is the total surplus when there is a price floor? Show your calculations.
How does this compare to the total surplus without a price floor from part c?
