Answer to Question 1

No, the market for the digital camera is not currently in equilibrium because there is a shortage of the camera at the current price of 300 . This implies that the market equilibrium price is greater than 300 .

Answer to Question 2

Increasing returns to scale implies that an increase in the firm's scale of production leads to lower average costs per unit produced.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
