Edison's Fire Engines is the sole seller of fire engines in the fictional country of Pyrotania. Initially, Edison produced eight fire engines, but he has decided to increase production to nine fire engines. The following graph shows the demand curve Edison faces. As you can see, to sell the additional engine, Edison must lower his price from $80,000 to $60,000 per fire engine. Note that while Edison gains revenue from the additional engine he sells, he also loses revenue from the initial eight engines because he sells them all at the lower price. Use the purple rectangle (diamond symbols) to shade the area representing the revenue lost from the initial eight engines by selling at $60,000 rather than $80,000. Then use the green rectangle (triangle symbols) to shade the area representing the revenue gained from selling an additional engine at $60,000. 100 90 PRICE (Thousands of dollars per fire engine) 8 80 70 60 50 40 30 10 0 Edison 0 1 O True 2 O False + 6 3 4 5 7 QUANTITY (Fire…
Imagine that you run the toll authority for a city bridge. You must charge all of your customers the exact same toll. Initially, you have set the price at $2 per trip. The blue line on the following graph shows the weekly demand curve for trips across the city bridge. On the following graph, use the purple rectangle (diamond symbols) to shade the area representing the total weekly revenue when the toll is $2 on the graph. Notice that when you click on the rectangle, the area is displayed. (? 10 TR at $2 8 Demand 7 TR at $3 5 2 1 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 38 40 QUANTITY (Thousands of vehicles per week) An advisor has suggested that you raise the toll to $3, the toll authority would bring in more revenue. To analyze this, use the green rectangle (triangle symbols) to shade the area representing the total weekly revenue when the toll is $3 on the graph. When the toll is $2, total revenue is S per week, but when the toll is $3, total revenue is $ per week. Based on your analysis, you can…
Please read attached article and then use it to answer the following questions. Do companies prefer to sell products that are more elastic or more inelastic? Briefly explain. What does the article describe as the best way to calculate price elasticity, and what other information is relevant to inform marketing efforts? Suppose a marketing company runs a market test and finds that the price elasticity equals -0.6. Would a company be more inclined to increase or to decrease price given this elasticity? Explain what would happen to quantity purchased (by how much it would change) and total revenue (would it increase, decrease, or stay the same) if the company were to decrease price by 10%.
Please dont use excel. Calculate to paper.
How would you expect the elasticity of demand for each of the following products to compare with the price elasticity of demand for standard car tires? Explain your answer. a. Snow tires (not necessary, but handy on snowy days) b. School bus tires (purchased with tax dollars on a fixed schedule) c. Bicycle tires (which require a smaller portion of a consumer's income than car tires) d. Tires made by the most reputable company (more of a luxury than a necessity)

Your father owns a tourist site. He currently charges $5 per person who visits the site. Both Ghanaians and foreigners visit the site. The first demand curve is foreigners and the second is for Ghanaians. After your Econs 101 course you have realized that there may be a way to increase total revenue for your father. Using the demand curves below, answer the following questions. What is your father’s current total revenue for the 2 groups? The elasticity of demand is more elastic in which group or market? Which market has the more inelastic demand? 1 mark What is the elasticity of demand between the prices of $5 and $2 in the foreign market? Is this elastic or inelastic? What is the elasticity of demand between $5 and $3 in the Ghanaian market? Is this elastic or inelastic? Given the graphs and what you studied about economics, you recommend to your father to increase the price of foreigners to $8 each and lower the price of a Ghanaians to $3. How much could your father increase total…
