FRQ #2:10 Points Total
10 Point Total 1point (A) Drawing and labeling an increase
(rightward shift) in supply. 1point Stating that price decreased and
quantity increased. 2point (B) Price Floor (line) drawn above
equilibrium1point (B.i) Quantity demanded decreases1point (B.ii) Quantity supplied increases2point (B.iii) Consumers surplus decreases
1point (C.i) Price decreased after 1point (C.ii) Qd increased, Qs decreased
Instructions1. Put away you pen and pencils2. Put your name on the bottom of the
page.3. We will grade questions 1, 2, 4, and 64. After grading each question, write in
their score in the blank. ex: ( ____/5)5. Follow the directions explicitly!
1. Key Concepts5 Points Each
5 Point Total 1 Points- Correct definition of Law of Demand
(Inverse relationship between price and QUANTITY demanded)
1 Points- Example of Law of Demand1 Points- Correct definition of Law of Supply
(Direct relationship between price and QUANTITY supplied)
1 Points- Example of Law of Supply1 Points- Clarity of examples
1a. Laws of Demand and Supply
5 Point Total 2 Points- Correct definition of the Law of
Diminishing Marginal Utility(As you consume more of any good, the additional
satisfaction from each new unit will eventually start to decrease)
2 Points- Example of the Law 1 Points- Clarity of example
1b. Laws of Dim. Marg. Utility
5 Point Total 1 Points- Correct definition of normal good(when income increased, demand increases)1 Points- Example of normal good1 Points- Correct definition of inferior good(when income increased, demand decreases)1 Points- Example of inferior good1 Points- Clarity of examples
1c. Normal and Inferior
5 Point Total 1 Points- Correct definition of Consumers Surplus(difference between the amount a buyer is willing
to pay and the price they do pay)1 Points- Example of CS1 Points- Correct definition of Producers Surplus(difference between the price and the sellers
minimum price)1 Points- Example of PS1 Points- Clarity of examples

15 Point Total 1 point- for EACH problem correctly analyzed and
labeled. (14 points)Don’t worry about the shifter.
1 point- if every problem is attempted. No Blanks.
Before grading, quickly check the labeling of each graph.
If any curve is not labeled OR if Pe, Qe, P1 or Q1 are missing mark the answer incorrect.

Question #6:10 Points Total
a. 4 Point Total 1 Points- Correct Marginal Utility for CDs1 Points- Correct Marginal Utility for DVDs1 Points- Correct Marginal Utility per $ for CDs1 Points- Correct Marginal Utility per $ for DVDs
Question #6
b. 3 Point Total 1 Point- for identifying the correct utility
maximizing combination as 2 CDs and 4 DVDs2 Points- Explanation- To find the utility maximizing combination first
you must calculate per dollar (MU/P). (1 point)You continue buying the good with the highest
marginal utility per dollar until you reach the income constraint of $100. (1 point)
Question #6
c. 3 Point Total 1 Point- for identifying the correct utility
maximizing combination as 3 CDs and 5 DVDs2 Points- Explanation- With an additional $30 you should buy one more
CD and one more DVD. (1 point)You continue buying the good with the highest
marginal utility per dollar until you reach the income constraint of $130. (1 point)
