In fact you are the best. I will like you to make a video on how tax is shared between consumers and producers and also how to calculate it

I need some help. i have a similar example, but i have only given supple and deman equation of the lines. How can i calculate monopsony deadweight loss😥

[@rraehaneh]

Hello! Sorry if this question sounds stupid but how abt ceiling price? Which part of it is the dwl?

[@ThinkEcon]

Not a stupid question at all! We do have a video about price ceilings where I highlight the DWL section on a graph. You should check it out if you get the chance!

[@ayeshafaheem4467]

from where did the supply and demand equations came and what is 5p?

[@ThinkEcon]

The supply and demand equations will always be given for the problem, so these are just hypothetical equations to illustrate the steps to solving!

[@yousrachouihi5306]

what would be the new consumer and producer surplus

[@ThinkEcon]

The area of the green and pink sections respectively!

[@Arturo-hc9pl]

Is calculating deadweight lost the same think as calculating over and under production?

[@ThinkEcon]

They’re similar, but not the same. DWL occurs any time a market is out of equilibrium. Over and under production are just two possibilities for disequilibrium.

[@Arturo-hc9pl]

@@ThinkEcon thanks ❤️

[@ovieomuoreh8440]

Where did you get 60 from the triangle

[@ThinkEcon]

Great question! It's the height of the DWL triangle. Looking at the Quantity axis it's the difference between 180 and 120. Hope this helps!

[@respectydhdjxh1977]

what about with price ceiling?

[@ThinkEcon]

It's the same process, but the DWL would be above the price ceiling!
