Macmillan Learning The accompanying table shows the maximum price each person in a small office is willing to pay for a memory foam seat cushion. Since each worker only has one chair, no one wants to buy more than one cushion. Use the table to construct an approximate demand curve for memory foam seat cushions. Worker Derrick Max.

In 2018, Amazon raised the annual subscription fee for its Prime membership service, which provides free two-day shiping on many goods and other benefits, from $9 to$19. Piper Jafray, an ivestment bank, estimated tha before the price increase, Prime had 77 milon U.S subscribers.3 The bank speculated that the number of memberswould fall to about 62 million. If so, what is the arc elasticy of demand for a Prime membership?

Your Best Brand Bike Shorts-BBB Shorts have been flying off the shelf. Your chiefeconomist tells you that during the Covid-19 pandemic, the taste for bicycling has shifted. Thedemand curve is much more inelastic. The price elasticity of demand has decreased from:-5.76 to -2.70.”Before the campaign your price was $240 per pair of BBB Shorts. What should bethe new price?  Please show calculations.

Creative Homework/Short Project Assume that you arean entrepreneur who runs a bakery that sells glutenfree breads and cakes. You believe that the currenteconomic conditions merit an increase in the price ofyour baked goods. You are concerned. however, thatincreasing the price might not be profitable becauseyou are unsure of the price elasticity of demand for yourproducts. Develop a plan for the measurement of priceelasticity of demand for your products. What findingswould lead you to increase the price? What findingswould cause you to rethink the decision to increaseprices? Develop a presentation for your class outlining(I) the concept of elasticity of demand, (2) why raisingprices without undetstanding the elasticity would bea bad move. (3) your recommendations for measurement. and (4) the potential impact on profits for elasticand inelastic demand

The price elasticity of demand is more likely to be inelastic if Othere are a lot of substitutes available. O the price of the product is a large fraction of income. Othere is a long time frame involved. O the product is a necessity.

The following table shows three demand schedules for a person who likes toplay football and/or go swimming. In scenario S1, his income is $100,000 per yearand swimming cost $18 each. In scenario S2, his income is also $100,000 peryear, but the price of swimming rises to $22 per round. And in scenario S3, hisincome increases to $140,000 per year while swimming cost $22 per round.A. Use data under S1 and S2 to calculate the cross elasticity of demand for footballat all three prices. (Use the midpoint formula) Is the cross elasticity the same at allthree prices? What type of goods are football and swimming? Why?b. Use data under S2 and S3 to calculate the income elasticity of demand forfootball at all three prices. (Use the midpoint formula) Is the income elasticity thesame at all three prices? Is football an inferior good? Why?Quantity DemandedPrice S1 S2 S3$100 30 20 3070 50 30 6040 80 40 100

10. Deriving demand from an indiference map Frances recently moved to San Diego, where they developed a taste for drinking Americanos and eating danishes. Assume throughout this problem that the price of an Americano is held constant at $3. On the following graph, the purple curves (I and I₂) describe two of Frances's indifference curves. The lines BC, and BC, represent bro budget constraints. Points X and Y show Frances's optimal consumption bundles subject to the budget constraints. AMERICANOS R2Xpe 16 14 DANISHES 12 14 ON 18 AK 20 Given the preceding graph and knowing the price of an Americano is $3, Frances's available income for Americanos and danahes is

The elasticity of supply is most influenced by O portion of the consumer's budget O time O the ability to store output O factor mobility
