10) GE Fridges Some GE refrigerators have ice and water dispensers that won't dispense ice or water unless your filter authenticates as an official component produced by GE. Suppose one popular model costs $800 to produce, and each filter costs just $10 to produce. Suppose further that GE has categorized their consumers into two groups: low-volume users, who buy two filters per year and value the water and ice dispensing fridge at $1000, and high-volume users, who buy six filters per year and value the water and ice dispensing fridge at $1200. GE is considering two pricing strategies: Pricing strategy 1: $980 for refrigerator & $10 for filters Pricing strategy 2: $940 for refrigerator & $25 for filters a) Which pricing strategy would GE prefer?

Question 12 In order to bring to South Korea a Therapy-based mental health app, you first need to roughly estimate your market demand. Your market research (country report) yields the following statistics: -Therapy mental health app users in China: 30M -Total adult population in China: 1.2B -Total adult population in Korea: 40M -Smartphone ownership in Korea: 94% -At least "somewhat interested" in mental health products in Korea: 30% -Currently using similar apps (mediation or mindfulness) in Korea: 4M According to the Analogy method, market demand estimate could be: 4M 30M/3 = 10M (because Korean population is one third of the Chinese population) 30M Both options 1) and 2)

The movie theater in Glendon has two types of customers: domestic students (group 1) and international students (group 2). At a price of p, cents, the number of movie tickets that domestic students are willing to buy per year is given by: q₁-170-0.7p₁. At a price of p₂ cents, the number of movie tickets that international students are willing to buy per year is given by: q₂-87-0.3p2. The total costs for the movie theater depend on the total number of tickets sold, 9₁+92, and are given by the following total cost function C(q₁+q₂)=(9₁ +9₂) ². Suppose that the movie theater can identify which students are domestic and which students are international, and students are unable to resell movie tickets to each other. This enables the theater to charge different prices to domestic vs international students. How do the cinema's profits change with this new pricing strategy? In other words, how much are the profits with uniform pricing, minus the profits with differentiated pricing?

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.
From California to New York, legislative bodies across the United States are considering eliminating or reducing the surcharges that banks impose on noncustomers, who make $14 million in withdrawals from other banks’ ATM machines. On average, noncustomers earn a wage of $20 per hour and pay ATM fees of $2.75 per transaction. It is estimated that banks would be willing to maintain services for 5 million transactions at $1.00 per transaction, while noncustomers would attempt to conduct 19 million transactions at that price. Estimates suggest that, for every 1 million gap between the desired and available transactions, a typical consumer will have to spend an extra minute traveling to another machine to withdraw cash.a. Based on this information, what would be the nonpecuniary cost of legislation that would place a $1.00 cap on the fees banks can charge for noncustomer transactions?b. What would be the full economic price of this legislation?
On a small island two farmers, Inger and Johannes, are the only suppliers of freshly dug potatoes for the island's residents, restaurants and tourists. The demand for freshly dug potatoes during the season is given by Q = 1,200 - 30P, where Q is the total quantity sold (measured in kilograms per day) and P is the price (measured i DKK per kilogram). The two farmers produce potatoes in the same way, but their fields are located in different parts of the island, and therefore Inger plants her seed potatoes some days before Johannes. Thus, Johannes can see how many potatoes Inger is going to produce per day during the season before he decides how much he is going to produce. Inger's daily costs are given by C;(q;) = 10q;, where q; is Inger's daily production, and C; are her daily costs. Johannes's costs are similarly given by C;(a;) = 10qj. %3D a) Suppose that Inger has planted potatoes corresponding to a daily production of 300 kilograms. How much will Johannes produce per day if he is…
Hula Products has reintroduced the hula hoop to the world and faces a growing demand for its product in two distinct markets: the United States and Europe. Demand in these markets is: PU = 20 - .1QU and PE = 10 - .05QE., where all quantities are expressed in thousands of units (i.e. QU = 50 means 50 thousand units). Hula can produce hoops at no cost. The maximum Hula can produce is 80 thousand hoops. How many should be sent to Europe (QE)? Enter as a value (answer should be between zero and 80).
I would advise taking the following measures to ensure a successful entry into international markets: Conduct thorough market research to identify potential target countries with a demand for premium-quality stylish clothing. Consider factors like consumer preferences, cultural differences, existing competitors, and potential barriers to entry. There needs to research in regards to the export regulations and requirements of the target countries. Different countries may have specific rules and restrictions on textile imports, labeling, and quality standards. Before entering international markets, ensure that the brand identity is well-established and consistent. Make sure that the premium positioning, quality, and unique selling propositions are communicated clearly through branding and marketing materials. Maintain stringent quality control measures to ensure that the clothing consistently meets or exceeds the premium standards expected by target customers. Reputation is critical in…
