Suppose the demand function for avocados is Q = 104 - 40p + 20tp + 0.01Y, where p is the price of avocados, pt is the price of tomatoes, and Y is average income, and the supply function for avocados is Q = 58 + 15p - 20pf, where pf is the price of fertilizer. Suppose pt = $0.80, Y = $4,000, and pf = $0.40. What is the equilibrium price and quantity of avocados? The equilibrium price of avocados is = $2.00 and the equilibrium quantity is Q = 80 units Suppose the government charges a $0.55 specific tax per avocado to be paid by consumers. With the tax, the equilibrium price of avocados is p = $1.60 and the equilibrium quantity is Q = 74 units.
