Question :
(TCO A) Suppose you are hired to manage a small manufacturing facility that produces Widgets.
(a.) (15 points) You know from data collected on the Widget Market that market demand and market supply have both
increased recently. As manager of the facility, what decisions should you make regarding production levels and pricing

company. You are being given data on supply and demand for the whole market and are being asked what effect that
has on you as a small part of that market.
(b.) (15 points) Now, suppose that following the supply and demand changes in (a), a substitute good goes up in price,
