Cresco Labs is the largest cannabis producer in the U.S.A. Let's assume the Cresco Labs finds that total revenue decreased when price of marijuana was lowered from $5 to $4 per ounce. It was also found that total revenue decreased when price was raised from $5 to $6 per ounce. Thus, we can conclude that: Multiple Choice   $5 is not the equilibrium price of marijuana.    the demand for marijuana is inelastic above $5 and elastic below $5.   the demand for marijuana is elastic both above and below $5.   the demand for marijuana is elastic above $5 and inelastic below $5.   it is clear that diminishing marginal utility for the consumption of marijuana has set in.

Q. Wilpen Company, a price-setting firm, produces nearly 80 percent of all tennis balls purchased in the United States. Wilpen estimates the U.S. demand for its tennis balls by using the following linear specification: Q = a + bP + cM + dPR. Where Q is the number of cans of tennis balls sold quarterly, P is the wholesale price Wilpen charges for a can of tennis balls, M is the consumers’ average household income, and PR is the average price of tennis rackets. The regression results are as follows: a- Discuss the statistical significance of the parameter estimates a^, b^, c^, and d^ using the p-values. Are the signs of b^, c^, and d^ consistent with the theory of demand? Wilpen plans to charge a wholesale price of $1.65 per can. The average price of a tennis racket is $110, and consumers’ average household income is $24,600. b. What is the estimated number of cans of tennis balls demanded? c) At the values of P, M, and Pr given, what are the estimated values of the price (E^), income…

Suppose income increases by 25 percent and, as a result, the quantity of a particular brand of automobile demanded (holding the price for this particular automobile constant) increases by 39 percent. The income elasticity of demand for this brand of car is (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places and include a minus sign if appropriate.)

Jim's Camera shop sells two high-end cameras, the Sky Eagle and Horizon. The demand for these two cameras are as follows (DS = demand for the Sky Eagle, Ps is the selling price of the Sky Eagle, DH is the demand for the Horizon and PH is the selling price of the Horizon): Ds = 230 - 0.5 Ps + 0.38 PH DH = 260 + 0.1 Ps - 0.62 PH The store wishes to determine the selling price that maximizes revenue for these two products. Select the revenue function for these two models. Choose the correct answer below.   (i) Ps Ds + PHDH = PH(260 - 0.1 Ps - 0.62 PH) + Ps(230 - 0.5 Ps + 0.38 PH) (ii) Ps Ds - PH DH = Ps(230 - 0.5 Ps + 0.38 PH) - PH(260 - 0.1 Ps - 0.62 PH) (iii) Ps Ds + PH DH = Ps(230 - 0.5 Ps + 0.38 PH) + PH(260 + 0.1 Ps - 0.62 PH) (iv) Ps Ds - PH DH = Ps(230 + 0.5 Ps + 0.38 PH) - PH(260 - 0.1 Ps - 0.62 PH)   Answer: Option 3   Find the prices that maximize revenue. Do not round intermediate calculations. If required, round your answers to two decimal places. Optimal Solution:…

one demand function is linear and the other is called a constant elasticity demand function. Using data tables, show that the price elasticity in the linear demand function is not constant in price, and show that the price elasticity is constant in the constant elasticity demand function.

The municipal corporations in most parishes in Jamaica have initiated a program to charge residents for garbage disposal based on the number of cans filled per week. The parish of Kingston decided to increase its per-can price from $500 to $750 per week. In the first week, it was found that the number of cans that were brought to the curb fell from 500 to 450 (although the workers complained that the cans were heavier). The chief economist ran the numbers, informed the mayor that the demand for disposal was inelastic, and recommended that the price be raised to maximize town revenue from the program. Four months later, at a price of $1000 per can, the number of cans has fallen to 125 and town revenues are down. What might have happened?

You have been asked to analyze what will happen to the New England market for electricity if the Winter 2022-23 (December 2022 through February 2023) results in much colder temperatures than Winter 2021-22 (December 2021 through February 2022), causing all residential customers to scramble for more electricity than they would typically need to heat their homes. Using your graph from Question 2, analyze the impact of this change in consumer desire for more electricity. Clearly show any shifts in demand and/or supply curve(s) that came about because of this exit. Label any shifted curves as D2 and/or S2. Clearly show the new market equilibrium. Label the new equilibrium price as P2 and equilibrium quantity transacted as Q2

Johnson's Household Products has a division that produces two types of toothpaste: a regular toothpaste and a whitening tooth paste. The demand equations that relate the prices, p and q (in dollars per thousand units), to the quantities demanded weekly, x and y (in units of a thousand), of the regular toothpaste and the whitening toothpaste are given by p=3000-20 x-10 yp=3000−20x−10y and q=4000-10 x-30 yq=4000−10x−30y respectively. The fixed cost attributed to the division is $20,000/week, and the cost for producing 1000 tubes of regular and 1000 tubes of whitening toothpaste is$400 and $500, respectively. a. What is the weekly total revenue function R(x, y)? b. What is the weekly total cost function C(x, y)? c. What is the weekly profit function P(x, y)? d. How many tubes of regular and whitening toothpaste should be produced weekly to maximize the division's profit? What is the maximum weekly profit?
