At a zero (-0-) price, how many kidneys will be supplied/demanded?
Why would anyone donate a kidney when the price is zero?
What Conclusions can be drawn from the supply/demand for kidneys?
![Page 10: Vincent Jackson Ph.D. Professor Economics & Director Center on Economic & Financial Education Florida State College at Jacksonville Kent Campus 3939 Roosevelt](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070400/56649e5d5503460f94b56294/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Where/how were the supply of kidneys obtained?

The U.S. Economy is describes as a:
Free enterpriseCapitalistMixedMarket Economic System
![Page 13: Vincent Jackson Ph.D. Professor Economics & Director Center on Economic & Financial Education Florida State College at Jacksonville Kent Campus 3939 Roosevelt](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070400/56649e5d5503460f94b56294/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
In order for a Market to exist we must have:Buyer (Demanders)Seller (Suppliers)Product (Kidneys)
When buyers and sellers come together in a market, a price established for the product.
Example: Amazon E-harmony Illegal Drugs Housing Child Pornography

Fundamentals of a Free Market Economy
Freedom of ChoiceSystem of Markets and PricesPrivate ownership of Property (Property

How to use markets to deal with ScarcitySuppose the Federal Government repealed the law banning the sale of Kidneys (ie. a market for Kidneys is established). Can you predict what will happen in
the Kidney market? How will the rise in price effect the
behavior of Suppliers? Can you make any generalizations about the people who might sell a kidney at the equilibrium price but, would not donate a Kidney when the price is zero ($0)
How will the rise in price effect the behavior of Patients?
Can u make any generalizations about the people who might demand a kidney when the price is zero ($0), but will not buy one when the price reaches equilibrium?
![Page 16: Vincent Jackson Ph.D. Professor Economics & Director Center on Economic & Financial Education Florida State College at Jacksonville Kent Campus 3939 Roosevelt](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070400/56649e5d5503460f94b56294/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
According to the graph, how many transplants will occur each year at the new equilibrium?
![Page 17: Vincent Jackson Ph.D. Professor Economics & Director Center on Economic & Financial Education Florida State College at Jacksonville Kent Campus 3939 Roosevelt](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070400/56649e5d5503460f94b56294/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Would a Free Market for Kidneys result in more or fewer deaths each year?
![Page 18: Vincent Jackson Ph.D. Professor Economics & Director Center on Economic & Financial Education Florida State College at Jacksonville Kent Campus 3939 Roosevelt](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070400/56649e5d5503460f94b56294/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Would a free market in kidneys be fair for poor people?
As a supplier of Kidneys?
As a Demander of Kidneys?
![Page 19: Vincent Jackson Ph.D. Professor Economics & Director Center on Economic & Financial Education Florida State College at Jacksonville Kent Campus 3939 Roosevelt](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070400/56649e5d5503460f94b56294/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Suppose the Federal Government instituted a legal market for
kidneys, How would this change the Supply curve? The Demand
curve?
![Page 20: Vincent Jackson Ph.D. Professor Economics & Director Center on Economic & Financial Education Florida State College at Jacksonville Kent Campus 3939 Roosevelt](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070400/56649e5d5503460f94b56294/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Suppose there was a successful campaign to encourage individuals to donate kidneys, what would you expect to happen in the market for kidneys?
