e. A decrease in the price of electricity from $5.75 to $5.25 per kilowatt hour causes an increase in the quantity demanded of electric cars from 520,000 to 1 million. The numerical value of cross-price elasticity is Electricity and electric cars are complementary products.

When the local pizza parlor prices pizzas at $12 each, it generally sells 7000 pizzas per month. If it lowers the price to $10, sales increase to 9000 pizzas per month. Given this information, we know that the price elasticity of demand for pizza is about 1.38, and an increase in price from $10 to $12 results in a decrease in total revenue. 0.72, and an increase in price from $10 to $12 results in an increase in total revenue. 0.72, and an increase in price from $10 to $12 results in a decrease in total revenue. 1.38, and an increase in price from $10 to $12 results in an increase in total revenue.

The short run elasticity of demand between palm oil and soybean oil is 0.103. The quantity demanded for palm oil is 10 million metric tonnes at the current price USD 1480 per metric ton of soybean oil. Calculate the quantity demanded of palm oil if the price per metric ton of soybean oil decreases to USD 1400.

The demand function for a certain make of ink-jet cartridge is the following where p is the unit price in dollars and x is the quantity demanded each week, measured in units of a thousand. p= -0.02x² -0.2x+6 Compute the elasticity of demand when x = 11. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) 0.22 Determine whether the demand is inelastic, unitary, or elastic when x = 11. elastic inelastic O unitary

According to data from the U.S. Department of Energy, sales of the fuel-efficient Toyota Prius hybrid fell from 194,108 vehicles sold in 2014 to 180,603 in 2015. Over the same period, according to data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the average price of regular gasoline fell from $3.36 to $2.43 per gallon. Using the midpoint method, calculate the cross-price elasticity of demand between Toyota Priuses and regular gasoline. According to your estimate of the cross-price elasticity, are the two goods complements or substitutes? Does your answer make sense?

At Webs-R-Us, a website design company, the new manager has decided to increase the price of Webs-R-Us services by 45%. She estimates that the price elasticity of demand for Webs-R-Us is −0.70. The manager expects the number of websites designed to decrease by?

Using data on automobile purchases, P. McCarty (REStat 1996) estimated the following elasticities for compact cars sold in the United States. Own elasticity of demand Income Elasticity Cross Price* - 0.87 1.70 .82 * Responsiveness of demand for compact cars to changes in the price of other types of car models, such as luxury cars. а) What is the percent change in quantity demanded for compact cars given a 2 percent decrease in the price of compact cars? b) What is the percent change in demand for compact cars given a 2 percent decrease in the price of other car models? c) What is the percent change in demand for compact cars given a 2 percent decrease in income? d) Is demand for compact cars elastic or inelastic? Explain briefly. e) Would a decrease in the price of compact cars generate more or less revenue from the sale of compact cars? f) Are compact cars a normal or inferior good? Explain briefly. 5.
