Economics Policy Analysis Through Supply and Demand

Explore how price controls reshape the electric vehicle market by considering equilibrium price at 2,500 per EV and the effects of price ceilings and floors driven by buyers and manufacturers.

Price ceilings below equilibrium bind the market, creating shortages as demand exceeds supply, illustrated by 200 demanders and 150 EVs.

This case study shows how a pizza shop used advanced math questions to ration scarce pizzas during Shanghai's 2022 lockdown, a scenario resembling a price ceiling.

Rent control acts as a binding price ceiling in urban housing, lowering rents in the long run while creating shortages as supply and demand adjust, dampening investment and maintenance.

Explore how New York City rent control, a binding price ceiling, creates housing shortages, reduces maintenance, and fuels a black market, illustrating demand and supply in housing markets.

Explore tax incidence in the electric vehicle market, showing how the burden splits between buyers and manufacturers within a supply-and-demand framework.

A $50 tax on ev sellers shifts the supply curve left, raises the equilibrium price, reduces quantity, and causes buyers and sellers to share the tax burden.

Lecture explains how a buyer tax shifts demand left, lowers price and quantity, and creates tax wedge shared by buyers and sellers, whether the tax is on buyers or sellers.
