Answer
You're asking about the 14,000 in the context of the previous question. Let's clarify.
In the previous question, we calculated the surplus at a price of 300 FCFA.
- Quantity Supplied at 300 FCFA = 120,000 packets
- Quantity Demanded at 300 FCFA = 40,000 packets
- Surplus = 120,000 - 40,000 = 80,000 packets
The cost to the government was calculated as:
Cost = Surplus × Price
Cost = 80,000 packets × 300 FCFA/packet
Cost = 24,000,000 FCFA
It seems there might be a misunderstanding or a different calculation you are referring to. The number 14,000 does not appear in the calculation for the cost to the government based on the provided table and the price of 300 FCFA.
Could you please specify where you saw the number 14,000? Perhaps it relates to a different part of the question or a different price point?
