    Exercise 1: T

    Suppose that as a result of an improvement in technology

    the producer's supply change from:

    (S1) Qs=-40+20P to (S2) Qs=-10+20P1. From S1 to S2, Supply increase or decrease? Why?

    2. Derive this producer's old and new supply schedule?

    3. On one axes, draw this producer's supply curves before

    and after the improvement in technology?

    4. How much of commodity X does this producer supply at

    the price of 4$ before and after the improvement in technology?
