Price-Quantity Relationship and Profitability in the U.S. Peanut Industry

Description: The research project objective is to apply the inverse demand framework to analyze price-quantity relationships and profitability in the U.S. peanut industry. This is a take-home research project. It includes an empirical price analysis, which involves estimating a price-dependent demand function for peanuts at the farm-gate level and an analytical analysis of four market scenarios differing due to peanut quantity produced, peanut price, and industry profit. These market scenarios are a peanut oversupply scenario, a perfectly competitive industry scenario, a small degree of seller market power scenario, and a hypothetical monopoly scenario. The answer key is provided.
