Discuss itsimpact using supply and demand curves on the Following markets. You need to select onegraph with your discussion For each quesTon.a.How will the demand or supply curve change in the markets For nursing schooling?How will it a²ect the changes in equilibrium tuiTon (Price) and number oF nursingstudents (QuanTty)? (10%)b.³rom a, how the demand or supply curve change in the labor markets For nurses?How will it a²ect the changes in equilibrium wage (Price) and number oF nurses(QuanTty)? (10%)c.³rom b, how the demand or supply curve change in the markets For health services?How will it a²ect the changes in equilibrium charge amount (Price) and number oFservices (QuanTty)? (10%)2.±he Following graphs is a demand curve and a supply curve For the market oF ´u shot service.However, this equilibrium is done without the consideraTon oF externaliTes at eitherdemand side or supply side. We assume this equilibrium is done by a private marginalbeneft (demand) curve and a private marginal cost (supply) curve.a.±he consumers purchase this service without considering “herd protecTon”, whichmeans the protecTon oF the unvaccinated populaTon in addiTon to consumersthemselves. Discuss the type oF externality exisTng For this case. Indicate a posiTveor negaTve externality at demand or supply side. (10%)
