Suppose that the elasticity of demand at a given price level is E(p)%3D1.5. What does that mean? Select both the correct answer to elastic, unit, or inelastic as well as what the company should do to increase revenue. O Since E(p)>1, demand is unit. Since E(p)>1, demand is elastic. O The company should leave prices alone as the revenue is currently maximized. O Since E(p)> 1, demand is inelastic. The company should raise prices to raise revenue. The company should lower prices to raise revenue.
Gr8 Ideaz Inc. has determined that the demand function for their heated socks is given by: 5 7P². a. Find E(p), the Elasticity of Demand as a function of price, p. E(p) = b. Find the Elasticity of Demand when heated socks are selling at a price of $10. Give result accurate to at least 3 decimal places. E(10) = c. At this price ($10): We would say the demand for heated socks is: Select an answer Based on this, in order to increase revenue we should: Select an answer d. Use the Elasticity model to determine the price that maximizes revenue. (Round result to 2 decimal places.) D(p) = = 345- p=
Suppose that the demand curve for a product is given by = 100 – 2 Px+a Py, = £20 is the price of another product, and where a Py %3D where Px = £20, where = 8. a) Calculate the demand for good X in this market at the current price level. How much revenue would the firm make? b) If the firm wishes to increase total revenue, would it need to increase or decrease the current price of good X? c) Calculate the cross-price point elasticity between goods X and Y at the current price level. Are the goods complements or substitutes? Note: The writing is clear and abbreviations are not allowed.

A1). The price, p, that a bookstore charges for a special gift edition of a popular trilogy is related to the demand, q, by the equation 100pq + q? = 5,000,000. Suppose the price is currently set at $40. (a). At what rate is the demand currently changing with respect to this price? (Include units) (b). At what rate is the revenue currently changing with respect to this price? (Hint: use the chain rule). (Include units). (c). Suppose the demand is currently increasing at a rate of 50 copies per month. How fast is the price currently changing per month? (again, assume the price is currently $40).Include units.
The following estimates have been obtained for the market demand for cereal In Q= 9.01- 0.68 In P+0.75In A-1.3M, where Q is the quantity of cereal,P is the price of cereal,A is the level of adverstising, and M is income.

Suppose that the management of Sun City resort is trying to understand the income elasticity of their resort. As an advisor, they provide you with the following figures;If the average income of visitors is R3 000 (which is the current income), then 45 000 visitors visit Sun City resort each year and if the average income increases to R5 000, then 60 000 visitors visit Sun City resort each year. 1.
