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

Hans is a butcher in Washington. The following contains data on prices and weekly sales at his shop Good Beef Chicken Price 9.00/lbs $4.00/lbs Quantity 400 lbs 300 lbs ShS He estimates that the own price elasticity for beef is 2 and for chicken is .75. He also estimates that the cross price elasticity for chicken is .60. His current revenue from the sale of these two goods is making a total of $4800/week. In the spirit of the return to good times and outdoor grilling, he has decided to lower the price of beef for the summer, from $9.00 to $8.55. Overall, Hans can expect to take in dollars in revenue, given the information in this problem? (Revenue = Price x sales). Record your answer without a dollar sign and without a comma. Helpful Hint: In this problem, we are not changing the price of chicken.
