Suppose that with the supply and demand for oil as in Exercise 39, the government sets the price at $264 per unit.
(a) Use the supply function to calculate the quantity that will be produced at the new price.
(b) Find the consumers’ surplus for the new price, using the quantity found in part (a) in place of the equilibrium quantity. How much larger is this than the consumers’ surplus in Exercise 39?
(c) Find the producers’ surplus for the new price, using the quantity found in part (a) in place of the equilibrium quantity. How much smaller is this than the producers’ surplus in Exercise 39?

(d) Calculate the difference between the total of the consumers’ and producers’ surplus under the equilibrium price and under the government price. Economists refer to this loss as the welfare cost of the government’s setting the price.
