People may conclude that Beyonce's duck is good because others are eating in her restaurant (information). People may enjoy eating in the restaurant only if other people are there (network effects). People may value her restaurant more because it is expensive (status effects). i. Draw a demand curve for her restaurant under assumptions of information, network effects, status effects. Do you still have a downward sloping demand curve? Do you necessarily have an equilibrium price and quantity where demand equals marginal cost? ii. If demand curves slope up, will there be an equilibrium between supply and demand? I). {2 points) Can a perfectly competitive business survive? Before a single plane was built, Boeing spent as much as $50 billion on the 7'8? Dreamliner. Planes can then be made at relatively low cost. i.
