op to $490 before a 2nd person would rent. Then p = $490 ? QD = 2. 15 Modeling Apartment Demand ?The lower is the rental rate p, the larger is the quantity of close apartments demanded p ? ? QD ?. ?The quantity demanded vs. price graph is the market demand curve for close apartments. 16 Market Demand Curve for Apartments p QD 17 Modeling Apartment Supply ?Supply: It takes time to build more close apartments so in this shortrun the quantity available is fixed (at say 100). 18 Market Supply Curve for Apartments p QS 100 19 Competitive Market Equilibrium ?“ low‖ rental price ? quantity demanded of close apartments exceeds quantity available ? price will rise. ?―high‖ rental price ? quantity demanded less than quantity available ? price will fall. 20 Competitive Market Equilibrium ?Quantity demanded = quantity available ? price will neither rise nor fall ?so the market is at a petitive equilibrium. 21 Competitive Market Equilibrium p QD,QS 100 22 Competitive Market Equilibrium p QD,QS pe 100 23 Competitive Market Equilibrium p QD,QS pe 100 People willing to pay pe for close apartments get close apartments. 24 Competitive Market Equilibrium p QD,QS pe 100 People willing to pay pe for close apartments get close apartments. People not willing to pay pe for close apartments get distant apartments. 25 Competitive Market Equilibrium ?Q: Who rents the close apartments? ?A: Those most willing to pay. ?Q: Who rents the distant apartments? ?A: Those least willing to pay. ?So the petitive market allocation is by ―willingnesstopay‖. 26 Comparative Statics ?What is exogenous in the model? –price of distant apartments –quantity of close apartments –ines of potential renters. ?What happens if these exogenous variables change? 27 Comparative Statics ?Suppose the price of distant apartment rises. ?Demand for close apartments increases (rightward shift), causing ?a higher price for close apartments. 28 Market Equilibrium p QD,QS pe 100 29 Market Equilibrium p QD,QS pe 100 Higher demand 30 Market Equilibrium p QD,QS pe 100 Higher demand causes higher market price。1 教材 Intermediate Microeconomics: A Modern Approach (Sixth Edition) by Hal R.

Monopolist does not rent all the close apartments. 100 47 Monopolistic Market Equilibrium p QD,QS Middle price Middle price, medium quantity demanded, larger revenue. Monopolist does not rent all the close apartments. 100 Vacant close apartments. 48 Perfectly Discriminatory Monopolistic Landlord ?Imagine the monopolist knew everyone‘s willingnesstopay. ?Charge $500 to the most willingtopay, ?charge $490 to the 2nd most willingtopay, etc. 49 Discriminatory Monopolistic Market Equilibrium p QD,QS 100 p1 =$500 1 50 Discriminatory Monopolistic Market Equilibrium p QD,QS 100 p1 =$500 p2 =$490 1 2 51 Discriminatory Monopolistic Market Equilibrium p QD,QS 100 p1 =$500 p2 =$490 1 2 p3 =$475 3 52 Discriminatory Monopolistic Market Equilibrium p QD,QS 100 p1 =$500 p2 =$490 1 2 p3 =$475 3 53 Discriminatory Monopolistic Market Equilibrium p QD,QS 100 p1 =$500 p2 =$490 1 2 p3 =$475 3 pe
