Suppose that there are three plots of mountain resort land available for sale in Niseko and six potential buyers, each interested in purchasing one plot. Assume that all of the plots are basically indistinguishable and that the minimum selling price of each is $595,000. The following table lists each potential buyer's willingness and ability to purchase a plot of land.

Which of these people will purchase one of the three mountain resort plots? Check all that apply.
Now, assume that the three mountain plots have been sold to the people that you indicated in the previous section. Suppose that a few weeks after the last of those mountain plots is sold, another basically identical mountain plot goes on the market for sale at a minimum price of $582,500. This fourth plot     be sold, because    will purchase it from the seller for at least the minimum price.

The following graph presents the market for sweaters in 2015. Between 2015 and 2016, the equilibrium price of sweaters remained constant, but the equilibrium quantity of sweaters decreased. Given this information, you can conclude that between 2015 and 2016, the supply of sweaters    and the demand for sweaters    .
Make changes to the graph to illustrate your answer by showing the positions of the supply and demand curves in 2016.
Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther.`

13. How shifts in demand and supply affect equilibrium

Consider the market for pens. Suppose that new research has been published stating that the process of writing, erasing, and rewriting improves memorization, leading parents to avoid giving their children pens in favor of pencils. Further, the price of ink, a major input in the pen production process, has increased sharply.
On the following graph, labeled Scenario 1, indicate the effect these two events have on the demand for and supply of pens.
Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther.
Next, complete the following graph, labeled Scenario 2, by shifting the supply and demand curves in the same way that you did on the Scenario 1 graph.
Compare both the Scenario 1 and Scenario 2 graphs. Notice that after completing both graphs, you can now see a difference between them that wasn't apparent before the shifts because each graph indicates different magnitudes for the supply and demand shifts in the market for pens.
Use the results of your answers on both the Scenario 1 and Scenario 2 graphs to complete the following table. Begin by indicating the overall change in the equilibrium price and quantity after the shift in demand or supply for each shift-magnitude scenario. Then, in the final column, indicate the resulting change in the equilibrium price and quantity when supply and demand shift in the direction you previously indicated on both graphs. If you cannot determine the answer without knowing the magnitude of the shifts, choose Cannot determine.

True or False: When both the demand and supply curves shift, you can always determine the effect on price and quantity without knowing the magnitude of the shifts.

Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther.Your AnswerScenario 1DemandSupply012345678910109876543210PRICE (Dollars per pen)QUANTITY (M...
