The conditions for buyers and sellers in a market are originally given by the following demand and supply equations:
Q_(d)=80-2p;Q_(s)=-10+p.
However, a change in the economic environment of sellers shifts their supply curve, and the. NEW supply equation becomes:
Q_(s)=5+p.
Comparing the new equilibrium (Q_(1)^(**),p_(1)^(**)) to the old equilibrium (Q_(0)^(**),p_(0)^(**)), what happens to the total costs of the sellers?
